Hadn't seen this in a while before ordering. Audio/Video quality was good. Storyline was kind of boring and dragged at times.

Decent enough for 80's Stephen King adaptations. The lead actors give great performances.

The Dead Zone begins when Johnny Smith (Christopher Walken) gets into a horrific car accident that leaves him in a lengthy coma. Upon waking up, he realizes that he has gained the ability to see things about the people and objects that he touches, including the future and their secrets. Unfortunately for Johnny, his world has completely changed, since his former fiancee is now married to another man and has a family. To get over these significant changes, Johnny uses his skill to help others, which leads him to participate in the hunt for a serial killer and even go up against a crooked politician who seeks the presidency.
This film is very well-acted, and thanks to David Croenenberg's taut direction, is filled with suspense and vibrant, grim images in all the right places. It is easy to identify with Johnny's plight, just as it becomes unavoidable that the audience fears the things he seeks to stop. This is easily one of the best adaptations of a Stephen King novel, and it is very faithful to its source novel. If you like King and/or a good thriller, then you should definitely give this one a shot.
