Twilight Zone Fan Parody/Teaser: A Short Drink from a Certain Fountain

Here's one of "The Twilight Zone" episodes that is rarely seen. It is not included in the syndication lineup but is included in the series DVD set. Those episodes left out of syndication are usually from being tied up in litigation for one reason or another. In this case, someone else claims the idea for the story. "A Short Drink from a Certain Fountain" examines a married couple that are separated in age by 40 years. A sugar-daddy hubby with his pretty, money-loving, young and active trophy-wife. But enough with the name-calling hyphenation. The older man, for some reason, wants to keep his gorgeous, self-absorbed wife badly enough, that he submits to a youth-generating drug that his younger brother developed and has only applied it to animals. It works! And works and works. I epitomize the story in this 4+ minute teaser made up of key clips. I cut out a spoiler.
I am a BIG fan of The Twilight Zone series of the sixties. It was groundbreaking, original and copied nothing. It did not, could not present these "fanciful tales" as real but rather surreal. As Rod Serling put it, they are stories that make us want to suspend our disbelief for the brief moment. We get a chance to loose ourselves in a fantasy for a few minutes. Filmmakers today still study this series as a reference. Here, I take a speed look at some highlights that catch my eye, of an episode from my perspective. I am a fan who watched this series, FIRST AIRED in the early sixties, as a kid.
