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

And I despise the sequels a lot. Damn. I can't wait for Piranha 3D though, Aja is a horror prophet.
-
yeah
-
Final 2 was fucking awesome. 3 not so much.
-
If he comes back from the Nascar (or whatever) vision and a dragon came swooping down and raked everyone with its claws and flames, that would be cool. This is the exact opposite.
-
Better deaths and more of them.
-
Just google the short story Guts by Chuck Palaniuk......nothing this movie could do can be more gruesome than that.
-
These movies are SO awful, and yet you can't HELP but watch them!
I mean .. seriously.. how retarded can these people be? And yet it just happens over and over and over again LOL.
*sigh* Oh well, I'll rent it like I did the others. At least I can still hold my head up high and swear I never EVER saw a single chapter of "I know what color your poop was last Summer", or whatever it was called. -
Really? I thought the exact opposite. 2 was way gorier and more inventive. Just compare the traffic pileup to that roller coaster thing, for starters.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
-
And that brunette at the beginning was definitely retired early in the movie. Geddit??
-
Just by virtue of the fact that there was a sequel. Because, the first one was obviously not the FINAL destination. That's fucking fraud, dude!
-
That is exactly what I was imagining when I saw the guy get stuck in the pool. That story still makes my stomach churn.
-
Let's see those teenybopper scamps try and outwit death AND grammar!
-
had their better moments, like watching a train wreck....um. maybe for Final Destination 5...
-
Might be the two I see in theaters. 3D Goldbergs. I'm in for $6 matinee.
-
no one better than David Ellis to handle car stunts - the guy is amazing!
-
...teenyboppers.
-
but they both suck. Part 3 just has better deaths.
-
... if the last one was 3-D, it could have been "Final Destination 3D". But since they made the 4th one 3-D, what are they going to call it? "Final Destination 4D... uh, sorry... 3D... uh, we mean... 4 In 3D... or uh... Something"?
-
and is not pretending to be any good. Gavin Hood, JJ Abrams and McG please take note.
-
... all the teenyboppers who saw the first one are now well on their way to pushing 30 at this point. Which is why no one gives a damn about this lame-ass sequel.
-
it looks expensive, which is a first for the series(the others didnt look cheap its just this one looks like a summer film...which it is) Im definitely looking forward to this the final destination series has a special place in my heart, I was 10 or 11 when the first one came out and I convinced my mom to take me to it the day it came out, making it the first horror & R rated movie I ever saw in theaters.
-
...that actually happened to a kid a few years ago. Yeesh... and I think the kid is actually still alive. Must be a bitch having to live on intravenous nutrient solution permanently for life.
-
Luckily Cameron will show us how to use 3D PROPERLY
-
read Palahniuk's "Guts". Then sue me.
-
Yep, I was right, it did actually happen. Here's a link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minneapolis_Golf_Club#Pool_drain_accident
-
Yes that is correct it happened to a 6 year old girl, all the intestines were sucked out.

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.
-
You knew it was coming.
-
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!
-
All right, kids . . . but this is the FINAL Destination.
-
GIANT PIG!!!
-
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.
-
Good to go.
-
I hear Final Destination is going to be rebooted. Christian Bale to play death. They say he will kill everybody with lights and various lighting equipment.
Will be directed by Abrams, McG, and eBay each will do 3 different movies. -

I only seen part one, but I must admit I was entertained
by ganymede3010
You don't go into a movie like this expecting strong acting and bone-chilling plot twists. Seeing this in 3-D will be extremely entertaining.
-
Because that's the only part where they tried to build up some suspense and not just played the deaths for laughs only.
(But I gotta admit, the scene at the Dentist in part 2 is my favourite scene of the whole series. ) -

