Flatliners

Flatliners

1990

An edgy, eerie supernatural thriller about medical students using their skills to try crossing over to the "other side." After they're revived, the students are haunted and consumed by what they've seen, as their fears, guilt and old memories take root in the physical world. This star-studded film may be remembered more for the tabloid frenzy, upon the film's release, surrounding actors Julia Roberts and ditched beau Kiefer Sutherland.

It's beautiful. It's erotic. It's terrifying. They know. They've crossed the line.
