During a 'Final Destination' movie screening in Argentina, a roof collapse injured a woman, echoing the film's theme of escaping death only to face danger again.
A screening of the latest ‘Final Destination’ movie took a scary turn, mimicking a scene straight out of the franchise, when the theater's roof collapsed on viewers in Argentina. The incident occurred on May 19, when the ceiling collapsed during a showing of 'Final Destination: Bloodlines,' at Cinema Ocho in La Plata in Buenos Aires, according to Infobae, an Argentina-based digital news outlet.
'The truth is, we hadn’t planned to go to the movies,' Fiamma Villaverde told the outlet in a translated interview. 'It was my birthday. We were walking and happened upon the theater. Since the tickets were cheaper than the rest of the week, we said, ‘Shall we?’ We went in, bought some popcorn, and went into the theater. The show had just started.' The movie franchise, now in its sixth installment, follows a group of people who narrowly escape death after surviving a mass casualty event, but are then chased down by death and face bizarre, horrific fates.

PATRICK'S DAY PARTY NEAR UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH, DOZENS INJURED Villaverde, along with her 11-year-old daughter and a friend, said near the end of the movie, they heard a loud crash. 'There was a really loud noise. At first, we thought it was part of the movie because we were so absorbed, but then a huge piece fell on me,' Villaverde shared.

He asked, ‘How do you want to fix this?’ I got angry: ‘How do I want to fix this? I’m going to file a complaint. Just imagine if they hit my daughter in the head! They’re irresponsible!'' Videos and images circulating on social media show a hole in the ceiling of the theater and pieces of debris spread all over the floor.
