Movies With Afterlife Themes |
|
Hollywood gets it right |
|
RESURRECTION -
A woman who experiences clinical death as the
result of a car accident returns to life with the amazing
ability to heal others and is persecuted by fundamentalists
in town. This unforgettable story of love and devotion is a
must see for all near-death experience buffs. This movie is
the first movie based on the NDE aspects defined by
Raymond Moody. |
SAVED
BY THE LIGHT
- After suffering a sudden, severe electrical
shock, Dannion
Brinkley (played by Eric Roberts) has a
near-death experience and is shown the future which
transforms him into a highly spiritual person. Based on the
near-death experience of Dannion Brinkley. In the opinion of
the webmaster, Kevin Williams, this is not only one of the
best NDE movies I have seen, it is one of the best
movie I have ever seen. |
GHOST
DAD - A man dies in a car accident but returns
to earth as a
ghost. A scientist, who halts
the man's passage to the afterlife, urges him to find his
body, which he does. The NDE aspects found are: the
out-of-body experience, hearing oneself pronounced dead,
meeting loved ones, the reluctance to tell others, and the
life-changing
effect. |
QUIET
EARTH - This movie is about the story of
three soul survivors in the world in which a science
experiment has caused all other creatures to vanish into
another dimension. The common link between each of the
survivors, and apparently the reason for their survival, is
that each of them suffered a near-death experience at the
very moment the experiment went awry. All the major aspects
of the near-death experience are included. |
DEAD
HEAT - In this dark comedy, a dead cop
continues his crime fighting career against resurrected dead
criminals by having himself resurrected by the same machine
that brought back the criminals. This movie incorporates the
NDE aspects of: the
out-of-body experience, the total
peace, and
the light. |
DEAD
AGAIN -
An L.A. detective's humdrum life is shaken up by the
appearance of a beautiful woman suffering from amnesia. Her
memory returns in a series of increasingly violent
flashbacks, some of which date back to a former life in
which the detective was her possibly homicidal husband. |
HEART
AND SOULS - When four nice people die the night
a boy is born, they become guardian angels visible only to
the boy. When it seems they are interfering with his life
they withdraw, but when he needs their help as an adult they
come back to help him - and maybe he can help them fulfill
their own unfulfilled missions in life. |
MADE
IN HEAVEN - The film begins with the untimely
death of its hero and his arrival in heaven. After some
initial adjustments, he meets Annie and falls in love. Annie
is a new soul due on earth and he must risk everything and
return to earth to find her. |
THE
SEARCH FOR BRIDEY MURPHY - A woman under
hypnosis remembers a prior life ... and death. This video is
based on real-life events. This story is well-known in
reincarnation circles because it provides
very strong evidence supporting the reality of
reincarnation. |
A
CHRISTMAS CAROL - Scrooge is visited by three
spirit beings who take him on a journey in order to show him
how his life has affected everyone around him in his past,
present and future. He is told he can change the future he
sees if only he changes his life for the better. This movie
presents an excellent example of how a life review can
change someone's life. |
IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE - When a good man tries
to end his own life, his guardian angel appears to show him
what the world would be like without him. This movie is an
excellent representation of how the life review aspect of a
NDE, and the NDE itself, can produce
profound after-effects. |
WIZARD
OF OZ -
Dorothy
becomes unconscious, travels through a tunnel, finds herself
in an enchanted wonderland, meets unusual beings, is taken
to an "Emerald City" to see a powerful God-like
being, and eventually returns to earth. And you thought this
was just a child's story. |

"Day by day we are building for eternity, every gentle word,
every generous thought, every unselfish deed will become a
pillar of eternal beauty in the life to come."
