Editorial Review:

Description:
Episodes: "Judgment Night" (Ep. 10, December 4, 1959) - In 1942, a German (Nehemiah Persoff) wonders why he's on the deck of a British steamship, with no memory of how he got there, and an overwhelming sense of impending doom. "The Purple Testament" (Ep. 19, January 12, 1960) - Lt. Fitzgerald has found his own special wartime hell. Looking into the faces of his men prior to battle, he has the disquieting ability to see who is about to die. "The Obsolete Man" (Ep. 65, June 2, 1961) - In a future state where religion and books have been banned, a librarian (Burgess Meredith) is judged obsolete by the Chancellor (Fritz Weaver) and sentenced to death. "A Quality of Mercy" (Ep. 80, December 29, 1961) - A soldier (Dean Stockwell) gets a new perspective on war when he is forced to experience it from the enemy's point of view.




Rating: - What World War II was like in "The Twilight Zone"
The common denominator for three of the four episodes on Volume 13 of "The Twilight Zone" is World War II, although since the fourth system deals with a totalitarian society that is clearly patterned on a fascistic state.

Rating: - Brilliantly Retrospective Episodes from Rod Searling
The Twilight Zone: Vol. 13 contains four episodes written by Rod Searling.

It is a very ominous and atmospheric episode and plays out very well beginning with Bernard Herrmann's opening title music. Patrick McNee and James Franciscus are also featured. THE OBSOLETE MAN from the Second Season is a futuristic tale that pits Burgess ... Read More

Rating: - extraordinary thought provoking episodes
Four episode that are exceptionally well acted, superbly written and brought to life by some of the most brilliant actors of the period, with the best episode ever filmed: THE PURPLE TESTIMENT stars the underrated and gorgeous William Reynolds (The Gallent Men, FBI) and Dick York. Reynolds suddenly has acquired the unwanted ability to see look in a man's face and tell when he is going to die. JUDGMENT NIGHT stars the great Nehemiah Persoff as a man trapped on a ship doomed to be torpedoed, with no ... Read More

Rating: - Good episodes with eventually well known actors
Three of the four stories in this DVD deal with war... and the one that doesn't is the best of all. In "Judgement Night" (Season 1) a passenger on a war-time ship has a premonition that the boat will sink at certain hour (cast includes James Franciscus). "A Quality of Mercy" (Season 3) is a powerful story about the horrors of the war, where a young liuetenant (Dean Stockwell) suddenly finds himself as a soldier on the enemy side, looking at things with a whole new perspective (the episode also ...
