The continuation of 'Final Destination' offers a concept of entertaining deaths

Even if you are not a fan of the popular series in which death catches up with people in a cleverly unpredictable way, you may have a pretty good time with “blood lines”.

Whenever I watch a film “Final Destination”, there are a few minutes in which I wonder whether the wind and a benign household object kill me in a Roben Goldbergian. It was windy for the plate when I left the theater and some metal Was Creak over me.

The extremely unlikely and still “credible” deaths are the most unforgettable in the franchise “Final Destination”.

Who has seen the second film and winced when he approaches a protocol car? If you say you don't do it, lie. These are just facts.

“Final Destination: Bloodlines”, the sixth film in the franchise, offers a variety of such deaths, some clever, some less. This film follows Stefani (Kaitlyn Santa Juana), a student whose sudden nightmares about a disaster of the Hochhoch restaurant in the 1960s destroyed her grades, sleep and her relationship with her roommate, who would totally cheer on death when he came for her.

After an expanded episode of this catastrophe, which is actually so funny -and I want a series of films “Final Destination” over the decades -the film returns to the present and falls into a Rocky setup.

The bones of a good opening are there, but also the unpleasant representation.

Stefani returns to her family house, convinced the woman in her dreams that the alienated mother of her alienated mother and she must have the key to solve her nightmares. Stefani realizes that she accidentally alienated her healthy, loving family – a really great figure that I have never really dissolved – and like all the protagonists in front of her, like all the “final goals” in front of her, in front of her to convince her loved ones of her upcoming fate.

As it is a tradition, she seems to be completely crazy until the people around her start to die.

“Bloodlines” is fun and is easy in the top three of the franchise, with a few particularly clever deaths and a really likeable ensemble. An outstanding role is Richard Harmon, who plays a lovable jerk, oh as good as Santa Juana. And I cannot forget the legendary deceased Tony Todd, whose last moments in the film have brought me to unexpected tears.

If you, like me, have seen every one of the “Final Destination” films (even the fourth for some reason), this is obviously a must.

But even if you are not a fan, you may have a pretty good time.
