Pictures and New Line Cinema announced that Guy Busick would collaborate on the script with Taylor, while Jon Watts joined as a producer. He said psychologists have confirmed one reason some people are afraid of riding a roller coaster is because they have no control over it and what happens to them.

Zenescope later released a five issue miniseries, titled Final Destination: Spring Break, which involves a group led by Carly Hagan being stalked by Death after surviving a hotel fire and becoming stranded in Cancún, Mexico.Score mixer Bobby Fernandez created a "gore-o-meter", measuring the violence of each death to ensure the score would match the scenes. This time the survivors are told that only "new life" can defeat Death, and they must stay alive long enough for Isabella to have her baby. We've listed all the Final Destination DVDs and blu-rays below, too, in case you want to see the titles a bit more clearly.

However, an ominous figure (Tony Todd) eventually emerges and offers a macabre suggestion for survival.

However, it may vaguely apply to the next 3 films in the way that the subsequent events are all possibly byproducts of a ripple-effect created by the survivors of Flight 180.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. In the franchise's films, Brinkema says, "one must closely read to survive (for a spell), and yet reading changes absolutely nothing at all". The score for Final Destination 3 was composed by Shirley Walker, who wrote the soundtracks of the series' previous installments. Knowing that he is actually next, he and George go the hospital he is at, only to witness him being crushed by a bathtub.After Candice and Isaac die in bizarre accidents, Sam is warned that Death is still after the survivors and told that if he wants to live he must kill someone who was never meant to die on the bridge, and claim their remaining lifespan. Peter continues to pursue Molly since she witnessed Block's murder, but is killed by Sam when stabs him with a meat skewer. The characters' deaths are brought about by "a series of neutral gestures, a set of constraints that will ultimately lead to their conflagratory ends"; these include the placing of a drink, looking through CDs, and an ill-chosen doorstop. The franchise has been praised for its innovative premise of the invisible abstract concept of Death killing people instead of a usual slasher killer, and the creativity of the films' death sequences.

As a further means of promotion, a novelization written by Christa Faust was published by Black Flame a month before the film's release. In The Final Destination, college student Nick O'Bannon ( Bobby Campo) visits the McKinley Speedway for a study break with his friends Lori Milligan ( Shantel VanSanten), Janet Cunningham ( Haley Webb), and Hunt Wynorski ( Nick Zano). She convinces nine people including Kevin, best friends Ashley Freund and Ashlyn Halperin, alumnus Frankie Cheeks, athlete Lewis Romero, and goth couple Ian McKinley and Erin Ulmer, not to ride the roller coaster, but fails to save Jason and Carrie, who are among the remaining passengers killed in the derailment. Three critical theories about the Final Destination franchise have been discussed in scholarly works. Seconds before the coaster takes off, Wendy has a vision of the coaster derailing, killing everyone on board.

He argues that theme park rides and horror cinema are mutually influential; the former draw from the frightening aspects of the latter, while the latter draw from the "theatrics and kinetics" of the former. For the franchise, it's an obvious metaphor for Death; the ultimate fate or "destination" that everyone has. Now convinced that Death is stalking them, Wendy and Kevin set out to save the remaining survivors using omens hidden in photographs of the survivors that Wendy took on the night of the crash. Final Destination films depart further from other horror films, even those aimed at teenagers, in that a family narrative is lacking, and there are no hauntings of any kind.
