If you can see what he sees
then you know whats comming about years before it happens, or he can see your past like a firework in the dark skies. This along with the shining are one of the few good Stephen king Novels to come to life in a great way.Johnny Smith(Christopher Walken) woke up out of a five year sleep. He has his friends and a good doctor, Dr. Sam Weizak(Herbert Lom) in his corner. But when he grips the hand of a nurse, he sees what she needs to know, that her daughter is stuck in a burning house. It all ends well, but Johnny has just woke up from a five year nightmare right into one, where he wishes he was rght back in that coma. With his girl, and job gone, his legs nearly rendered usless, headaches getting worse, body getting weaker, and his only positive is to see horryfying truths, it seems as tho his life is going into a downward spiral.This movie does a excellent job of keeping in suspence and mystery to keep your eyes glued to the very end. Since the suspence is over with after a first viewing, I find it hard to watch a suspence movie over again, unless it's like total recall where action is blazing, so I won't get board. But I watch it sometimes every now and then.The Dead Zone is an excellent movie that provides great entertainment as a suspence movie. Anyone who is a fan of Stephen King, suspence movies, or Christopher walken should definitly check this movie out.peace
