Flatliners

1990 Joel Schumacher 115 MIN

Five medical students experiment with "near death" experiences, until the dark consequences of past tragedies begin to jeopardize their lives.

HORROR CENTRALITY
42 /100

Flatliners is primarily a psychological thriller and drama about near-death experiences and guilt; horror imagery and fear are present and meaningful, but the film's core identity rests on ethics and consequences rather than horror mechanics. Removing horror would change the mood but not completely redefine the work.
