I'm surprised no one has picked up on the 'TV' communication device with a huge eye, evidently their great leader. Twilight Zone was a CBS show! I found that to be a delightfully humorous subtlety whether intentional or not.
While it's true this is not a great story, it follows the simple formula of all Twilight Zone episodes, where everything is just slightly odd, and is therefore an enjoyable one to watch.
It's an odd mix - partly The Wild One's motorcycle 'gang', partly every sci-fi movie that had space invaders (why ARE those highly advanced alien civilizations always plotting to destroy the earth or its lifeforms?).
