Final Destination: Bloodlines, directed by Zack Lipovsky and Adam B. Stein, starring Kaitlyn Santa Juana, Tony Todd, and Teo Briones, follows college student Stefani as a recurring nightmare haunts her. Desperate to seek answers, Stefani soon returns home and begins to uncover the secrets of her family history.
Final Destination: Bloodlines is a scary good time, with unexpected twists at every corner.
The story adds a fresh spin on the modern horror classic while exploring the deep connection between the historical elements of established characters.
The death scenes were exciting and uniquely created. They provide a pace of progression that exposes multiple layers of human experience. Each choice and decision relates to one another while adding complexity to the story.
The score was well done, while the special effects presented a hauntingly realistic nature that drew the audience in deeper.
Elements of comedy created balance, while the cast of relative unknowns delivered a sense of cohesiveness that only the FD franchise can generate.
As a horror icon and industry staple, it was amazing to see our beloved Tony Todd one final time as JB. It was great to see how the franchise paid homage to a decades-long story and character.
Overall, FDB is a 5-star horror film that fans of the franchise will get a kick out of.
