It was supposed to be weird and creep you out at times. Most of the time it was just supposed to get you thinking....

Its philosophy is just straight out weird though. Yes, it's supposed to get you thinking, but even after you generate those thoughts, you can't apply them anywhere most of the time.

In film you can, thats the creative asset directors are given. Its something special and takes talent to put that places.

That's why it worked better as a TV show, because there are so many stories they could do. They were designed to be quick, get inside your head, and then be over leaving you either on a cliffhanger or without a full resolution. That's part of why it was so 'mind-bending', it always left the audience wondering what had really happened.

That type of non-resolution and leaving the audience hanging doesn't really work in a movie. Movie-goers want their films to end and have a concrete ending that resolves most - if not all - issues in a movie.

Not the great movies though. Inception comes to mind and the way that movie was done is that it ended leaving you to decide what happened at every part. Did the coin spin, did it stop, was he dreaming, was he stuck? It didn't tell you so you get to decide. I think a Twilight Zone movie would do the same thing. It will boggle your mind and dig deeper than a TV show ever would.

That's assuming they could really pull that off in Twilight Zone. My gut tells me, it won't be nearly that deep, and will instead go for the cheaper thrills. Besides, there are plenty of great movies that actually end. Inception is a good exception to that rule, but I wouldn't say the great movies all do something similar.
