Redwarmin This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place

Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

Michael Ledo **MANY MANY PLOT SPOILERS, BUT NOT THE ENDING**The first thing I noticed about the movie is that the opening scene didn't match up with the music or the opening credit graphics. Lindsay Wagner plays a badly dressed fashion designer who has horrible designs everyone, including her boss, Diahann Carroll think are great. She has a boyfriend on the rebound, Robin Thomas and an ex-bf Bruce Boxleitner who is an anthropologist who is now forced to date hot looking better dressed air-headed flight attendants after being dumped.Lindsay falls into a swimming pool and hits her head. After not breathing for 10 seconds, an also better dressed spirit leaves her body. BUT SHE'S NOT DEAD YET! While enjoying her Near Death Experience, her boyfriend has the gall to pull her out of the pool. We never see any kind of CRP associated with the attempt to revive real dead people. It seems Lindsey just starts to breathe on her own.After Lindsey's doctor gives her the great advice, "Be Well" strange things happen to her. A brown Eldorado driving in slow motion attempts to run over Lindsey...while she is on the sidewalk! Oh where is the proverbial safe dropping from the top floor on her head! Lindsey is sporting an ugly blue blazer with padded shoulders and never suspects the fashion police are out to get her.Lindsey visits her anthropologist ex-bf who has completed his study of the mating habits of flight attendants. Like any good scientific mind he comforts Lindsey by reading her Tarot cards and turns over the Death card. Now in Tarot, the Death card, contrary to Hollywood folk lore does not mean death. It is a metamorphosis. The closest thing to a death card is the 10 of swords (I have actually seen one movie get it correct, but I forget which one.)Feeling uneasy Lindsey and her boyfriend fly to Mexico to celebrate the "Day of the Dead" (without George Romero) because Death hasn't figured out how to kill people flying in an aircraft as yet. In Mexico, Lindsey is almost killed by a man turned into a zombie from eating a burrito with the green sauce. Lindsey joins a support group led by a woman who does Zelda Rubinstein impersonations. Lindsey discovers a whole group of bad dressers and a guy who claims they are after him too.Not satisfied with the Tarot card reading from an anthropologist, Lindsey consults a professional witch, who basically tells her she is toast. Through a series of events, Lindsey's doctor discovers from the morgue, there are dead people known as "walkers." They have two distinct times of death. After they die, they walk around for a while until they are killed again from a different cause. OOOOHH EEEE AAAAAAH! Oops, no music. Sound track sucked.Lindsey freaks out again when another zombie tries to kill her. She rides in cars, flies in planes and walks alone at night in LA, but Death has to use zombies to try to get her.When her doctor has a heart attack they use a defibrillator on him multiple times in a row. The defibrillator actually STOPS a heart from beating because it is fibrillating. Once it is stopped, you do CPR. You don't keep zapping the guy. The doctor has figured out there are multitudes of zombies walking the earth killing people who have "escaped" death.The actors did a good job with such an unbelievable script. If you made it this far through this review, you can tell I viewed this as an MST type of movie, although to be fair, it wasn't quite that bad. Although I dare say it might be better on prescription meds.Made for TV. No bad language, nudity, and only lame sex of people wrapped in a sheet rolling around. Multiple naked shower scenes of Lindsey from the shoulders up. Not much horror, very very little in the way of blood/gore. Misuse of a defibrillator, zombies that don't need head shots to die.

earthtracy The movie was in several parts on TV. It left off each night with enough scare to want you coming back each consecutive night. The movie was eerie, scary, and made me wonder about some things regarding death and things we might see. Lindsey Wagner gave a great performance. It is now 15 years later and I remember details from the movie and how the movie left me feeling. That speaks for itself in my voting. The plot was well designed in action, and yes, there were some funny lines too, but overall the movie gave me the jitters. The makeup for the dead and the ways of death were done well, meaning, not so far fetched as to be unbelievable. With all the blood and gore films that are on the market, it is nice to see one that will scare you because it makes you think about life, death, and the possibilities surrounding each in things we face on a day to day basis.

epsilon3 Seems to me that a lot of the posts for this movie are from Lindsay Wagner fans and TV watchers. I'm neither of those and am putting forward my point of view as a horror/SF fan - perhaps providing a little bit of balance to the comments here that seem to consist of 'this is really scary' and 'Lindsay we love you.'I watched this movie hoping for some chills and it certainly delivered...eventually. There's lots of good things on offer including some very tense scenes, reasonable acting and good direction (check out the scene where Joanna is in the lift and feeling claustrophobic - excellent stuff.) It's not a classic by any stretch of the imagination but it passed the time and had a few good frights.On the negative side, at times it's painfully slow. Some scenes are shown more than once - for example we get a long panning shot of a a woman reading tarot cards, then later in the film we get the same shot again. This is probably because the original TV movie was shown in two parts, so the audience wouldn't have noticed and it might help them to recap the plot. I did notice and was tempted to hit fast-forward more than once.As for the plot, despite what some others have said, it has little originality. If you've seen 'flatliners' (admittedly released one year later) you'll notice similarities immediately.Much of the spookiness is engineered using cliched stuff such as skulls, candles and the ever reliable tarot cards. I almost jumped out of my seat with shock when the woman did a tarot reading and turned over the......*gulp*....'death' card. Scary stuff.It's obvious from the start who Joanna is going to fall in love with (If he's good enough for Delenn he's good enough for anyone!) and the ending is unsurprising and actually a bit of an anticlimax. It's on the lines of 'oh look - if we just do this everything will be alright in the morning..' To sum up, I got this DVD for about four pounds in the UK and don't think it was worth the money. It's exactly what is says on the tin - a TV movie with everything you'd expect from one. Watch it if it comes on cable, borrow it from a friend if you must but don't buy it, unless you're a big fan of Lindsay Wagner.

Rekrul I haven't seen this movie in quite some time, but I seem to recall that when I watched it, I couldn't find any mention of the fact that it was based on the book Walkers by Gary Brandner, author of The Howling novels.The movie itself wasn't bad, but it bothered me that they felt the need to make the character of Joanna a fashion designer living in (if I remember correctly) a loft, instead of an employee of a magazine living in a small house as she was in the book. I guest the makers of this film felt that an average person wasn't glamorous enough to be the main character. Where-as the Joanna in the book comes across as the kind of person you might actually know, the Joanna of the film seems more like she stepped out of a typical prime time soap opera like the recently cancelled Titans.Of course the changes don't end there. For some reason the filmmakers also decided to change the names of all the major characters. Peter Landau becomes Peter Langford, Glen Early becomes Glen Eastman, Dr. Warren Hovde becomes Dr. Walter Hovde. I forget what Joanna's last name was in the movie, but they probably changed that too.If I hadn't read the book first, none of these things would matter to me, but since I did, I couldn't help wondering why they felt they needed to make so many changes to what was already a fine story.
