You're Finished

I keep thinking of the last scene in "The Dead Zone" when Johnny Smith (Christopher Walken) who can touch a man and see into the future, goes to put a bullet in Greg Stillson (Martin Sheen) before the lunatic can become president and start a nuclear holocaust. Hmmm. Wonder why I keep thinking of this.

Johnny doesn't do the job because Stillson shows his true colors and holds a baby up in front of himself to block the shots. A kid takes a picture (btw: Sheen's kid Ramon Estevez). Johnny grabs onto Stillson's hand one last time and sees the photo on the cover of Time Magazine...and sees Stillson blow his brains out over it. "It's over" he mutters. "You're finished."

Great ending.
