Final Destination is an American horror franchise that comprises 5 films, comic books and novels. It is based on an unproduced spec script by Jeffrey Reddick, originally written for the X-Files television series, and was distributed by New Line Cinema. All five films center around a protagonist that has a premonition of a terrible accident that will kill numerous people. The protagonist and several other people manage to escape from the scene of the accident, before it happens, but are later killed in a series of bizarre accidents that frequently resemble Rube Goldberg machines in their complexity.

The series is noteworthy amongst others in the horror genre in that the "villain" of the movies is not the stereotypical slasher, but Death itself (very occasionally seen as a fleeting shadow), which manipulates the environment with the intent of claiming the lives of those who managed to escape their fates.

In addition to the films, a novel series (which includes the novelizations of the first three films) was published throughout 2005 and 2006 by Black Flame. A one-shot comic book titled Final Destination: Sacrifice was released alongside select DVDs of Final Destination 3 in 2006, and a comic series titled Final Destination: Spring Break was published by Zenescope Entertainment in 2007.

Films

Final Destination (2000)

High school student Alex Browning (Devon Sawa) boards Volee Airlines Flight 180 for a field trip to Paris. Before take-off, Alex has a premonition that the plane will explode in mid-air, killing everyone on board. When the events from his vision begin to repeat themselves in reality, he panics, and a fight breaks out, which leads to a handful of passengers being left behind including Clear Rivers (Ali Larter), Carter Horton (Kerr Smith), Billy Hitchcock (Seann William Scott), Valerie Lewton (Kristen Cloke), Terry Chaney (Amanda Detmer), and Tod Waggner (Chad Donella), who witness the plane explode moments later. Afterwards, the survivors begin to die one by one through a series of bizarre accidents, and Alex attempts to find a way to "cheat" Death's plan before its too late. Six months later, Alex, Clear, and Carter travel to Paris, to celebrate their survival, believing they have finally cheated Death; however, after Carter is crushed by a giant neon sign, they realize that Death's plan is still in action.

Final Destination 2 (2003)

One year after the first film, college student Kimberly Corman (A. J. Cook) is heading to Daytona Beach for spring break with her friends Shaina, Dano, and Frankie (Sarah Carter, Alex Rae, and Shaun Sipos) En route, Kimberly has a premonition of a massive car pile-up on Route 23, killing everyone involved. She stalls her SUV on the entrance ramp preventing state trooper Thomas Burke (Michael Landes), Eugene Dix (T.C. Carson), Rory Peters (Jonathan Cherry), Kat Jennings (Keegan Connor Tracy), Nora and Tim Carpenter (Lynda Boyd and James Kirk), Evan Lewis (David Paetkau), and pregnant Isabella Hudson (Justina Machado) from entering the freeway. While Officer Burke questions Kimberly, the pile-up occurs as she predicted. In the days following the accident, the survivors begin to die on by one. After learning about the explosion of flight 180, Kimberley teams up with Clear, the last survivor, to try to save a new group of people from Death. This time the survivors are told that only "new life" can defeat Death, and must stay alive long enough for Isabella to have her baby. It is later revealed that Isabella was never meant to die in the pileup, and Kimberly drowns herself in a lake so that she can be resuscitated by emergency staff, thus granting her "new life"; saving her and Thomas.

Final Destination 3 (2006)

Six years after the explosion of Flight 180, and five years after the pile-up on Route 23, high school student Wendy Christensen (Mary Elizabeth Winstead), visits an amusement park for grad night with her friends Kevin Fischer (Ryan Merriman), Jason Wise (Jesse Moss), and Carrie Dreyer (Gina Holden). As Wendy and her friends board the Devil's Flight roller coaster, Wendy has a premonition that the ride will crash, killing everyone on board. When Wendy panics and fight breaks out and several people get off the roller coaster including Kevin, Wendy's younger sister Julie (Amanda Crew), Ian McKinley (Kris Lemche), Perry Malinowski (Maggie Ma), Erin Ulmer (Alexz Johnson), Lewis Romero (Texas Battle), Frankie Cheeks (Sam Easton), and Ashley Freund and Ashlyn Halperin (Chelan Simmons and Crystal Lowe), before the accident occurs. When the survivors begin to die one by one in a series of strange accidents, Wendy and Kevin set out to save those who remain. Most of their attempts are futile, with the exception of Julie, and themselves, leading them to believe they have cheated death. However, the three "coincidentally" cross paths five months later and are killed in a horrifying subway accident.

