Flatliners (1990)
Horror | Sci-Fi | Thriller
Are you afraid to die? Kiefer Sutherland isn't. He's an ambitious, charismatic medical student who persuades classmates Julia Roberts and Kevin Bacon to take part in a reckless experiment. To see if there is life after death, they will kill themselves: temporarily shut down ("flatline") their heart and brain functions to briefly experience clinical death. After Sutherland survives the first experiment, the others flatline for increasingly longer intervals. But their horror begins when they realize that although they've come back alive… they haven't come back alone. Flatliners is a chilling suspense thriller of obsession, fear and redemption that will take you across the line to a place where terror lives forever.

The Detective 2 / B+ jing taam (2011)
Thriller | Crime | Drama
Solid if underwhelming effort from the usually underwhelming Oxide Pang. Aaron Kwok's return to his dorky "B+ detective" role offers up some minor thrills and chills, but little in the way of character development or actual need. Warning: the movie sets up a sequel. If that sort of thing annoys you, well, too bad.
