Check your reality at the door! On September 7, New Line Home Entertainment takes fans into a world of fantasy and suspense with "The Twilight Zone," a deluxe, six-disc set that includes all 43 episodes of the hit television series. Hosted by actor/filmmaker Forest Whitaker, "The Twilight Zone" is an edgy, fast-paced anthology series updated for modern audiences. "The Twilight Zone" DVD set is available at a $59.98 SRP.

A cast of today's brightest stars -- including Jessica Simpson, Jaime Pressly, Shannon Elizabeth, Jason Bateman, Amber Tamblyn, multi-platinum R&B artist Usher, Jason Alexander, Lou Diamond Phillips, Vivica A. Fox, Dylan Walsh, Portia de Rossi, Patrick Warburton, comedian Paul Rodriquez, Eriq La Salle and many more -- journey into a world where ordinary people exist in beyond-extraordinary situations.

One of the most popular programs of its time, the original "The Twilight Zone" (created and written by Rod Serling) ran from 1959 to 1964. The series featured a collection of fascinating tales that ranged from the tragic to the comedic, and the stories were usually laced with a wicked sense of humor and unexpected endings.

The DVD set of the updated "The Twilight Zone" includes remakes of two popular classic episodes -- "The Eye of the Beholder," with Molly Sims (the original starred Donna Douglas of "The Beverly Hillbillies" fame) and "The Monsters on Maple Street," starring Andrew McCarthy (the original starred Claude Akins). Also of note is "It's Still a Good Life," a sequel to "It's a Good Life," which stars Bill Mumy and Cloris Leachman, cast members from the original "The Twilight Zone" episode.

"The Twilight Zone" DVD set is presented in widescreen (1.78:1), with audio selections including 5.1 Surround Sound (English), DTS Surround Sound, Stereo Surround Sound (English), English and Spanish subtitles and Closed Captions.
