Good

another story of human behavior faced with survival. Cute ending. Good acting helps the story, otherwise not that well written.

A Very M. Night Shyamalan-Type Story

Although this episode is a re-hashing of one of the classic Rod Sterling Twilight Zone scripts from the show's original run, it very much seems in the vain of many popular plot techniques used in movies today, particularly those by M. Night Syamalan.

I know that saying "I like the original better" is an outdated cliche as far as reviews go, but in this case, I feel that it's justified. Both the original and this new adaptation unfortunately suffer from the weakness of a disappointing ending.

As usual in these Twilight Zone radio dramas, the acting, production, and sound fx are fantastic, regardless of what the story may be.

7.05 / 10.00

Another essay on human behavior

Like "The Shelter", another story of human behavior faced with survival. Cute ending. Good acting helps the story, otherwise not that well written.
