This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

This movie begins with a doctor and an assistant trying to revive a man who has just suffered a massive coronary. The man's name is "Dr. Eric Robinson" (Dan Kruse) and he has purposely brought the condition upon himself. The cardiologist happens to be his best friend, "Dr. Carl Burke" (Terry Jernigen) and the woman assisting him is a psychiatrist named "Dr. Marissa Holloway" (Emilie Jo Tisdale). Anyway, as Eric is being brought back to life the first words he utters upon regaining consciousness is "Loose lips sink ships". Not long afterward he gets up out of his hospital bed and steals an ambulance. Now, rather than reveal too much of the plot and risk spoiling the film for those who haven't seen it I will just say that this is a movie about "Near Death Experiences" and how they relate to Christianity. That said, even though I think that this is an extremely interesting subject I must admit that I found the graphics, dialogue and some of the acting to be rather second-rate. No doubt the low-budget had much to do with this. In any case, although this film had its moments I thought that the end result was rather disappointing and I have rated this movie accordingly. Slightly below average.

This movie is a travesty! I mean they take the subject of near death experiences and make it seem that everyone who has ever died, briefly, has either gone to the Christian heaven or Christian hell with absolutely no other option available. The fact is that when people have had near death experiences they all have different versions of what they saw. It was almost never heaven or hell based on their religious beliefs. They saw things like long lost loved ones or bright lights or any other number or phenomenon. To be fair there are those that have had bad after death experiences of terror and pain. However, I submit to you that if their is only one Christian heaven and hell after we die, then every near death experience would be like what was depicted in this movie, without exception. The fact is they are not black and white. Furthermore, one scene in particular made my blood boil. The doctor is interviewing a blind, from birth mind you, person who had a near death experience and saw heaven and an angel telling her to go back to earth because it wasn't her time. Even if this is based on a real blind person who said this, you have to realize that if she had been blind since birth she wouldn't understand what she saw. She testifies to seeing colors and such but it has been medically proved that a person born blind that suddenly gets their vision back is still "mentaly blind" and wouldn't understand or comprehend what they are seeing. This leads me to believe that its more likely that they made up this woman's story, or at least exaggerated it, for artistic license. All and all don't waste your time on this biased Christina propaganda.

I ran into this on late-night Christian TV. I was initially disappointed, as the story moved along somewhat ploddingly. It begins with a guy being revived from death in a hospital that looks like the basement of an oil refinery, that's lit entirely in red. Later, we discover that the patient is actually a doctor intrigued by reports of near-death experiences in which patients report seeing Heaven.Wanting to see for himself, he injects himself with a deadly cocktail, and calls a doctor friend to revive him.As it turns out, he travels through a tunnel of light to Heaven, which is an incredibly beautiful mountain range with lights flitting around. One of these lights turns into a human (presumably God), and informs the doctor that it "isn't his time" and he "has to go". Inexplicably, he's then thrown into Hell. If it isn't his time for Heaven, isn't it not his time for Hell, too? Anyway, he flies through a tunnel of fire and lands in the scorching plains of Hell, where he soon runs into a dead colleague who's begging for water. We learn via flashback that the reason the colleague was cast into Hell is that he channel-surfed past John Hagee on the TV. Wow...pretty touchy, God! As the doctor's friend revives him, he's drawn back to Earth, presumably to get all preachy on everyone with his newfound belief.I laughed long and loud at this film. It includes everything: the stereotypical smug and sneering atheist, the righteous convert, the ignorant scientist, and the silly mythology.A funny but happily short film. Might be good for drinking games at a party of heathen friends.

This has to be one of the best films ever made on the subject of Hell. A skeptical doctor is shaken by the death of his estranged father and a fellow doctor enthralls him with tales of people going to Heaven. He believes Hell is a cruel myth and sets out on a radical course of action. He plans to kill himself in the boiler room of the hospital while providing his best friend, the tools to bring him back to life before it's too late.The drama and tension of the film begins from the opening credits and doesn't stop until it's over. The plot is clever and the acting believable. A must-see movie for Christian and unbeliever alike. I haven't seen any other films from DRC productions, but this one will be a tough act to follow.
