Tony Todd says "shh, you'll wake the dead" after Alex and Clear break into the coroner's office. Todd starred in the remake of "Night of the Living Dead" in 1990, which showed the recently dead mysteriously returning to life and attacking the living humans. See more »
Goofs
(at around 1h 20 mins) Downed power lines do not flail about wildly setting fire and explosions to all they touch. They lie perfectly still on the ground, occasionally setting small fires to grass, trees, etc, unless they land directly on a building or vehicle. See more »
The opening credits are done in a ghosting format. See more »
Alternate Versions
The DVD features the following deleted scenes:
A love scene between Alex (Devon Sawa) and Clear (Ali Larter) on the beach.
A pregnancy test which reveals that Clear is pregnant from having sex with Alex.
A third ending where Alex is electrocuted and dies. After having their child, Clear has the gift of seeing "death" before it happens. Carter also survives.
Inventive, effectively eerie spine-chiller is a step up in the teen horror genre. High schooler Sawa has a horrific vision of his plane crashing just moments before its departure on a class field trip. He and several others exit the plane only to discover that it does in fact crash, but things take a shocking turn when the remaining survivors begin to die in the most mysterious ways. Story is intriguing, the suspense flows well throughout, and there are enough violent deaths to satisfy the target audience. The ending is a bit of a disappointment and should have been planned out better, but overall this is one of the better films of the genre. ***
