Synopsis:

Explore the depths of the unknown in this complete collection of episodes from the Twilight Zone. Funny at times, heartbreaking at others, the Twilight Zone was one of the most unique and inventive television shows ever created. Rod Serling developed the series on the premise of watching people experience things so bizarre they can only be part of a fifth dimension. Serling appears at the start and finish of each episode, acting as the viewers guide through the Twilight Zone. Consistently compelling, moral and thought provoking, the series still inspires remakes and contemporary spin-offs. All 156 episodes from the classic show are collected here.

Many years after the end of World War II, a man named Peter Jenson (William Bendix) visits a psychoanalyst, Dr. Gillespie (Martin Balsam). Jenson tells of a recurring dream where he tries to warn people about the "sneak attack" on Pearl Harbor, but in his dream the warnings are disregarded. Dr. Gillespie insists that time travel is impossible given the nature of temporal paradoxes. Jenson finally reveals that he was actually in Honolulu on December 7, 1941. While on the couch, Jenson falls asleep once again and dreams that the Japanese planes flying overhead shoot and kill him. In Dr. Gillespie's office, the couch Jenson was lying on is now empty. Dr. Gillespie goes to a bar where he finds Jenson's picture on the wall. The bartender tells him that Jenson had tended there, but was killed during the Pearl Harbor attack.

Rod Serling's seminal anthology series focused on ordinary folks who suddenly found themselves in extraordinary, usually supernatural, situations. The stories would typically end with an ironic twist that would see the guilty punished.
