A friend of mine is trying to remember the name of a Sci-Fi movie (or it could be an Outer Limits or Twilight Zone episode) that he saw when he was a kid. What he remembers about the plot is that human space travelers landed on an alien planet in a farm-like setting. The aliens were human-looking and friendly. Everything seemed to be going well when the aliens poisoned all of the humans. As they were dying, the humans asked why the aliens had done this and were told that it was because, after getting to know them, the aliens decided that the humans were barbaric and couldn't be allowed to return to Earth and let others know about the alien planet.

Does any of this sound familiar?

I actually vaguely remember something similar, but have no idea of the name or source.

Are there any details, vague or not, that you remember that I didn't mention in my OP? Even small details might help me construct a better online search.

Only thing I can recall is that I'm fairly sure it's a Twilight Zone episode.

Twilight Zone is my jam. I've seen almost all the episodes, but the alien ones all seem to blur together after awhile. This sounds like Elegy but I don't remember the main setting being a farm. The aliens aren't very interactive with the Astronauts either but they do get poisoned.

Thanks to both of you for taking the time to help. :)

I've emailed my friend the plot of Elegy and asked him if that could be it. The plot seems very close to what he remembers. Still waiting to hear back.

My friend watched Elegy on youtube and said that this was what he was remembering. Thanks so much!
