A small gem of a movie! Boam's screenplay extracted the main points from King's novel, to great effect. The actor's, under Cronenberg's direction, are superlative in defining characters in their brief time on screen. Walken is superb portraying a man damned with a " gift " that will ultimately kill him. Brilliant!
I have enjoyed Stephen King movies, but Dead Zone is the one movie that I will watch over and over again. The changes in the movie along with the main characters, makes it riveting to watch. A classic in my book, so to speak.
the line "you knew" echoes in my soul. it holds me then lets me drop to my knees. oh God please... she knew. I danced into the darkest corner not knowing... she knew.👻
Thanks for posting. One of my all time favorites. It made me admire Christopher Walken as an actor. This movie and The Changeling are always hard to find.
Watch The Great Escape too. I have now seen that film a doZen x at least . And each time equally unprepared for the grim moments..even though I have watched it before. Humor, thrills and tragedy..and the greatest cast ever
Luis The book is usually better because you can find out what people are thinking or what they know and don’t know. Also, there are usually scenes cut out for the movie because of time constraints, and that makes the book make more sense, or just adds to the story making it feel more real.
When I was a teenager I read every Stephen King novel I could get my hands on. I partially credit The Dead Zone for my skepticism of populist bombasts like Donald Trump.
Dolores Bright no it fits both Donald trump is shit just like Biden is shit. Either way they don’t care about you. Fuck politics let’s look at humanity you sheep are so easy to divide and control.
@@doloresbright4432 If you put it in to your search engine as Stephen King /Donald Trump/ The Dead Zone, You will see that Stephen King HIMSELF- recently made the comparison and he said it was Trump and said it was frightening that his book was that able to predict the future. I don't know how the hell you derived Joe Biden from it!
this movie a favourite of mine have it in my DVD collection and never miss it when it’s on 📺 unless it’s been butchered then I skip watching it refuse to watch the re-make.
Music and All. The best performance by Walken - better than the Deer Hunter. Loved every second of this haunting Cronenberg film. I don't like horror films but love suspense and this is non stop. Liked Adams and the boy he tutored and his father and the doc.
One of my top 3 movies, certainly top 3 supernatural flicks - level with 'The Sixth Sense' and only bettered (IMO ) by *Dead Of Night* ( 1945 ). Walken and Sheen are sublime and Brooke looks as cute as she's ever been.
Despite an excellent performance by Chris this movie requires patience but does build toward a shocking climax. The central dilemma posed by the film will become relevant when someone finally builds a time travel machine: How much of history do we go back and alter?
Boy that truck driver is SO fired..Look at how much reaction time Johnny has after wiping windshield.(XD)The shot at ground level and the bug passes from left corner.His defensive driving skills seem to be accelerate into Sharp left turning motion.Then to Yelling Brerwhoa!! Whilst letting go of steering wheel to cover face..Shoulda stayed at Brooke's.(Sarah's) Place.That's his REAL "Dead Zone".
Stephen King used Poes poem The Raven for 3 different reasons for effect. and the legend of sleepy hollow to fit in a similar box twice.. and instead of The Bells, he saw and heard the moaning and groaning of the lost lenore in himself, nameless here forever more.
The chapters stop at pt 9. So the end of the film is missing, maybe 15 mins or so. Here's a better link for the full movie. You just have to ignore the foreign subtitles. th-cam.com/video/_d-3lD3G_6M/w-d-xo.html
Ok so it starts raining really hard and she didn't even invite him in to just wait it out or sleep on the couch? Later she is surprised that he got into a traffic accident after riding in that Beetle death trap with shitty handling and brakes. This is all her fault. Way to go lady. This is how selfishness and prudishness lands other people in the ECR.
Gidget Hrobowski It is crazy that our culture thinks it's more "dangerous" to be close to someone we love before the church says it's allowed than it is to protect ourselves in other practical ways.
Gidget Hrobowski On the other hand, now that I see the clip again after all these years, his character is all the more honorable to care like he does about the future and to respect her.
mfriedrich2012 she asked him to come in twice and invited him to stay the night. He declined the offer. What was she suppose to do? Knock him out, drag hi inside and tie him up?
I read this book decades ago. I probably saw the movie but don't remember it. I"m currently listening to Stephen King audio books chronologically and I'm up to "The Dead Zone". So I figured I'd give this movie a whirl. I don't know where all the praise comes from. I don't think this movie holds up well AT ALL. I got up to Frank Dodd killing himself and turned it off. Sorry to disagree with you folks but this movie SUCKS.
F*ck. We're living this situation, and it's worse than we ever dreamed. Mr. King, can you go back in time and fix this? I know it's a big ask - love, a Castle Rock alumnus
This was one of Stephen King's best movies "The Dead Zone." I love Christopher Walken - he's at his best in this movie.
Thats cause David Cronenberg directed this. Most of the other Stephen King to film adaptations are shit.
@@stee8345 carrie and misery were good....the shining
Shining was excellent
Walken’s best movie besides the “Deer Hunter”.
Soundtracks can really make a good movie complete...this was one of them.

