This summer though,14 years later, its back withFinal Destination: Bloodlinesand thats our cue to take action.
5.The Final Destination(2009)
Oof.
You get the sense every decision in the film was based on how it would look in 3D.
Thats the only possible reason why so many terrible decisions are made.
Then, the ones who are friends are mostly unlikeable or flat.
Most of theFinal Destinationfilms are bad, but this is the worst.
2.Final Destination(2000)
Surprise!
You didnt expect that, did you?
The gap is massive between those groupings but, within the groupings, its quite close.
Then, all of those characters have pre-existing relationships which creates bigger emotions.
Watching it right along with its sequels, the original just feels better and fresh.
Youve actually been watching a prequel that crosses over with the original film in a super fun way.
The choice not only sets it apart, it elevates the movie above the rest.
Finally, someone making one of these sequels had an original, cool idea.
Plus theres that title: Bloodlines.
There arent many, if any, characters alive from the previous films.
Will there be DNA with the other films?
