An interesting take on near-death experiences and the manifestation of one's own sins. Julia Roberts was on the verge of her 'Pretty Woman' breakout stardom - Sutherland and Bacon were well-known, but had much more to come. Nice use of lighting to evoke a creepy atmosphere. Suspense and build-up to scary events makes the viewer think there is going to be 'slasher-style' horror, but wisely doesn't need to rely on those effects to tell the story. There is some unnecessary nudity that likely triggered the R rating and unfortunately cheapens the message - a message which is positive and sets the stage for self-reflection. The idea that top med students would take this kind of risk is unbelievable, but there would be no story without getting past that.

A classic with lots of a listers in it when they were young. A must for horror fans!

The first time I saw this I was so freaked out. But I love it, spooky and no blood and guts, some scratches but that is it.
