to me the scareiest scene in the TWILIGHT ZONE is:

Nightmare at 20,000 Feet in this picture

For me it's the scene where Jerry Etherson (Cliff Robertson) tries to leave Willy behind in "The Dummy." There are three scenes in that episode that are scarier for me than any scene in any other episode. That's why it's my 2nd-favorite episode.

The ending of the episode "The Masks."

I think the most scariest scene was in the episode of eye of
the beholder, after the bandages are removed from the woman.
We find out she is what we would think is beautiful and doctors
and nurses are ugly pig like creatures

To me, Twilight Zone is all about psychological horror. So psychologically speaking, the Willabee, episode is the scariest. The one with the man on the train and he gets off that one stop but really kills himself. There's nothing scary looking about it. Just the moral and the story is frightening!!

The episode where the old widow keeps getting these phone calls at night, only noone is on the other end.. except a soft whisper or the sound of breathing. She later learns that it's her fiance. It's when we see the phone line fallen across his headstone..

Frischman_Fan · 12-23-2003, 05:54 PM

Yeah, that one and the episode where the lady that takes a road trip and keeps seeing this weird hitchhiker and at the end realizes she's been dead the whole time!!

When the late Steve McQueen's character hand was tied down and was trying to light the lighter ten times straight and if he missed, his pinky would be chopped off. But then the man who was making the dare against him wife came in and stopped the whole thing and showed her pinky and fourth finger cut off doing the same thing as she was uncovering her bandage!!

Um . . . this was not a Zone. Sounds way too grisly ever to have been a Zone.

I know practically nothing about Night Gallery, but could it have been one of those?

I remember this it was on "Alfred Hitchcock Presents". Great episode.

ficlopri · 12-28-2003, 09:34 PM

Scenes in Elegy. THe beauty contest and the hotel scene.

ficlopri · 12-28-2003, 09:37 PM

Yes, the Steve McQueen lighter ep was definitely an AHP ep. I saw it. I don't think it was very gruesome. He was in another AHP, about aliens from outer space. McQueen was never on TZ.

"The Hitchhiker" is a really scary one. Another one for me would also have to be "He's Alive" this is the episode where Dennis Hopper plays a man who starts a hate group after talking to a figure in the shadows, the way they did the figure in the shadow is really a frightening thing to see.

The Hitchhiker is a great choice, Jrnygrl.
