This is the first time watching this in...so many years and forgot how Joel Schumacher managed to create such a dark toned gothic style thriller. You go into the unknown to find answers that you seek and something else comes back to basically haunt or torment you. First time I watched it and never really gave this much thought but now I actually enjoyed it.

Nice to read your thoughts on this one MrB. I ge the impression you felt the same as me. I hadn't seen Flatliners in 25 years. I didn't remember it being all that but a rewatch last year completely grabbed me. A dark gothic flavour in places, Schumachers direction and the lovely cinematography was very engaging. There was a stronger horror element than I remembered.
