MGM Adds Outer Limits to Its Slate

Beyond Peter Jackson's The Hobbit, even beyond the next James Bond movie, MGM has something else in store for horror fans: The Outer Limits, the black and white, monster-filled, mid-60s TV show that saw new life from 1995-2002. The original edition featured creative young writers like Harlan Ellison, and a few of the monsters in the program even reappeared in the Star Trek TV series. Now, a press release from MGM mentions an upcoming film franchise based on the classic series that scared baby boomers and Gen Y'ers alike.

Just look at this YouTube video, and imagine the possibilities for an update.
