Beyond and Back is a 1978 American documentary/"death-sploitation flick"[3][4] produced and distributed by Sunn Classic Pictures that deals with the subject of near death experiences.

Beyond and Back was produced by Sunn Classic Pictures, a Utah-based independent film company that specialized in releasing low-budget message movies to non-urban audiences.

Directing chores went to James L. Conway, who had helmed Sunn's speculative fiction vehicle The Lincoln Conspiracy the previous year.

This approach "avoided the audiences and the critical media in Los Angeles and New York... if the film failed in any single market, negative word of mouth did not spread to the next locale.

It exists on about the same cinematic level as an Army training film or one of those junior high chemistry movies in which the experiments never quite worked.