I loved the book and the movie. Walken is perfect here.
Great classic movie, Thankyou 👍
He was chosen with a high spiritual calling. And at the end he saved the whole world by removing the man who intended to destroy it. Excellent!
Great movie!!!!!!!!!!!!!
One of the best movie of Christopher Walken👍👍👍
More of a suspense movie than horror movie but still great 👍
Agree. But with some terrifying aspects of horror, too. The death of Frank Dodd, as example.
The horror is that he never had a normal life after that
I think it won an award for best adapted screenplay. What an incredible movie. I think it might qualify for best picture.
I have enjoyed Stephen King movies, but Dead Zone is the one movie that I will watch over and over again. The changes in the movie along with the main characters, makes it riveting to watch. A classic in my book, so to speak.
That's so strange. I believe Chris Walken played the headless demon he talked about to the class in The Legend Of Sleepy Hollow. Art imitating Art.
That’s true.
Or maybe even predicting his own acting future??
You... MEAN. the. HEADLESS! demon..?
@@Johnconno Sory JS I can't remember the context any more! It was a year ago. But I am sure I was making some kind of sense then.
the line "you knew" echoes in my soul.
it holds me then lets me drop
to my knees.
oh God please...
she knew.
I danced into the darkest corner
not knowing...
she knew.👻
So much foreshadowing. The roller coaster obviously was a metaphor for the twist and turns life can bring to us unexpectedly.
Not to mention Him later portraying the Headless Horseman!
Stay with her Johnny! Take my word for it! I have the power to see the future!
Love this, Shawshank and Green Mile
What a beautiful soundtrack to this film.
Thanks for posting. One of my all time favorites. It made me admire Christopher Walken as an actor. This movie and The Changeling are always hard to find.
An absolutely wonderful film. Just amazing!
+Lisa-Marie Gray the movie was dumb at the beginning his little car smashes a truck trailer back end off ??? very stupid !!
Wow, I love this movie.
I think that’s my favorite Movie opening of all time (Personal opinion ❤)..
Apart from The Godfather and Sideways this is the only film I have watched a number of times. Truly brilliant in both it’s storyline and the acting.
Watch The Great Escape too. I have now seen that film a doZen x at least . And each time equally unprepared for the grim moments..even though I have watched it before. Humor, thrills and tragedy..and the greatest cast ever
The movie is great, but I suggest everyone read the book. Some differences but both are great.
yeah, no wheel of fortune with the kid in the jimi hendrix shirt stating over and over, "i love to see that guy take a beating"
a feminazi burnt all my books.
The books are always better than the movies, I find. Haven't found an exception, yet. That said, not everyone is a "reader".
@Luis Ishmael Most bibliophiles will get what I'm saying. Both are stories.
Luis The book is usually better because you can find out what people are thinking or what they know and don’t know. Also, there are usually scenes cut out for the movie because of time constraints, and that makes the book make more sense, or just adds to the story making it feel more real.
thanks for uploading it
One of my favorite films - thank you! So creepy.
The soundtrack to this movie is quite beautiful-by Michael Kamen
Doing God's work 🙏 thank you bro
Stephen king really hyped this in his early interviews back in the 1980s.
Stillson= Trump. Crazy how Stephan predicted this.
Funny he mentioned sleepy hollow
When I was a teenager I read every Stephen King novel I could get my hands on. I partially credit The Dead Zone for my skepticism of populist bombasts like Donald Trump.
Biden and Syria yesterday . Now who is right and who is wrong?
Really, Donald Trump?! It fits Joe Biden more after all his blunders,!
Dolores Bright no it fits both Donald trump is shit just like Biden is shit. Either way they don’t care about you. Fuck politics let’s look at humanity you sheep are so easy to divide and control.

