Final Destination . . . oh just kill them all already!

Final Destination movies are a guilty pleasure of mine. Although only the first movie had anything approaching a decent script, all of the sequels have been at least entertaining, which is more than you can say for most horror series. The last movie, called THE Final Destination (a blatant lie) was the first one in 3D and offered the usual inventive deaths, this time with gore popping out at you, along with characters that were less than 2D. Final Destination 5 continues the trend of characters that you just want to see killed nastily, though it is a slight step up from its predecessor. The opening accident is spectacular (if illogical) and the later deaths are squirm-inducing, especially a laser-eye surgery gone wrong and a physics-defying gymnastic accident.
The main twist this time is that, thanks to a tip from coroner Bludworth (Tony Todd, making a welcome return to the series) the characters realise that if they kill someone else they get to cheat death and live as long as the other person would have lived. Of course, the crazy Tom Cruise lookalike is the one that tries to take advantage of this. This results in a rather generic confrontation between him and the last survivors. There is a big twist beyond that, though it's one I saw coming. Without completely giving it away, the true title of the film should be Final Destination 0.
I don't know if I'm up for too many more Final Destinations, but I'll take them over another Hostel or Saw.
