First watched it during college days at Central Market cineplex...at that time, cineplex is rare and so different from the traditional big theaters or cinema. Maybe because of the near real effect in this new breed of cinema, it gave me the creeps and haunting effect until now :( Throughout these years, I watch it replay on cable or satellite STAR, TNT, USA...lost count and lot track. And usually, I would try to avoid it before going to sleep...
As a big fan of Kevin Bacon, I won't missed this movie.
It talks about a group of elite med students, trying to create a death experience in school, therefore it is "flatlined", and then resurrect by others at the table. It's to be the first to die and comeback to tell the experience. Taken place at a museum like hospital as temporary lab...for autopsy and lecture. It started with a real creepy, dark, mysterious mood + atmosphere when these students going thru lectures in "museum" hospital. Kiefer Sutherland was the leader among the team...he went out to stare at the sun/sky and said... it's a good day to die... They finally gathered and do the first trial to die...Keifer die for 30seconds. He was saved but the event seems open up a tunnel or channel to bring back some childhood experience and bring them to life, where others cannot see it... the story continues with others like Julia Roberts, William Baldwin (Alec's brother)...where each of them encountered something in the past and the duration was also being pushed beyond 1:30 of death. Have to stop here or you will lost the fun of enjoying this movie, a must see movie on my list.
