This upcoming film is set to dominate the weekend box office — check out the trailer.
Final Destination Bloodlines | Official Teaser Trailer
The Final Destination franchise makes its return for a new installment after a 14-year absence from the big screen.
Final Destination: Bloodlines, which premieres on Friday, is forecasted to make a significant impact at the box office this weekend, potentially earning up to $60 million, according to Boxoffice Pro.
If you’re new to the franchise, IMDb categorizes the film under splatter horror, supernatural horror, and plain horror, providing a good indication of what to anticipate. It’s worth mentioning that Final Destination is renowned for its meticulously crafted death scenes, which might make you feel tense as they unfold in stunningly dreadful ways. If horror isn't your thing, you might want to skip this film altogether, and perhaps even the trailer above.
The logline for Final Destination: Bloodlines states: “Haunted by a recurring violent nightmare, a college student returns home to find the one person capable of breaking the cycle and saving her family from the terrible fate that awaits them.”
To set the tone, here’s another trailer for the film:
Initial reviews for Final Destination: Bloodlines have been quite favorable. The Hollywood Reporter mentions that the film “offers its audience exactly what they expect — a series of cleverly designed, wickedly inventive Rube Goldberg-style deaths that are mostly plausible enough to make you walk very cautiously after leaving the cinema.”
IndieWire describes this sixth installment as “the most visually stunning, emotionally engaging, and sharp-witted Final Destination yet.”
Screen Rant suggests that Final Destination: Bloodlines “may turn out to be one of the year's biggest surprises,” noting Santa Juana as “a fantastic lead” who could become “a staple in horror for the foreseeable future.”
They further commented: “Shot for IMAX, well-cast, and ultimately well-executed, Final Destination: Bloodlines is a spectacle, a thrilling ride, and easily the most humorous entry in the franchise.”

Steven Soderbergh expresses concern that the underwhelming performance of mid-budget films at the box office is detrimental to the film industry.
After the domestic box office failure of Steven Soderbergh's Black Bag despite positive critical acclaim, the director reflected on the film's reception in an interview with The Independent. He indicated that the lackluster response is a troubling sign for Hollywood at large. “This is the type of film that defined my career,” he remarked. “If a mid-range budget, star-driven film cannot attract an audience over the age of 25 to theaters — if that’s genuinely a dead zone — then it is not a good sign for films. What will happen to aspiring filmmakers who want to create this type of work?”
