Review of The Invaders

The Twilight Zone: The Invaders (1961)
Season 2, Episode 15
Starring The Spaceship
8 March 2024
Little aliens in a house.

I normally like the science fiction themed Zones and always like the Zones with a Forbidden Planet (1956) connection - so I like this episode, right? Wrong.

The Forbidden Planet spaceship is more interesting to look at than the woman.

The episode was fine on first viewing because I enjoyed the twist at the end. But the problems start when you make repeat viewings. It becomes a little boring and the non-speaking woman gets on your nerves a bit.

My suggestion, watch it once and never again. If you do that The Invaders is fine. The music cues would be reused in several other Zone episodes.