Didn't Mallrats already tell us that you have to fear escalators
by derlanghaarige
-
that every character will ask for someone to hand them something as opposed to just picking it up. Think about it. "Er, thanks for the beer, but did you have to carefully move it towards my eyes?"
-
that would be the Kiss of Death right there!!
-
Are they really THAT much over using numbers? Will Spider Man 4 just be called THE Spider Man?
-
It should look wicked!
-
is like choosing your favorite flavor of Shasta.
-
But the best thing about FD3 is they kill EVERYBODY!
-
When is 2001 Maniacs, the Beverly Hellbillys coming out?
-
Come to think of it, what was the last franchise whose latest film stuck to a number system? Seems like that has fallen out of favor in Hollywood... I'm thinking about Fast/Furious, Terminator, Star Trek, X-Men (though that is technically a prequel)... and those are just this year! Seriously, what was the last franchise whose latest/final film was numbered?
-
And wasn't one of the Spider-sequels going to be "The Spectacular Spider-Man" or "Amazing Spider-Man" originally?
-
The "worst franchise ever" is making more money than you are.
-
I'd give that title to Fast & Bi-Furious. At least these have some creative deaths...
-
The Final Destination will sit nicely alongside Nightmare: Freddy's Dead, Ft13: The Final Chapter, and X-men The Last Stand as movies that were NOT the last in a franchise because someone wanted make more cash.
-
...so, what´s the point of watching the movie now? It kinda ruined it for me, damnit.
-
Unless my dragon death I mentioned earlier comes true. You won't see it coming! (Except that I just told you.) Bah!
-
... FINAL DESTINATION movie is the best is moronic. They all suck. It's like saying which SAW movie is your favorite. They all suck.
-
Not to be confused with the AMERICAN TAIL reboot, FIEVAL'S DESTINATION.
-
For a movie series that has the collective intelligence of a moldy turnip, the interstate pileup from part 2 was one of the better scenes in B-movie trash from the last 10 years. Gotta love that log punching through the cop car.
-
That traffic pile-up in the beginning was beautifully choreographed and gory as hell - loved the chunks of meat-flesh on the tip of those logs as they flew out the cop car's back window.
-
These movies are fun. You have to be slightly twisted to enjoy them.
-
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???
-
Me and my homies loved slowing that shit down
-
Might have to be he kid who gets smashed by the plate of glass in 2 or 3 I can't remember which one that happens in, I think it's the second. Then right after it is the one at the end of FD2 where that random kid explodes at the BBQ and his arm lands on his moms plate. I mean what the fuck? That made no sense and I loved it.
-
Seeing this in between obits for David Carradine would be funny, except these movies suck. Also just a bit insensitive to have a movie with nothing but horrible death scenes posted next to an actual horrible death.
-
I'll watch it! I liked the other ones. Actually, the first one has some significance because of what was happening in my life a the time. Anyway, yeah... they're crappy, but they're fun.
-
It's not like death came up and pulled a FD1 and made carradince hang himself. If he was found in the bathtub with a bunch of shampoo in the tub hanging from a clothesline, then I'd be suspicious. Was this Death's ultimate plan??? To have two obituaries on the release day of the trailer??
-
If maybe this site's posting should be more categorized so we don't get mash ups like this. Just a thought.
-
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.
-
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.
-
Why aren't people bitching about the fricken Scream Trilogy, that was the dumbest shit ever conceived, and not to mention that but they're rebooting the whole series. I enjoy most remakes, ill give em a shot once, if i dont like em I dont watch em again, but Scream? Come on, i will never watch a reboot of that shitty series.
-
They don't jokingly refer to escalators as Meat Grinders for no reason... Some of those bitches are capable of taking your shoes and stuff. That wood one at Macy's still makes me extra cautious.
-
But your right, its no one's fault at AICN that the stories broke like this. I've been a long time reader at this site, and only started this TB account today to get the word out to fans about Carradine's death so we could mourn. Instead I got mostly alot of jackasses making terribly inappropriate comments and names and it ticked me off. Not the fault of AICN or its crew. Keep up the good work guys.
-
I mean, really, did this have to be placed between the two Carradine eulogies?
-
3D is so déclassé. Why settle for such a common technology when we should demand the most ultra in cinema presentation.
-
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.
-
because big ol fake tits is sexy? dont get me wrong, as a perv i was totally excited to see them get naked but once they did...yeah....my excitment died before they even turned on the beds.
-
if he thinks part 2 was the best. That was one of the worst, straight-to-video-looking movies I ever seen. And this idiot likes it. This site has SHIT taste.
-
2nd movie's director did it.
-
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?
-
THIS MOVIE WILL ROCK..HEY HAVE YOU GUYS SEE THE STORY ABOUT SCARFACE 2..YEP NO JOKE,,OVER AT ALLMOVIENEWS.NET..ITS NOT THE BEST WEB SITE..BUT THE WRITTING IS GREAT..
-
Never saw 3.this looks cool but ffs could they cast some better actors.shit whats c.thomas howell or lou diamond phillips up to these days?
-
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.
-
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.
-
So says NoScript on Firefox.
-
we all know where that scene came from. Right out the short story Guts. The rock through the lawn mower to the face death. That shit's ripped from Crazy in Alabama- It took an eye in that film- not a life. The Nascar shit... Well fuck the writer or writers of this S bomb are unoriginal scene ripping twats. fucking asshole who rip shit from better films and call it their own piss me off!!! Chuck you should fucking sue these fucking pricks!
-
is it set in khali-phorn-yea?
-
Aren't all these fucking movies the same?
-
wow.. way to basically reveal every single death scene in the trailer... just without the gory bit.
-
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.
-
which in the case of the F.D. series is NEVER!!!
-
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.
-
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? -
. . . the eyeball-popping scene from Friday the 13th Part 3-D?
Two eyes popping out of the skull and flying straight at the audience.
Hehehehehehehehehehe... -
. . . and number 2 because of the highway crash and the barbecue explosion.
Hehehehehehehehehe... -
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!
-
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).
-
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.
-
was pretty lame, as was Ali Larter's demise.
-
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 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. -
