(This is absolutely not on my top 100 list, I just got it through Netflix).I have been a Joel Schumacher apologist for a long time. I like many of his movies, and don't hate his terrible ones (Batman And Robin) as much as everybody else, but this movie is fucking awful. It centers around five douchebag medical students in Abandoned Building City who want to see what death is like, so they "flatline" while everybody is around and can bring them back. Well, guess what, spooky stuff happens, and all of that is ok, but the writing is just godawful. Also, these are med school students, and yet every one of them lives in a huge ass urban loft apartment with multiple floors and 20 ft ceilings. In conclusion, here is my summary of this movie: Yell Yell Yell Yell Yell Die Yell Yell Yell Die Yell Yell Yell Yell Die Yell Hooray.
RATING: 21%

This review is awesome. This was one of those movies that my parents let me watch when I was way to young and I really liked it way back then (seriously, I think I was 10 at the oldest). The little kid in the red hoodie scared the crap out of me and I had a total crush on Kiefer Sutherland. (Not anymore tho, cos he's a Republican now who shoots ppl all day long. Or something.) Anyway, I'm torn over whether I should watch Flatliners again and risk hating it or if I should just go on blissfully enjoying my memory of it as scary and weird. Hmm...
Well, you might ruin your memory, but what if you are in a social setting and somebody mentions that movie and you say you love it? That could be trouble, too.
That is the best summary of any movie I've ever read.
