I am a fan of "The Twilight Zone", but I have noticed that many of the reviews are so positive you'd get the impression that every episode was golden. No anthology series is THAT good that there aren't a few bland or sub-par episodes. "The Four of Us Are Dying" is indeed one of these bland episodes. It's not bad, really--it just isn't particularly good or memorable.
The show begins with some guy showing himself in the mirror that can change his face at will just by concentrating. It's an interesting idea, though how and why he does what he does in the episode is awfully vague. In one case it's obvious he's doing this to cheat someone out of money--but why mess with the lady whose boyfriend died?! It was as if they had an interesting idea but didn't know where to go with it. And, not unexpectedly, by the end the guy with the chameleon face gets his comeuppance--no big surprise when you are in the Twilight Zone.
No great twist, no memorable moments...this one is worth seeing if you have nothing better to do.
