"I'll See You Soon." One of the best films of the new year

Rating: 7/10 (30 July 2000)

James Wong's Final Destination is a weird yet immensly entertaining horror film that has plenty of scares and a cool twist- the killer isn't some guy in a mask or a guy in a dress. It's death, literally, coming for you. The plot (spoilers I think) involves a kid who is going on a trip to Paris and on a TWA flight (I think this is a odd coincidence to TWA flight 800 plane that crashed in the summer of 1996). But, the kid has a revelation before the flight begins that the plane is going to crash. He gets off, and so do a few other kids in the comotion. Two minutes later after the plane takes off, the plane crashes (talk about a messed up revelation). But it gets better after that with the death. Very clever, sometimes even funny, and always frightening, I think (unless nothing else comes along this year) this might be the best horror film of the year and definately one of the best teen slasher movies to come around in a while. Best part- the mortician Tony Todd telling the kids that death is one mother****er you shouldn't mess with. Reccomended. A+
