30 Most Hotly Anticipated Movies Still To Come In 2017 - Ranked

16. Flatliners

Flatliners 2017
Columbia Pictures

Release Date: 29th September

Billed As:

The sequel (not a remake, not a remake) to the classic, creepy supernatural thriller that once starred Kiefer Sutherland, Julia Roberts, Kevin Bacon and William Baldwin among others.

Hype:

Flatliners is your typical "don't mess with God" science fiction movie, extolling the value of not over-reaching with science or prodding the idea of death too much.

If the second film can capture some of what made the original so unnerving, it'll be off to a good start and it certainly has a cast capable of following in the footsteps of the original one. Ellen Page, Diego Luna and James Norton are the stand-outs, but the chance to see Sutherland return to reprise his character is a great draw too.

Hopefully, they won't mess with the formula too much, though.
