David Cronenberg turns The Dead Zone into an accomplished psychological thriller. Full Review

Chicago Reader
By no means a bad film, just a disappointingly bland and superficial one. Full Review
Janet Maslin
The New York Times
A well-acted drama more eerie than terrifying, more rooted in the occult than in sheer horror. Full Review

It never really chills you, but then it never insults you, either, and it's more affecting than you expect any film based on a Stephen King novel to be. [22 Oct 1983] Full Review

The Globe and Mail (Toronto)
The Dead Zone, from the book by Stephen King, a horror novelist whose prolific output is the scariest thing about him, is academic filmmaking all the way, a crafty Establishment tour de force. [21 Oct 1983] Full Review
