It was way back in 2011 when the last Final Destination movie was released, but the franchise returns this summer with Final Destination Bloodlines.
According to Warner Bros. and New Line, this sixth instalment "takes audiences back to the very beginning of Death's twisted sense of justice." In today's newly released teaser trailer, we find a tattoo artist surrounded by a series of chain reactions which culminate with his grisly demise. That involves fire, a ceiling fan, and a pretty horrific use of his piercings.
While this is more like an extended clip than a traditional trailer, it promises the sort of death and gore fans of these movies have loved since the series launched in 2000.
Whether Final Destination Bloodlines can successfully relaunch the long-running horror property remains to be seen, though there's certainly a lot of excitement among fans for this movie on social media.
Plot details are few are far between, though we have learned today that, plagued by a violent recurring nightmare, college student Stefanie heads home to track down the one person who might be able to break the cycle and save her family from the grisly demise that inevitably awaits them all.