I don't know how the hell you derived Joe Biden from it!
@@mattrussillo4587 I derived Joe Biden because everything we are going through as a country NOW fits HIS presidency NOT Trump's.
Wow, this really is a great movie!
Stephen king one of the best horror films for me
Music is beautiful but scary
Oh, how i love this movie...!
Wow!! This music is genius!
6:28 some things are worth waiting for. LOL. the only time in Hollywood history an actor said that. what a gentleman
He played that headless demon
this movie a favourite of mine have it in my DVD collection and never miss it when it’s on 📺 unless it’s been butchered then I skip watching it refuse to watch the re-make.
Amazing Music in the begining. Chilling.
Music and All. The best performance by Walken - better than the Deer Hunter. Loved every second of this haunting Cronenberg film. I don't like horror films but love suspense and this is non stop. Liked Adams and the boy he tutored and his father and the doc.
Oh Martin Sheens over the top part is great too. But the music holds it all together.
One of my top 3 movies, certainly top 3 supernatural flicks - level with 'The Sixth Sense' and only bettered (IMO ) by *Dead Of Night* ( 1945 ).
Walken and Sheen are sublime and Brooke looks as cute as she's ever been.
Martin Sheen reminds me of Donald Trump in this movie.
Except for the no wars and peace in the Middle East.
Great movie
Despite an excellent performance by Chris this movie requires patience but does build toward a shocking climax. The central dilemma posed by the film will become relevant when someone finally builds a time travel machine: How much of history do we go back and alter?
What would it take to get Walken to play Captain Ahab in Moby Dick?
Who should direct?
Boy that truck driver is SO fired..Look at how much reaction time Johnny has after wiping windshield.(XD)The shot at ground level and the bug passes from left corner.His defensive driving skills seem to be accelerate into Sharp left turning motion.Then to Yelling Brerwhoa!!

too, funny!!!
School teacher who gets chased by a headless demon ......premonition of sleepy hollow ???
@martin manifold, "premonition?" The Legend of Sleepy Hollow was authored by Irving and published in the 19th Century. 1820.
@@hategreed1 i shouldve said of his role in sleepy hollow
@martin manifold, oh. haha. Movie watchers and readers sometimes go bump in the night and find life confusing. 🤓
Don't start watching this ! The last part is missing.
seen it so many times I can tell you the ending.
+buzz lightyear The last part is Donald Trump becoming the president of the United States. It is why.
Marathon Man Nah, that's surely a work of fiction...
what?! Yikes! Hard pass.😔
Well, I couldn't find it on Netflix.
Legend, i love this move thannks
wow if he'd been MY teacher i'd hav TRIED 2 get detention LOL ;)!!!
Wow! Kamen's best score, at least of what I've heard -- expected to see Howard Shore's name.
Two different composers; same orchestra.
I thought it was Poledouris at first
@@xdproductions3087 basil has motifs in his pieces. Still distinguishable among the rest.
This movie reminds me a little like Castaway.
Obviously he made the right decision. Staying overnight with that woman would’ve been far more dangerous!
He looks like a dork in the beginning with his hair and then he looks handsome 🤣🤣🤣🤣 as the movie goes on.
Finishes reciting... kids disinterested, half dead ... he smiles "Pretty good, huh"? LOLOLOL

COOL MOVIE
I went to that school
Hey Thomas!
Thanks Phillip! I pieced it together....end too
can someone plz upload the FULL movie in one vid- not cut into 9,10 parts or more???
Why were they the only ones riding in the roller coaster? Anybody else notice that? lol
+Chris S (ScalpHunter) that little car smashes off the back of the trailer ?? i stopped watching after that !!!
+Chris S (ScalpHunter) it was in the script.....
The weather was piss poor
lovely opening titles, slowly revealing the name by blacking out the dead zones between the letters
I bet the VW beetle was undamaged, they are built like a tank
Sixteen years later the movie Stir of Echoes was released which is quite similar.
Gosto mto desta série mas não encontro ela completa em lugar nenhum,nem na Netflix 😰
Very Creepy.
No, at 7:26 he wasn't in his Volkswagen. In the novel he was in a taxi-cab (the cab driver was killed).
DONALD TRUMP SHOULD WATCH THIS MOVIE! LAUGH OUT LOUD!
valeu pelo video!!!
Anyone notice the schoolteacher looks a lot like the child he tutored? Chris. I wonder if that was an accident?

Is that roller coaster The Beast at Kings Island?
No wheel of fortune at the carnival ?
In the series there is.
8:31 The trailer’s lights still on???🤔🤔
Don’t waste your time watching , part 5 is missing, very important scene. 😾
Seriously
I hate it when the titles aren't true to the videos! Not only is part 5 missing, BUT the very ending!
Maybe now we can find out who killed Tupac?
Baby Lane killed him- where you been living for 20 years? The world knows this.

I hate when they run credits ..often usually over the actors work...the beginng.. just a dumb ego trip....
The resolution is so bad it's like it was drawn with animated pastel chalk.
So the accident didn’t cause his powers
Thankyou Killa!
is the cronenberg in this movie in any way related to the ones in rick and morty?
David Cronenberg directed this movie and no.
@routfpr valeu mesmo
Don’t make them like they used too
I need to see the end of this fucking movie! Where is it?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I still have movies from the 1980’s and 1990’s.. they do NOT look this bad.. like they are from the 1800’s…

wheres p 2
The final 10 minutes is Trumplike!
The dead zone. A movie about Donald Trump. 🤣
The book is awful, the movie is great.
🤮
I love mr Chris too, although he has frightened me in other movies 🫣😥
