Colibel Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.

ShangLuda Admirable film.

Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

gridoon2018 Essentially a reworking of familiar Agatha Christie formulas, "Dead Man's Island" is not a great movie, but I'm just glad that mysteries of this type are still being made. A remote island, a huge house, assassination attempts, family secrets, an amateur detective, and about a dozen suspects. But there is at least one rather unique twist on the formula (don't read the following sentence if you want to avoid SPOILERS: Usually when a character becomes the target of an unknown killer in these movies, he (or she) either gets killed in the first half ,or he (or she) survives to the end; here, NEITHER of those two things happens!). And then there's the cast: where else could you see people like David Faustino (of "Married With Children" fame), Traci Lords, and William Shatner all together? Nowhere. Though this movie largely belongs to Barbara Eden, who is not only the narrator and the amateur detective of the story, but also one of the HOTTEST 60+ years old actresses you'll ever see. Seriously, she makes even Traci Lords herself almost invisible. (**1/2)

ehsbanddancer I wish I had a copy. I didn't have time to record it onto VHS. It was so good. Awesome star power. Wonderful script. A perfect movie. One of Barbara Eden's best. Loved the storm effects. The explosion. W H A T AAA+ flick No disappointments Suspenseful Really keeps you on your toes. Too good to miss. They should show it more often. Especially, instead of awful reality shows. Very good movie. 100 stars. Kudos to the cast and director. I'm not too big on Shatner, but what a performance. Morgan Fairchild was brilliant. And Barbara Eden's acting is unparalleled. Wish they'd put it on video or DVD. I would buy it if I had the chance.

Guccichic One of the best films I have seen. I can understand people's comments about clichéd themes, but the acting is great. It has beautiful scenery, and a good plot. I have been trying to get it on video, but, obviously, is not available. I believe it is an enigmatic, atmospheric film with great music and attitude. Fabulous!

david-413 Caught Dead Man's Island on ITV in the UK recently and was completely bowled over by how stupendously bad it was. It was brilliant! What a cast -- Barbara Eden! William Shatner! Morgan Fairchild! Traci Lords!!!! Don (not Donny) Most!!! Christopher Atkins! Olivia Hussey! (poor thing) Malcom McDowell!! (Wasn't Rosie Grier available?) The writing and the acting were cringe-inducing from the start.Overflowing with cliches -- the tough but genteel Southern journo-cum-investigator (that would be Barb Eden, playing Henrietta O'something -- better known as Henry O.), the wealthy industrialist (that would be Shatner as Chase Prescott), the secluded island cursed by Indian legend. I'm not making this up!Best of all was Barbara Eden's outrageous lime green poly-blend pantsuit she wore as she interrogated the others about their whereabouts when the shots rang out that nearly killed Chase Prescott. Barbara, honey, you look positively Boca Ra
