Review of Flatliners (1990) by Jon C — 27 Sep 2017

An impressive cast with an equally-impressive premise.

We all wonder what life is like after we die, is there a light at the end of the tunnel or something else entirely?

Kevin Bacon, Julia Roberts, Billy Baldwin, Oliver Platt, and Keifer Sutherland are medical students experimenting with stopping each others' hearts and bringing them back.

It seems like its in the name of mankind, science or discovery but strange things start happening to each of them opening their eyes much more.

The line between life and death is there for a reason so obviously some things should not be attempted.

Coming back from the dead is one thing but having your ghosts coming back is another.

Now they have to figure out how to stop these occurences before their lives are destroyed.

Even if you don't believe in the afterlife it's still pretty cool to ponder what's actually in the great beyond.

There's our territory of living, then there's stepping onto God's.

Do we dare take that extra step into the unknown?

A neat sci-fi, psychological thriller that asks really good questions along with terrifying answers.
