Twillight:


But it feels like forever, and its hard to be strong..

***************************************



Talking about twilight, I remembered the series 'Twilight Zone' which I never miss a slot when I was a little many years ago (ouch..:p). The story was about the other dimension.. a place where all the scary things that existed inside your mind comes alive. Bad things happened to bad people in a 'karma' way.

One of the stories that I remembered was about an old maid who was waiting for her father to die. The father was an ungrateful man and treated the daughter like a domestic helper. One night they had a fight and ugly words were exchanged. The next day her father died, the woman was happy thinking that she was free at last. A will was opened with her father leaving her his whole fortune and a key to a room at the basement. Opening it, there was a robot with her father's mind and voice who immediately took control of the woman's life again.

Brr.. just thinking about it makes cat's skin crawl. The scary background music is certainly one of the main attraction of the movie. Even if the movie is in black and white and with practically little special effects, the story line and acting sure makes it believable and scary.

The introduction was one of the best intro ever:
There is a fifth dimension beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination. It is an area which we call the Twilight Zone.
