Isn't this just the greatest twilight zone ever? It had a great story line. The performance by Bruce Willis was perhaps his best ever. The lead character was also very cool 'Peter Jay Novans'. To bad they don't sell the twilight zone DvD in Australia. By the way does anyone think that a zone 1 DvD would work on a PS2 purchased in Australia? I really wanna purchase this DvD.

Doesn't that sound ironically like "Unbreakable"? lol

I thought Shatterday sucked. Compared to Wordplay and ALPAQ it was pretty boring.
shareI haven't seen it in a long while, but I thought he was great in it (and there are FAMOUS Bruce Willis movies that I either don't like or HATE, so it isn't prejudice). It came on when he was just taking off, due to Moonlighting.
sharewhen you take your hands off the bruce willis c*ck and watch it neutrally its not that great, definately not bad.
id put shatterday somewhere in the middle.
It starts well, A great idea, accidentally phoning your own number and YOU answer.... but then it's downhill all the way. "Bad" Bruce just gives up the ghost and fades away...boring. Would have been much better if there was some twist like the "Good" Bruce thinks he's victorious and suddenly gets murdered by "Bad" Bruce...and they BOTH disappear because he's killed himself. That's what I thought was gonna happen, not the lame ending I saw.
"John 3:16"
the ending you propose is too standard.
Ive seen that idea a million times.
This was the first episode of the NEW Twilight Zone. It HAD to use a similar formula to the original series, whereby there is usually a MORAL lesson and GOOD triumphs over evil. It wasn't meant to be a horror story where evil wins in the end.

There's nothing ironic about that. I believe you meant to say coincidental. People use the word irony almost always in the wrong context.
shareI actually didn't think Shatterday was that great. It was a bit abrupt for me and the acting wasn't really what I had hoped it to be. Season 1 of the 80's TZ had some of the best episodes though!

I realise your post is 4 years old but just in case...... you can buy The Twilight Zone in Australia now. I got all the DVD sets when it was on special at JB Hi Fi. Love it. Keep an eye out for it if you haven't already purchased it.
Attn All Units!
Really like this ep. Bruce was great in it and it was a great way to restart this classic series. There was a similar ep on TFTDS with a man that was slipping from existence too. Both eps are really great.
shareI wouldn't say it's the greatest Twilight Zone episode ever but it is a great episode with an awesome performance by Bruce Willis
