The Dead Zone is based on a novel by Stephen King, directed by David Cronenberg (Scanners, The Fly) and produced by Debra Hill (Halloween, The Fog). Such a trio of horror vets would be expected to come up with an evening of shocks and gore, but The Dead Zone is a surprise. While it has great atmospheric eeriness and undeniably scary moments, The Dead Zone is at heart a sensitive and thoughtful portrayal of main character Johnny Smith's dilemma. Christopher Walken, king of the vaguely creepy, plays Smith, a man who awakens from a five-year coma with the very mixed blessing of second sight. At the mere touch of a hand, Smith is unwillingly launched into scenes of past and future terror. (Director Cronenberg is said to have fired blanks from a .357 Magnum just out of camera range to keep Walken's flinching spontaneous.) The Dead Zone wisely takes its time telling the story, and thus allows for some great performances. Walken gives a rich portrayal of the conflicted Smith, and Colleen Dewhurst and Tom Skerritt both do welcome turns in smaller roles. The most fun of all, though, is clearly being had by Martin Sheen, who gives a spirited performance as a complete sleazebag. --Ali Davis

This movie is a great story of tragedy. A man with foresight helps people, many of whom do not appreciate it and often to his own detriment both physicaly and mentaly. In the end he is faced with a grave vision of the future, a hard choice of what to do and how much will he sacrifice.
This part was made for Christopher Walken.
This is not a horror movie it is more sci-fi drama.

Christopher Walken has made a career out of taking those oddball, quirky, edgy roles. Never satisfied with the easy path, he, like Harvey Keitel, takes the tricky, adventurous over the safe and sometimes more profitable parts. He often plays the role of a strange, eerie, kind of nutcase character. Always he seems to be stretching his acting muscles and evolving as an actor.
The book is part of the prolific Stephen King's franchise. In "The Dead Zone," The lead character, Walken as Johnny, ... Read More

A special collector's edition, The Dead Zone is well worth purchasing. Based on one of Stephen King's earlier novels, it is excitingly fast-paced and entertaining. Christopher Walken is outstanding in the starring role of the psychic who has a gift he would not have asked for, one that in the end proves life-saving on a grand scale. Buy the movie! You won't be sorry.

I saw the Dead Zone many years ago and was a movie I wanted in my collection. The movie, an early David Cronenberg venture, is one of those that makes you think, what would I do if I was in the same situation? A moderately strong story with good acting especially by Christopher Walken in the lead role. Throughly enjoyable and one you should see at least once if not twice.

This superb David Cronenberg adaptation of Stephen King's THE DEAD ZONE is comprise of excellence in acting,dramatic suspense,production values and cinematic artistry.This is Cronenberg's best film.He evidences control of his material that he NEVER displayed before or since.Anyone who enjoys...or despises...this director's typical "over-the-top" indulgence in his movies may be stunned by his "reach exceeding his grasp"in presenting,perhaps,the best King film yet made.Christopher Walken demonstrates ...
