This death may not be the goriest but it's definitely the saddest.
The Final Destination franchise might be in the horror genre, but despite that, audiences watch the films with a sense of fun. That catharsis horror is known for, where we can deal with our anxieties by laughing at or even enjoying the most frightening things on screen is never more evident than in these films. It's sometimes hard not to laugh at the absurd ways the creators of these movies come up with to kill their characters.
Final Destination 5 follows Sam , his ex-girlfriend Molly , and a group of friends who survived a brilliantly shot bridge collapse scene in the first act. As these movies always go, the ones who escaped death, in the beginning, are then stalked by it as the grim reaper looks to collect the ones who got away. The Final Destination movies are almost slasher films where the killer is not a man in a mask but the unfathomable afterlife itself.
Final Destination was bookended by an intriguing first and final act. The beginning sees a high school class boarding a plane set to fly to Paris. We follow these kids, led by Devon Sawa's Alex, as shockingly, minutes into the film, everyone dies when the plane blows up. Of course, it's just Alex having a premonition, and when he snaps out of it, he and a few other students get off the plane.
Two weeks later, Sam and Molly board a plane to Paris, where they are moving because Sam is due to start a culinary apprenticeship in the French city. Wait, they're on a plane to France? If you've seen the other films, you immediately start to get uncomfortable. As Sam is putting his stuff in an overhead compartment, he hears a commotion and looks up. Some teenagers are being removed from the plane. These aren't just any teens though. These are the characters from the first film.
