ROTTEN TOMATOES: New Line Readies a Third (Final?) "Destination"

New Line Readies a Third (Final?) "Destination"

by Scott Weinberg | March 22, 2005

The horror fans knew it was just a matter of time -- and they were right. "Cheating Death: Final Destination 3" is set to start production in just a few weeks in Vancouver, and Variety brings us the first bit of casting news: Ryan Merriman ("The Ring Two," "Halloween: Resurrection" Wink

and Mary Winstead (also of "The Ring Two," as well as TV's "Wolf Lake" Wink

have signed on for the third "Destination." Returning from the original installment is the writing / directing team of Glen Morgan & James Wong, the genre filmmakers who combined to deliver "Willard," "The One," and several solid episodes of "The X-Files." As has been reported at various horror outlets, "Final Destination 3" will allegedly open with a horrific roller coaster crash -- and we all know what happens to those who avoid the deadly trip...

All I can say is, "It's about time!" I mean, so many questions were left unanswered after the first two....

Hehehee. They're both guilty-pleasure fun, tho. I actually enjoyed the sequel more than the original.

The first one was the best of the two, but the 2nd one have the best beginning, the freeway sequence was just amazing....just think now, a freaking roller coaster.

i didnt like the first cause they didnt go far enough with the deaths. the second one was a laugh riot which i enjoyed greatly. hopefully they'll film it in 3-d like they said they were going to do in earlier interviews and such.

I don't think these movies qualify as "horror movies", but anyway I agree: they're great fun. I don't know how do they come up with these horrible death sequences out of everyday situations or tools that we use in daily life. You gotta compliment their imagination...

Glenn Morgan and James Wong are talkented guys. I loved the work they did on The X Files, and I thought the first Final Destination was a good first effort on their part.
I wonder what made them want to do the third installment, instead of doing something original. I'm thinking probably money.

It sounds bad, but I just enjoy watching the new ways they come up with killing people. Final Destination 3 should be fun to see.
