THE FINAL DESTINATION Promises Another Round Of Ghastly Rube Goldberg Deaths!!! In 3-D!!!

Published at:  Jun 04, 2009 2:44:48 PM CDT

Beaks here...



In David Ellis's THE FINAL DESTINATION, Death comes to NASCAR. In 3-D Took him long enough.

The Final Destination trailer in HD


That swimming pool death could be pretty fucking grisly if that drain is powerful enough to suck that poor bastard to the bottom. If your imagination is coming up short, do some Googling.

Ellis directed the franchise-best FINAL DESTINATION 2, so I'm thrilled to have him back right where he belongs. This looks like some exceptional end-of-summer trash (it's due out August 28). I can't wait to see if he can top the highway pileup opening of the second movie with the stock car disaster in this film. It's a shame he couldn't find a way to get some logs on that racetrack.

    by filmcans

    3 had all the deaths one would expect, but was missing a HUGE ingredient--the art of mis-direction. 2's deaths were, for the most part, telegraphed wrong intentionally for maximum surprise/shock. 3's deaths were telegraphed to let you know exactly how, when, and why the victim was about to bite it, thus removing a lot of the fun of 2.

    THE Final Destination

    by cinemanimetal

    I liked the title Death Trip 3D much better than this new title. In terms of the previous films I've only watched the first and second the whole way through. I remember thinking the first was a pretty fun stupid movie. Tony Todd's cameo was amazing. I didn't like his cameo in the second as much, but perhaps the movie was slightly more entertaining with the deaths. I only watched some of the death scenes (and the alternate deaths) from the choose your own adventure style dvd for the 3rd movie. They were pretty funny I'll give it that. Personally I can't wait to see that truck come at me in 3D!

    Because adding 3-D to a failing franchise always makes it better, right Jaws and Friday the 13th fans? The biggest problem with these movies is that you know the handsome white guy and his girlfriend will always live until the end of the movie. Wouldn't it be great if they killed the good looking people first and had nothing but fat, ugly non-white people survive? I might actually pay money to see that.

    BEST KILL

    by themovielover

    Okay there's been 3 movies, with something like 20 different kills (Not including opening sequences. So which is the best? We know the crash at the start of FD2 was the best opener, but I think the best kill is a good debate to have. Personally, it's between Mrs. Lewton in FD1 (computer screen to the neck, the stabbed by falling knife, then stabed again when falling chair hits knife) Rory in FD2 (cut into pieces by barbed wire) or the Tanning Bed in FD3 (because not only was it gruesome, but it also had some of the series' first sustained, and fantastic, nudity). So, i pose the question to you, talkbackers... what's been the best kill so far in the Final Destination series???

    in the franchise is exploring what that, if death is meant to get them all in the end ANYWAY, then why does the "chosen" person at the beginning of each film get to have their premonition of seeing the initial horrific event? I mean why would a person be given that "gift" if not to then use it to their advantage? That's kind of the giant plot hole throughout the whole series.

    by mr. profit

    When it inflated and impaled the girls head to the pole, it fucked with me. The problem with these movies is that they blow their load 10 minutes into the movie. The ending is never as strong as the beginning. Part 3 tried to have a big ending, but it felt tacked on and it was stupid. The rollercoaster also wasn't as bad ass as it could have been. I think Part 2 was the best one out of the series. As it boasts the most memorable deaths like the unexpected fire escape ladder to the face and the plate glass smash. Part 3 tried way to fucking hard with their random connecting of 9/11 to their plotline. It was cheesy. I hope this was is back to the craziness of Part 2.

    by cdubbs727

    The Final Destination series makes me giggle. The first was actually a pretty wicked little horror film/black comedy...I loved the use of John Denver music and I think the "bus death" in it is still one of the best jump scares I've had.

    The 2nd was dumb but I thought Ellis really ratched up the morbid humor. There was the kid who got eviscerated by a fence, the little kid blown up at the end...it was all a lot of fun.

    And Part 3 is probably my favorite just because it's so damn silly and puts a nice twist on the ending. So, despite having an awful name, The Final Destination will get my ticket.

    By the way...for everyone complaining that they show all the deaths in the previews, the fun part of the franchise is the way it knows you're anticipating the deaths so they build it up so you're predicting one thing and then at the last second something totally random happens instead.

