Seen it? A pretty good movie with a different idea of Heaven and Hell.
We create our own!
If you haven't seen it, I strongly recommend it (written by Richard Matheson, who also did Legend Of Hell House, Night Stalker, Somewhere In Time, etc.).

It was more entertaining than I expected it to be. You are so right about a different interpretation of the afterlife. The movie makes it seem like each person is responsible for punishing themselves if they think it is warranted.
Robin Williams did a great job in the movie. Can't remember seeing him play such a low-key, tortured character. He really carries the picture.

I loved this movie as well, although my parents thought it was a load of garbage...losers. I like to think of this as the right view of heaven and hell, because (if I do get to go to heaven
) I want to be reunited with my pets and I want to look a certain way and I want to meet certain people.

I was always taught we create our own Hell. Hmmmm - maybe my mom IS God after all.
