Personal Review: The Dead Zone starring Christopher Walken,
Brooke Adams, Tom Skerritt, Herbert Lom, Anthony Zerbe
Christopher Walken's excellent portrayal of the troubled Johnny Smith,
who develops psychic abilities after recovering from a five year coma. He's
able to see the future (as well as trace back to the past of a crime scene)
of certain events, and takes measures into his own hands to stop the tragic
circumstances before they occur. Martin Sheen plays the ruthless and
unscrupulous politician, Greg Stillson; with his future sights on The White
House in mind. This doesn't escape Johnny, who must stop Stillson from
leading the World into an Apocalyptic future event.
There are some heart-breaking scenes (one hint: "The Ice Is Gonna
Break!"), especially the inescapable and inevitable demise of Johnny, in
his assassination attempt on Greg Stillson. One of Christopher Walken's
best. Ably supported by Brooke Adams, Tom Skerritt and Herbert Lom.
