Unlocking the Door to

a Television Classic

By Martin Grams

If you’ve been getting the most out of Halloween, you’ve never given much thought to how so many of its customs and icons came to be associated with the holiday. You’ve just been having fun.

Halloween has a more complex and colorful history than you ever imagined. You’ll be more fascinated with it than ever if you learn all about it. You know it has its roots in ancient times, but are you aware just how far back it goes? Farther than you can imagine. And its elements came from an amazing variety of cultures throughout the world.

What do you want when you sit down to watch a film out of your collection? Superb entertainment? Sure. Laughter? Something you’ll love so much you never get tired of watching it? Maybe even something that has some historic value? Oh, I could list more things that you want to get out of it and they’d all apply to the art of Buster Keaton. You can’t go wrong with Buster Keaton. One of the best collections of his works you’ll ever find is this set of all his silent short films from 1920 to 1923.

We at Fielding’s Review always strive to give you readers coverage of what you request, and this is one time we fully agree with your emails. There are no silent film series funnier or more ingenious than these nineteen shorts Keaton made between 1920 and 1923, which includes all of Chaplin’s Keystone comedies.

There is a dimension to The Twilight Zone beyond that which is known to fans. It is a dimension as vast as 1080p and as timeless as the series itself. It shows off the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the sides of the set’s enclosures and the surface of its DVDs. This is the dimension of blu-ray. It is a dimension which we call The Twilight Zone: Season 4.
