While some of the Twilight Zone series may not translate well to audio, this one is made for it.

I’ve heard two other episodes by Mike Starr and this is one of his best performances. Very go narration and storyline. Though it took me about 10 minutes to get into it. Highly recommended.

Mike Starr is great

A nightmarish episode about a machine hating writer. A tad one dimensional perhaps, but effective. Mike Starr does a good job as the increasingly frantic lead.

A luddite nightmare.

I really like Mike Starr as an actor, but this radio drama is a low point for him...

As I listened to this episode of The Twilight Zone radio series, it almost seemed like even the people acting in the drama knew that what they were making wasn't very good.

For the most part, TZ plots are clever and well thought out. This story was neither.
If I had to sum this story up in one word, it would be "Bad".

Do yourself a favor & pass on this one.
