Although the end product arguably fails at completely pulling it off, credit should be given nonetheless to the filmmakers for at least trying to make a psychological horror flick actually be about something and explore some intriguing existential questions about this corporeal existence and our collective, deep-seated desire for something beyond.

Flatliners is one of those early 90s films with one foot still in the 80s, directed beautifully by the master of neon camp Joel Schumacher and starring the epitome of late80s/early 90s mega film stars triptic of Kiefer Sutherland, Kevin Bacon and Julia Roberts (along with Oliver Platt and William Baldwin). But Nelson’s experiment has caused Billy to cross over as well and he’s not making life easy for him. As these experiments continue they evolve in that those who are quite literally put to death are allowing themselves to stay dead for longer and longer periods of time before having their colleagues resuscitate them.

Dialogue exchanges are clear and discernible, and low end moments are frequent, although not altogether powerful.

Nelson is the god who made corporeal (to some degree) the internal trauma that none of the four allowed themselves to face for one reason or another.
