TOL; Mutation & Transformation Collection.., June 15, 2010
This review is from: The Outer Limits (The New Series) - Mutation & Transformation Collection (DVD)
I like episodic television; especially of the anthology sort (Twilight Zone, Tales from the Crypt, etc.)
The New Outer Limits has done a good job of having these sets that focus on a certain theme (mutation, the after-life, aliens). I for one like this format, because you can pick and choose a certain theme, and yet get varied episodes within that genre. In other words, you good a good variety of stories.
There are several theme dvd sets to choose from, something for everyone with different tastes.
This particular set, "Mutation & Transformation" was entertaining, also providing a moral at the end of each episode about the moral and ethical implications of bio-engineering for example.
** Thought provoking--- highly recommended **
