Editorial Review:
Dr. Eric Robinson wants to believe and experience that infinite love and warmth that near death" testimonies claim is on the other side of life. His colleague, Dr. Marissa Holloway, is on a crusade to alleviate the fear of death and suffering by proving to the world that heaven awaits everyone. In a moment of desperation, Dr. Robinson faces death and discovers the reality of hell - a place the Bible vividly portrays - a hell from which we must all escape
Escape from Hell Reviews:
Very dramatic - should make a non-believer think 
2008-04-20 - I cannot help but wonder if there has been a real-life story like this....has there been a non-believing doctor out there somewhere just crazy enough to try this kind of stunt and maybe even not have been revived back.
Nevertheless, the movie may be over-dramatized but it should make a non-believer stop and think what is happening to people when they die and come back to life... what is actually going on and give them desire to do some searching into the Bible.
Would it not just make more sense to be prepared to die than to take a chance on dying and find out there is a "hell"?
Great heart but...............disappointing 
2008-02-27 - A great idea - you can't argue with the desire to inform, as well as entertaining, that a real afterlife follows this life on earth, and we get to choose the destination! That's powerful.
However, in terms of honesty I found the plot slow, drawn out at times, and a little incredulous. By today's standards I am afraid the depictions of hell were so mild to be almost benign and the effects, again by today's standards, not hugely impressive.
Maybe worth buying to use clips from with small groups (subject to licensing etc)
not too great 
2006-08-08 - I order & watched this movie last year, and as far as Christian films go, I personally have seen MUCH better-I can't explain it too well, except that the acting was just OK, and the film type they used felt home-movieish & amateurish. The messages they were conveying were right on the money, tho. The special effects were good, tho, and the idea about the sign on top of the hospital was really clever. Would I buy it again? Hmm, probably not. It didn't give me chills once.
Just Agree
2006-05-14 - I just want to say that I agree with the opinion given by Tommy C. Ellis.
Why would a loving God create hell?
2005-11-02 - Escape from Hell grapples with a fascinating topic. Many theological answers have been compiled, but this still stumps people. The depth of God's love contrasted with the horror of an eternal hell. The film is an hour-long video drama that explores this question from the perspective of a clinical researcher who believes that it would be wonderful if the existence of a heaven-like afterlife could be proven, because this knowledge would aid psychologists in helping patients and loved ones cope with death. Her partner in this quest is a medical doctor struggling with his own demons of depression, emptiness, and anger against God.
The bottom-line message is that hell is real, and it is really bad. Either hell-preaching Christians are fear-mongers, adopting immature and psychologically harmful tactics, or the more liberal variety of Christian is offering a false hope to everyone, and is failing to give necessary warning. Escape from Hell may not convince you, but it will foster much food for thought.
Bottom-line: The dialogue is intelligent, and the acting is good. The action and storyline are acceptable, but not outstanding. This is a decent film, suitable for showing to those open to Christian teachings.
