This week’s iTunes $.99 movie of the week is the sci-fi classic Dead Zone (warning - iTunes link). This week’s movie will be on sale until 17 March, 2008. Here is the official iTunes description:
Christopher Walken plays a schoolteacher, Johnny Smith, who awakens from a five-year coma. He discovers that he has acquired the ability to foretell a person’s future simply by touching his or her hand. After seeing several examples, Smith’s doctor (Herbert Lom) becomes convinced that Smith can not only predict the future, but also has the power to change it. This ability is given its severest test when Smith shakes the hand of ruthless political candidate Greg Stillson (Martin Sheen)—and suddenly has a flash-forward to a nuclear holocaust. The Dead Zone is not only one of the best-ever Stephen King adaptations, but also one of the most consistently successful (and least gory) efforts of director David Cronenberg.
With the addition of a SDK, dozens of promised games, and cheap movie rentals, this little iPhone of mine is becoming quite the little super-handheld.
Make sure to come back each week to check on the $.99 movie.
