‘The Twilight Zone: Essential Episodes’ Coming to DVD for the 55th Anniversary

55 years ago, television and the genre as a whole would be changed by an amazing show called The Twilight Zone. Rod Serling’s show was a heavy influence on my childhood. While you can pick up the individual seasons on DVD and Blu-Ray, I always thought it would be nice to introduce someone new to the series with some of my favorite episodes. Image Entertainment will be fulfilling the need with The Twilight Zone: Essential Episodes when it hits DVD in July. Read onward for the press release and find out what episodes are essential.
