Leonard Maltin/Plot synopsis: |
Dan Aykroyd and Albert Brooks provide entertaining prologue for four unusual tales (three actual remakes from Rod Serling's classic TV series), but none of them provides all-important moment of revelation that made the show so memorable... and more tellingly, none improves on the original. Best--final segment, remake of ``Nightmare at 20,000 Feet,'' with Lithgow as terrified airline passenger, though even this episode is more explicit (and therefore less intriguing) than '60s TV version.
