Silliness abound

Rating: 3/10 (24 May 2005)

The concept of death stalking a group of people is an interesting idea. It was executed fairly well, and originally in the first Final Destination film. Unfortunately this film seems to take for granted that you've seen the original. It skips some much-needed explanation of death and etc. Even had the film added the explanations it still would have felt old. We've seen it all before. Where the original had endearing characters, here we have shallow and unintresting characters.
The film is rife with musical cues that foreshadow exactly what will happen. When the horror occurs in the movie it feels just plain silly. It seems the filmmakers didn't take themselves seriously. Basically the film is a cheap attempt to cash in on the original. You would be better off having Death stalk you than watching this film.
