Need to Know/Red Snow

This TZ episode from season one was only mediocre nothing really special the segments were okay, yet not one of the better ones as they just didn't hold much interest. They were titled "Need to Know" and "Red Snow". Most memorable is a guest part in the first segment which featured Frances McDormand before she became a big star.

First up the segment "Need to Know" was the better of the two, it centered around a small rural town where strange things are happening one by one. As people one by one when communicated with fall to the likes of an evil insane plague! A government investigator(William Petersen)comes to small town America to look into the matters of the not normal only to find a big shock a lesson is learned keep things quite as you don't need to know everything as sometimes things are not to be known and they are better off kept private.

Second was "Red Snow" a strange mystery spy like drama set in Russia which involves a KGB officer who's sent to the harsh and cold likes of Siberia to investigate a strange series of murders involving Communist party officials. Only as it turns out the big secret is that these Russians have plenty of bite and sharp teeth and do a lot of day sleeping! Overall these segments were nothing great still watchable for any TZ fan.
