I remember being seriously spooked out by the made-for-TV version of The Langoliers as a kid, only to rewatch it a bit later and realized just how completely laughable it is. Especially the incredible special effects.

So this aired in 2 parts when I was in grade 7, I think. I remember because I missed the first part and my friend at the time sold me on the concept: A bunch of people wake on a plane, everyone else is missing, land at an airport, time is frozen, they hear this munching sound in the distance, turns out there's monsters that eat time, they're trapped in the past, that's why time travel doesn't exist or something.

Sounds sellable as an Outer Limits episode.

Then the second part had the titular Langdoliers you see in the above youtube.

It had Balki from Perfect Strangers just hamming it up.
