The BBC has made arrangements to carry the famous Twilight Zone Radio Dramas from producer Carl Amari. For those of us familiar, Stacy Keach’s rich voice fills the role of narrator once held by the iconic Rod Serling for the original television series. In an io9 article, we discover that ten episodes will be released featuring the voice work of such well known actors as Jane Seymour, Jim Caviezel, Michael York, Malcolm McDowel and many others.
Curiously, the first episode An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge was originally a silent French short film that Rod purchased the rights for and modified for the Twilight Zone. So fascinating to see how the voiceless is given voice in a new generation. But that’s the power of the Twilight Zone, and the power of radio drama. Look for the episodes on BBC 4 coming soon!
