: There's no excuse for missing dead zone. Chris Walken? come on
Oops...sorry! Meant "The Dead Zone" that is on TELEVISON, not the one that Chris Walken did.
Chris was great as John Smith, but again, the story was changed enough that it didn't quite jell right.
I thought someone other than Martin Sheen could have played the part of the guy who ended up running for president, and I wasn't crazy about the girl who played John's former fiancee, but the story was great, and yes, Walken is EXCELLENT in the part...
Sorry for the error...again, I meant the televison version of "Dead Zone."