    And launching at some chick will be a death scene this late in the game. You know there is way more to the shit they have shown. Of course they have to show a few things to get you into the theater. But remember, this movie is directed by the man who thought it was funny to have a guy search for a ring in a garbage disposal while a fire started in his house, have him get stuck in the disposal that had the potential to turn on and eat his hand, only to finally escape, go outside, slip on lo mein, have a ladder fly toward his face and stop, make him breath a sigh of relief, then bam... Face full of ladder. So do we really think they showed everything in the trailer? I think not. Expect way more shit that has not been shown. I think this movie will make the most out of all of them.

    It's their site, they're not being FORCED to edit it that way. They can place the final destination story whenever they want. They are constantly putting stories late anyway, why not this trailer?

    Another thing I don't get is...

    by spectrebeeyatch

    They actually have a element they could use more. Like these people who can see deaths plan before it happens? Why not make a story just about them? Have death change the plan to just eliminate them. Or have the government or a company chase them so they can control who lives or dies. I don't know it's just the same shit every time with crazy kills mixed in. Which is fine by me I just wonder why they haven't tried to move the story on at all... Well I know why actually the movies have made money so why change it.

    Fun series

    by williamzabkarox

    I remember when I first saw the trailer for the first FD. I thought it would be yet another lame teen horror movie however I found myself really enjoying it and the rest of the series. Of course we are currently living in the era of pointless remakes so I would much rather see more FD sequels because they are at least original ideas. They had some really fun death scenes. I would rather see this in 3D than a remake of a horror movie in 3D because with FD it would be much more fun because you truly don't know what to expect.

    let me get this straight...

    by bouncy x

    some people are complaining that this series is just the same thing over and over? while some of these same people think the Friday the 13th series is great? hmmmm. like Friday, these movies arent about the story or characters, they're about seeing the inventive ways they kill people. and in FD's case, about seeing if they'll die like things are leading too or if it'll be a total left turn.

    then proceed to praise Drag Me to Hell, which is so over-the-top that the whole thing feels like a cartoon. At least the FD films are grisly; the effects in DMTH were cheap and shitty-looking.

    by darkman

    That's all there is to it.

    FD3 was, in my opinion, as naked a cashgrab as you can imagine. This looks like a good step up...but why give away ALL the potential kills?

    I don't think I could ever get on a roller coaster again. Yeah, I'm a puss, I know. I'm just a puss with a very visual imagination. And the roller coaster 'vision' was, for me, fucking nightmare fuel. Big Ass Titties!

    Since when is Final Destination 2 the "Franchise Best"?

    by durendal

    Bullshit. FD2 sucked filthy hobo ass. Tons of inexplicable crap, continuity errors, and lazy fucking writing. The first one wasn't a great movie, but it at least it worked out well enough and made some semblance of sense. FD2 was just a fucking mess.

    Effin A dude. Don't ever trust the tastes of ANYone who writes for this site. From the top on down. I DID enjoy Devon Sawa's breakdown in the first movie, tho. Prolly how I'd react, sealing myself up in the most remote place I could find (and death-proof).

    Final Destination 2 was the best

    by forsakyn

    As filmcans pointed out earlier, it purposely timed the kills so you expected them to happen at a certain time, but then they actually happened when you weren't expecting them. That was a pretty cool feat. Most of all FD2 was the most outright entertaining of the series - I don't see a Final Destination film to see it be "smart." So I'm glad Ellis is back to direct the latest Final Destination. Budget does look pretty good for this, too.

    Two reasons:
    1) Unless I'm proven wrong, according to my memory FD #1 and #2 pretty well introduced the use of CGI for the "fast, gruesome death" that has since been copied so much that it's become a standard horror movie gimmick. So being one of the first to use the gimmick gives the FD franchise a lot of cred in my book.
    2) Killing her off really freaked me out as a viewer because I SO didn't expect it. It was a plot element that really played on the viewer's expectations for a franchise movie. Since she was the only one to return from the first flick, it was sort of implied that she'd be the common thread for future installments, but they blew that idea up but good in a big ball of flame. "Surprise", part of the scary movie trinity along with "suspense" and "red food coloring mixed with corn syrup".

    #1 and #2 are both great, but for different reasons.

    by royston lodge

    #1 introduced the really interesting concept, had decent writing, and introduced a few really good young actors.
    #2 introduced (sorta) the use of the "quick and bloody CGI death gag", and did it in a big way. When I'm driving up to my cottage in the woods, logging trucks really freak me out now thanks to that movie. I'm a little wary of barbecues as well. And wire fences.
    So, #2 is great because it introduced a horror movie gag that has since been replicated as nauseum. Being the first means FD2 gets the bragging rights.
