The afterlife is only fun for a little while in the first trailer for "Flatliners," a remake of a '90s horror movie of the same name.
The preview (above) shows Ellen Page ("Juno") leading a new group of a medical students - played by Nina Dobrev, Diego Luna, Kiersey Clemons and James Norton - experimenting with the line between life and death. At first their lives seem to benefit from stopping their hearts, or flatlining, for a few minutes to consciously explore what happens after death, but then things get freaky when they get a little too brave.
"Something is happening to us. I think I'm going crazy," Page's character says in a voiceover while flashing between reality and a ghostly world.

Sony will release the remake in theaters on Sept. 29 this year.
