You can expect this lot from a David Cronenberg film: Great cast, great performances, great storyline and great blood/gore scenes. Sadly, The Dead Zone had none of the latter (except for the part where Dodd pushes his mouth in the scissors). I haven't read the novel yet and now that I've seen this, I intend to.

The thing with Christopher Walken movies is that you cannot watch them en... read more

"28.5. Christopher Walken herää viiden vuoden koomasta huomatakseen olevansa meedio. Sitten hän tuijottaa ihmisiä "vittu mä tapan sut" -ilme päällään ja huutaa asioita, kuten "SUN KAKARAS PALAA ELÄVÄLTÄ SUN TALOSSAS!". Tämmöisellä menolla The Dead Zone olisikin paljon parempi, mutta sitten kaikki pitää pilata jollain uikuttamisella siitä, miten Walkenin elämä on pilalla ja ynynynyn. Martin Sheenin habitus naurattaa oikein kunnolla."

"28.5. (Teatteri) Cronenbergin trilleri ei realismilla mellasta, vaikka eipä tuo Stephen King -filmatisoinnin tapauksessa itseäni haittaa. Yliluonnollisten kykyjen tuomat sattumukset on esitetty ehkä liiankin nopeatempoisesti, mutta kokonaisuutena tarina pysyy varsin hyvin kasassa. Jännittävä, koskettava sekä loppua päin karmivakin se onnistuu olemaan. Pienimuotoinen mustavalkoisuus käy kyllä hieman hermoille. Kai Amerikan isokenkäisten tukena pyörii sentään muitakin rikollisia, ku"

Mack's Movies 2013: April (19 movies items)

" April 27th: Online streaming, computer Overall opinion: Pretty good My dad really likes this film and Christopher Walken and he manages to work "like that movie The Dead Zone" into a surprising number of conversations so I figured I'd bite the bullet and just watch it. It's sadly one of those films that inspired a lot of copycat plots ever since so nothing was new to me. I remember an episode of Smallville that is basically The Dead Zone without any of the appeal this movie had, it just rip"

I agree with most parts of this review. Though I haven't read any Stephen King books, I think most of the film adaptations are pretty good. Yes, this film does have a few flaws, but it certainly has a