The Final Destination (2009)

Ten years after the explosion of Flight 180, nine years after the pileup on Route 23, and three years after the Devil's Flight roller coaster derailment, college student Nick O'Bannon (Bobby Campo) visits the McKinley Speedway for a study break with his friends Lori Milligan, Janet Cunningham, and Hunt Wynorski. While watching the race, Nick has a premonition that multiple race cars will crash, sending debris into the stands and causing the stadium to collapse. Nick persuades Lori (Shantel VanSanten), Janet (Haley Webb), and Hunt (Nick Zano), security guard George Lanter (Mykelti Williamson), and spectators Jonathan Groves (Jackson Walker), Andy Kewzer (Andrew Fiscella), Samantha Lane (Krista Allen), Carter Daniels (Justin Welborn), and Nadia Monroy (Stephanie Honoré) to leave the stadium, before the accident occurs. Once again, the survivors are killed in a series of strange accidents except for Janet, who is rescued just moments before her death. This leads the remaining survivors to believe that they have cheated Death plan, until Nick has another premonition of a disastrous explosion at a shopping mall, which he manages to prevent, saving him, Lori, and Janet. Two weeks later, Nick realizes the mall disaster vision was only meant to lead them to where Death wanted them to be and they are all killed by a runaway semi-trailer truck.

Final Destination 5 (2011)

Sam Lawton (Nicholas D'Agosto) is on his way to a corporate retreat with his colleagues. While they cross the North Bay Bridge Sam has a premonition that the bridge will collapse, killing everyone on it. Sam manages to persuade his co-workers Molly Harper (Emma Bell), Nathan Sears (Arlen Escarpeta), Peter Friedkin (Miles Fisher), Dennis Lapman (David Koechner), Olivia Castle (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood), Isaac Palmer (P. J. Byrne), and Candice Hooper (Ellen Wroe), to leave the bridge before his vision becomes a reality. After Candice and Isaac die in bizarre accidents, Sam is warned about Death is still after the survivors and told that if he wants to live he must kill someone who was never meant to die on the bridge, and claim their remaining lifespan. Olivia and Dennis are killed before they have a chance to save themselves, but Nathan claims the lifespan of a co-worker when he accidentally causes his death in a warehouse accident. Peter attempts to kill Molly, jealous that she survived instead of Candice. He eventually gains the lifespan of an investigating agent, but is killed by Sam before he can kill Molly. Sam and Molly later board a plane to Paris, which is later revealed to be Flight 180, and both are killed in the resulting explosion. The landing gear is sent towards New York City and crashes into a cocktail bar, killing Nathan.

Structure of the films

The movies are different in themselves, but all have the same structure.

The movies begin traditionally with the opening credits which is the same in each film, but remixed to accommodate the changing situations and characters. The film then opens with the main character in a place prone to accidents (such as an airport, a highway, an amusement park, a race track, a suspension bridge, etc.) and starts to have a feeling that something bad is going to happen. There are also several signs foreshadowing an imminent disaster. Soon after, the accident occurs, resulting in the deaths of several people. When the main character realizes it was just a premonition they panic, which results in in several people leaving just moments before the accident occurs. After the accident the main character still feels as though something is wrong, and after a few survivors die, they seek out an explanation and realize that Death is killing the survivors one by one, and in the same order they would have died in the accident. The main character continues to see signs foreshadowing the next survivors death, and in some cases teams up with some of the other survivors to prevent it. The film then ends with the last two or three survivors thinking they have finally cheated Death, only to realize that their efforts were futile.

