Everything Actioncast: Final Destination (2000)
This week on the Everything Actioncast, Zach and Chris dodge Death and talk about Final Destination, which is celebrating its 25th anniversary.
Kicking off a horror franchise that continues this year with Final Destination: Bloodlines in May, the original film stars Devon Sawa as Alex Browning, who has a premonition of the plane his class is traveling to Paris on exploding after take-off and freaks out. He, along with several of his classmates and a teacher, Valerie Lewton (Kristen Cloke) are kicked off the plane but Alex’s vision is proven true. A month later, the survivors begin to die in freak accidents, and Alex and fellow survivor Clear Rivers (Ali Larter) learn that Death itself may be coming after them for avoiding it on the plane. Zach and Chris discuss some of the rules of this movie compared to the others in the series, how everyone seems to hate Sean William Scott, how Death’s only hands-on kill in the franchise is Alex’s friend Tod (Chad Donella), Tony Todd’s first appearance as Bludworth and more.
You can watch Final Destination (and the rest of the series) on Max. Next week, we’re feeling Turtle Power and celebrating the 35th anniversary of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
