Final Destination 3
I'll admit I was hard on Final Destination 2, but I think 3 is a much better watch. It feels more like a "real movie" with respect to the actual production. 686
Sure, the plot is a lite version of the first film, but because we are in the sweet spot where the "Final Destination movie" tropes have been established but not yet done to death, they are able to deliver inventive and elaborate kill scenes that can still shock. Getting rid of any actual ties to the original means we're also rooting for the killer now yet I think they actually still care about having real characters instead of stock archetypes.
My memory is that this one was my favorite and that 4 is pretty dreadful. Looking forward to reassessing. 387