Signs

Signs are always present throughout the films, and some just are perceived by the protagonist and others can be perceived by other character. The premonitory signs MUST be understood to be deciphered. They can be words, visions, signs, photos, banners, songs, numbers and etc. The visions are present in detailed forms on the first, second and fourth films. It's not really like a premonition, but usually show how the next character will die. They must decipher who is the character and how they will die, which is not always clear. The same happens in the third film, however, unlike visions, the characters have photos. On the 5th film, the victims themselves recognize the signs (finger cut or broken picture, for example). Some songs are also present in the movies like "Rocky Mountain High" by John Denver (who died in a plane crash), "Highway to Hell" by AC/DC in Final Destination 2, "Turn Around, Look At Me" by The Lettermen in Final Destination 3, "Dust In The Wind" by Kansas in Final Destination 5. The number 180 (flight number of the first film) is an important number in the franchise. It appears in all the films, referencing Death.

Examples of signs

  • The paper that contained the name of Tod flew to Alex, but he did not realize Tod was the first victim. (Final Destination)
  • Wherever the number 180 appears something happens.
  • The beer brand (Ice Pale Ale) that appears in the truck (Final Destination 2), could be understood only by those who saw the 1st movie, because it was the beer Alex, Clear and Carter drink in Paris.
  • The trophy with a hook (looked like a man with hooks). It was seen by Rory. (Final Destination 2)
  • Ian pointing a pistol at Erin. Later Erin dies impaled by nails from a nailgun. (Final Destination 3)
  • Nick's signs on the 4th film were basically dreams. (The Final Destination)
  • A photo of Nick and Lori falls to the ground and a certain sharp object falls on it. (The Final Destination)
  • Alex's father tells him that "he has a whole life ahead". (Final Destination)
  • Jason says to Wendy "they'll meet at the end". (Final Destination 3)
  • The truck that kills Frankie and almost hits Kevin and Wendy is similar to that seen in the second movie. It also have the saying "Drink responsibly". (Final Destination 3)
  • Olivia's picture at the Devil's Flight (Final Destination 3). The portrait cracks over her right eye. (Final Destination 5)

Death

Death is presented in each film as an evil presence that follows the main characters, with the intent of reclaiming the lives of those who managed to avoid their original deaths. This is usually done by manipulating the environment in deadly ways. Although Death is not a physical entity, it sometimes appears as a dark shadow in the first film. William Bludworth, a mortician who is more knowlegable about Death than anyone else, reveals that Death decides how and when everyone will die, and although Deaths plan can be cheated, trying to do so will only make it angrier.

Death's plan

It is implied in Final Destination 2 that Death has a grand design that everyone fits into. The survivors end up dying in the same order that they should have died in the initial accident and in reverse order in Final Destination 2. Some movies don't show the entire Death list, that should logically be discovered by the characters (as in Final Destination 3 and Final Destination). Some survivors don't have their death shown in the premonition nor do they join the others characters before the real accident occurs. The way to break the list is when the next to die is saved, and then Death passes to the next. Meanwhile, as seen in the movies, you cannot die before it's your turn. When the list is complete, Death restarts its cycle. You can see that the protagonist is always the last on the list (even in Final Destination 2, where Kimberly would be first on the list and after being saved, she becomes the last).

Flight 180 and connections

As shown in the second film, deaths are connected with each other (flight 180 survivors indirectly engaged with the highway survivors), and so on. Clear Rivers says Death was working in the opposite way to repair the edges left in the first film and that leaving the airplane changed the whole scheme of Death. Thus, we can say that the death of all the characters in the franchise are connected to the flight 180 survivors. Hadn't they come out and hadn't Sam left the bridge before the airplane crash, all the characters of the films would already be dead.

