I hadn't seen "Flatliners" for many years and thought that I would pay it a visit (especially since it was available at a low price). The film came out in 1990 and the actors all look so very young, as I was too! It is an interesting tale about medical students trying to see what lies beyond death. To do this they have to "flatline" and stop all body functions- including the brain. Others in the group have to attempt to bring back the "subject". In this case, the subject is one of the group that has voluntarily "gone under" or, in other words, died. A few of the group do this and continue to increase the time that they flatline. The story has suspense, good acting, and some scary death activities. All in all, it is an entertaining film that I would recommend it to others.

Great movie. Audio a bit low at times, but still worth it.

Now there’s a Concept a bunch of med students are willingly flat lining themselves as a competitive sport and as a research-Curiosity—just to see if there’s something on the other side to test the theory between heaven and hell or are we just human we die and that’s it. But Little did they know they brought something back with them. I haven’t seen the remake yet but I hear is a little bit better than the first but again to each his own.
