You're traveling through another dimension -- a dimension not only of movies and TV shows but ... Well, actually, just movies and TV shows.

For our purposes here, we're focusing on one of the greatest and most influential television series -- "The Twilight Zone." Hosted by Rod Serling, this anthology zipped with ease between the genres of horror, science fiction, fantasy, and thriller, and popularized tropes and concepts within each that have inspired writers for decades.

Almost 70 years after the first episode of "The Twilight Zone" aired, genre anthology series are still the rage, so much so that some of the most popular entries in the format are still running today. From wandering gamblers and killer portraits to monster crabs and White Christmases, we've found 15 series that are more than worthy of the dimension beyond.

Happy (almost) May readers! Hard to believe we’ve almost hit the halfway point of 2018 already, but here we are, with another great crop of VOD and digital releases to keep you busy over the next few weeks. May’s digital releases kick off with a variety of titles on the 1st, including Tremors: A Cold Day in Hell, Dead List, Cartel 2045, Primal Rage, and The Unwilling, and just a few days later, both Altered Perception and Gehenna: Where Death Lives make their arrivals.

May 8th is the day when fans can head back to Wakanda for Black Panther’s digital bow, and on May 11th, genre fans should definitely check out both Terminal and Revenge (which blew this writer away at last year’s Fantastic Fest). Both The Manor and Island Zero hit various platforms on the 15th, and if you missed it in theaters, Annihilation makes its digital bow on the 22nd.

John (Andrew Harwood) and his wife Kate (Lucy Drive) seem to have it all. They have just moved in to a beautiful house in the Italian countryside (it definitely looks Italian at least.), they are making waves with their photography and painting and to top it off, they are planning for a baby. However, there seems to trouble in their rural paradise and I don’t just mean Kate’s rather dishy, yet invasive friend Corinne (Désirée Giorgetti). You see, there may be something sinister going on in the house potentially involving its previous tenants. Maybe it’s just John and Kate going stir-crazy? Maybe the suspiciously British local priest (David White) has some answers for the couple?

Ok. One thing that really stands out about House of Evil...