Cheating Death

There are several theories on how one can cheat Death:

  • Intervening - The characters think that if they intervene by saving someone it will break the chain, but Death will only skip that person temporarily, and repeat the cycle.
  • Kill the last on the list - This theory is mentioned by Ian in Final Destination 3, who suggests that If the last person on the list were to kill themselves, it would ruin Death's plan. However, you cannot die before it is your turn as shown in Final Destination 2 and 4.
  • New life can defeat Death - This theory raised in Final Destination 2 maintains that if a person is born of one of the survivors, it would introduce a new life to the list that was not originally meant to be, thus ruining Death's plan. Another theory raised in this film is that if someone who isn't next on Death's list were to die and be brought back to life they would be given a "new life", and in turn save everyone else since they technically died out of order, thus ruining deaths list.
  • Kill or be killed - This theory occurred in Final Destination 5. If a survivor kills someone who is not on the list, that person would take their place in death and they would be given that persons remaining lifespan.

Future

On February 1, 2011, Tony Todd said in an interview with DreadCentral that if Final Destination 5 was a success at the box office, then two sequels would be filmed back-to-back.[1] On August 23, 2011, when inquired whether he would be directing a sequel, Steven Quale elaborated, "Who knows. Never say never. I mean, it'll be up to the fans. We'll see how this one performs internationally and if it makes as much money as the fourth one, I'm sure Warner Brothers will want to make another one."

Novels

Throughout 2005, publishing company Black Flame released a series of Final Destination books which faithfully follow the premise of the films, with each involving a group of people who find themselves targeted by Death after surviving a catastrophe of some sort due to a character experiencing a precognitive vision.

  • The first novel, entitled Dead Reckoning, has punk rocker Jessica Golden saving herself and several others from the collapse of Club Kitty in Los Angeles, earning Death's ire.[Novels 1]
  • Destination Zero, also set in LA, has magazine employee Patricia Fuller and few others survive a train bombing and afterward, while being stalked by Death, Patti learns this is not the first time her family has been hunted by the entity.[Novels 2]
  • End of the Line has a group of New York subway crash survivors, led by twins Danny and Louise King, trying to escape Death, who uses an unknowing agent to hasten its acquisition of the survivors.[Novels 3]
  • In Dead Man's Hand a group meant to die in the crash of a Las Vegas glass elevator are stalked by both Death and the FBI, the latter believing the group's savior Allie Goodwin-Gaines was responsible for the elevator crash.[Novels 4]
  • Looks Could Kill has beautiful New York model Stephanie "Sherry" Pulaski stopping her friends from boarding a yacht when she has a vision of it exploding, but is left horribly disfigured and comatose by flying debris moments afterward when her vision comes true; eventually awakening the embittered Stephanie makes a deal with Death, aiding it in claiming her friends in exchange for having her good looks restored.[Novels 5]
  • After the run of the original series of books Black Flame released novelizations of the first three films in January 2006.[Novels 6][Novels 7][Novels 8] Black Flame's last Final Destination novel was Death of the Senses released in mid-2006. Taking place in New York the book has a homeless man named Jack Curtis saving policewoman Amy Tom from a maniac after having a vision of Amy's death; Amy's attacker is later revealed to be a serial killer who was meant to murder six other people (representing the first five senses and a sixth) who Death begins targeting as Jack and Amy rush to find and warn the intended victims.[Novels 9] It was, due to a printing error, only available for a short period of time before being recalled, leaving only a few copies in circulation.
  • A tenth novel, titled Wipeout and written by Alex Johnson, was planned, but cancelled; the book would have featured a pair of surfers and several others, after surviving a plane crash in Hawaii, being hunted by Death and the survivor of another disaster, an unstable soldier who had nearly died in an ambush in Afghanistan.[Novels 10]

Comics

The first Final Destination comic book, entitled Sacrifice, was published by Zenescope Entertainment and came packaged with a limited edition DVD of Final Destination 3 sold exclusively at Circuit City. The premise of the story involves the survivor of a terrible accident, who continually experiences images of other people's deaths, isolating himself from the rest of the world to escape the visions that torment him. Zenescope later released a five issue miniseries, subtitled Spring Break, which involves a group led by Carly Hagan being stalked by Death after surviving a hotel fire and becoming stranded in Cancún, Mexico.[2] The miniseries was later released in a trade paperback collection, which included the Sacrifice comic as bonus content.[2]
