A movie similar to Twilight Zone ep. Stop at Willoughby.


Hello there. So yesterday I was watching some Twilight Zone episodes from the first season and on came "A Stop at Willoughby". (amazing one by the way)

As I watched it I couldn't shake the feeling that I've seen the story before but modern. There are a few things I remember that are different. The main character on the one I can´t remember was a train station worker. He had a partner working with him and they had problems getting tea. (he had to reuse his old bags).

One day a mysterious woman comes to buy tickets to a place he never heard before.

Than things get a bit foggy in my mind. All I remember is he gets on the train to follow her and ends up on a small town in the middle of nowhere. Like an old school all American dream town where everything is calm and pretty. He goes into a dinner and the waitress brings him some delicious pie.

And he starts doing it more and more. Until she warns him that that place is not for him.

I just can´t seem to find anything about it. I can't even recall who´s the actor playing the main character. But I remember him being a little older. I looked over tons of movies about trains in IMDB with no luck.

All I know is it is not the TV remake of the TZ episode from 2000 (For all time).

Anyone can help? I'm starting to feel like I'm going mad.

Cheers!

Yep saw the movie about six months ago. It’s very reminiscent of Willoughby. I enjoyed very much
