That’s not bad, but have you ever met someone who loved Flatliners and was dying (ha) to see a new version? Are there Flatliners conventions out there were fans cosplay as their favorite characters and pretend to shock each other with defibrillator paddles? The reality is Flatliners owed most of its box office success to opening in theaters a few months after Pretty Woman, which made Julia Roberts one of the biggest movie stars on the planet. Without her, the Flatliners remake in 2017 was a flop.

That’s not bad, but have you ever met someone who loved Flatliners and was dying (ha) to see a new version? Are there Flatliners conventions out there were fans cosplay as their favorite characters and pretend to shock each other with defibrillator paddles? The reality is Flatliners owed most of its box office success to opening in theaters a few months after Pretty Woman, which made Julia Roberts one of the biggest movie stars on the planet.
