It's a great preemptive strike to kick off a most-welcome horror anthology TV series, and it should keep genre fans' blood-thirst slaked

Still, given some of the terrible adaptations that I as a fan have had to stomach over the years, I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of this offering.

This four-part series adapted from Stephen King short stories starts off with a must-see performance by Oscar-winner William Hurt-the same kind of funny, ferocious, uninhibited turn that gave such a live-wire jolt to A History of Violence.

"Nightmares" will be embraced by fans of "Twilight Zone" and "Night Gallery," and those who enjoy bite-size versions of King more than the overwrought miniseries churned from his novels.

The "Nightmares & Dreamscapes" episodes I watched certainly have rich moments, but much of their human drama is muted by the sophisticated production.

This eight-part anthology - two hour long episodes each Wednesday for four weeks - adapts eight King stories for TV with pretty good results.

Brian Henson directed this self-contained, one-hour telefilm whose story is cleverly told, though it contains not one word of dialogue.

"Nightmares and Dreamscapes" is one of the better Stephen King translations to the visual medium. Definitely worth checking out.

In a superlative cast, Isaacs stands out as the volatile brother. Brotherhood is a sumptuous meal in a summer when television is delivering meager snacks.
