As in Stephen King’s novella of the same name, this two-night made-for-TV movie follows the ten people who find that they’re the only ones left on board a transcontinental flight. Even after they land, nobody else is on the ground. In order of importance, the movie is about (1) the characters, (2) horror, and (3) a little speculative fiction. In the end, the resolution (involving time) is the same as in the novella. —Michael Main
I’ve been sitting here, running all these old stories through my head, you know: time warps, space warps, alien raiding parties. I mean, we really don’t know if there’s anything left down there, do we?
A staunch Patricia Wettig (as Laurel Stevenson) stares straight ahead with four
                cast members, a clouded Earth, and a jetliner in the background.

Jake Epping's dying friend Al points him toward a rabbit hole that always leads to the same moment in 1958, so what can he do other than live in the Land of Ago, fall in love with Sadie, stalk Oswald and become America’s hero?
Save him, okay? Save Kennedy and everything changes.
