A stunning achievement in visual effects, Vincent Ward's epic fantasy follows a man's literal journey through heaven and hell in an attempt to rejoin the wife he left behind. Using the styles of several different artists (including a Hieronymus Bosch-inspired depiction of hell), Ward and his army of effects wizards bring some truly dazzling visions to life. With Robin Williams, Annabella Sciorra, Cuba Gooding, Jr., Max von Sydow and, in a most peculiar cameo, director Werner Herzog as one of many heads that fill part of the ground in hell. Based on the novel by Richard Matheson.
