With the entire original run of The Twilight Zone available to watch instantly, we’re partnering with Twitch Film to cover all of the show’s 156 episodes. Are you brave enough to watch them all with us? The Twilight Zone (Episode #97): “The Gift” (airdate 4/27/62) The Plot:  An alien lands in Mexico with a gift, but an accidental death casts a shadow over his intentions and drives the villagers mad. The Goods: There are few adult drama stories in The Twilight Zone series as simmering as this one. It’s so slow burn that you might think they forgot to light the fuse. The plot sweats along as the visitor who calls himself Mr. Williams and looks like a poor man’s Marlon Brando (Geoffrey Horne) accidentally kills a police officer during his descent and is shot twice by another cop on the scene. He staggers into a bar where a doctor removes the bullet wounds, a young boy named Pedro (Edmund Vargas) takes an interest in him, and a bartender holds him captive until more police can arrive.

Sure, these posters look like they are turning out great, but there’s a noticeable lack of any robotic, gold-plated owls.
