The afterthought is the fear and thinking in life

If I rated other TVs with five stars, this one would get 12 stars.

Had it not been for the strong recommendation of my godfather and husband, I would have never cared about the Syfy channel marathon, and it was impossible to cancel the National Day on July 4th, stay at home and watch the Twilight Zone all day, even drinking water. When going to the toilet, you have to check the advertising time.

Twilight Zone is not a ghost film, there is no black and white impermanence or devil contract.
Since the first season of 1959, it has only been black and white, and the special effects are sometimes extremely rough.
This does not prevent it from still having a strange attraction.
It challenges the normal order of human society, the subconscious, fantasy, and the supernatural forces that we have not had time to find the answer.
It makes people think.
Sometimes it can even bring a deep sense of horror, the kind of horror that I still think of after watching the film N for a long time, so horrified that it makes me feel that being a normal person is not so terrible.

This TV series is full of the shadows of many later science fiction films, but Rod Serling was stunned to be able to condense brilliant ideas into a half-hour film.
There is also a wonderful title, even in today's proliferation of high-tech special effects, it is still the proud originator.

========== The following spoilers, read carefully ========
Tell me about the very vivid film I remember so far

1.
A beautiful lady was hospitalized with an illness, she was thirsty in the middle of the night, seconds Zhong ticked, got up to take the cup but broke it. Then she heard footsteps, so she walked out of the ward to vaguely saw a nurse in the elevator, the door was almost closed. She followed the nurse to the basement and saw Room 22, from which a cold and weird nurse lady said quietly, "Room for one more?" She was scared and ran away.
When she told the doctor, the doctor thought she was dreaming. But in fact, there is room 22 in the basement, and there is indeed a nurse, but the two nurses do not look alike at all. The doctor also thought it was weird.
Then the same thing happened again: midnight, thirsty, ticking, broken cup, footsteps, elevator, underground, 22, nurse, Room for one more? The beautiful lady ran away in fright.
Later, the lady was diagnosed as being overworked. After taking a good rest, she was discharged from the hospital and boarded the plane. The weird feeling came again when she boarded the plane. The hour hand was ticking, the cup was broken, and the sound of footsteps was getting closer and closer. This time she was awake. . She still insisted on walking up the stairs, eh, that stewardess was a scary nurse, or faintly said'Room for one more?' The poor beauty was so scared that she crawled and fled back to the airport.
The plane exploded.
Is it like "Reaper is coming"?

2.
A criminal was shot and killed by the police while on the run. His guardian angel accompanied him to the luxury suite, went to the casino to gamble and made a lot of money, and there were many beautiful women playing with him. This is the case every day, gambling to make money, the beauty of the car. . . . Knowing that he was tired of living in heaven one day and blaming his guardian angel, he knew that it was not heaven but hell.

3. After
a couple drunk and drove to an uninhabited town, everything in it was fake.
Only the laughter of a girl appeared in the air from time to time.
The furniture is fake, the tree is fake, and even the grass is fake.
It was hard to find the train, it was also going around in circles and couldn't get out of this weird town.
Just when the two of them were desperate, a huge hand grabbed them. It turns out that this hand belongs to the little girl, and the town is a toy for the little girl, and this couple (relatively very small) was caught by her father from the earth to play with her daughter.

Is it like the ending of'Men in Black'?

4.
A couple stole a camera from a boutique. Its amazing thing is that it can take pictures of the next 5 minutes in the same location. As a result, they went to the racecourse to gamble, and then they were killed by their insatiable greed.

5. A man accidentally discovered that his pocket watch can stop time, and he can do anything alone, such as holding money in the bank vault, such as arranging flowers on someone he hates. I thought he would live a happy life from now on. . . . As a result, his watch was broken. He was the only one in the world who could walk around. No matter how he shouted and shook, everyone else was still.

6. A girl is nearly 19. At this time, she must choose one of several human figures as the target of surgery. In the years to come, she will really stay young forever. But she resisted. She missed her dead father and longed for independent thinking.
In In time, does the self-maintaining stance come from here?

7. There was no electricity in a community at night, and the residents were wondering. After a while, some homes had electricity, which caused the residents to wonder if aliens were in it and kill each other. . . . It turns out that aliens are indeed here, but they use the power grid to create humans' own melee and profit from it.

All these thoughts are thought-provoking, and they have also achieved the milestone insurmountable height of Twilight Zone.
