Spoiler alert: We’re discussing important portions of this Twilight Zone episode, so if you have not yet seen the episode, I encourage you to watch it first, and then come back and enjoy our analysis. This week, we're analyzing the Twilight Zone episode "The Invaders," starring Agnes Moorehead. A simple woman trying to make some dinner is suddenly visited by creatures from another planet. Who are these invaders? What do they want? Our leading lady doesn't know. But, she does know that they need to leave her home. And what ensues is a primal war: hunter vs hunted, prey vs predator. Only one side can win. Who will come out victorious? Well, you'll have to watch the episode first and then come back here for the analysis. We'll talk about how likely this scenario is for the human race; we'll dive into whether or not our leading lady is a hero like Ellen Ripley; and I'll reveal my moment of awe, a thank you to three key people involved in the making of this great episode. So, grab your keys, and let's unlock this door to the fifth dimension. As always, spoiler alert. If you have note seen the episode, go check it out and then come back here for the analysis.
