Sarah had never seen a single Final Destination film. Sean cleared the schedule to get these reviews done.

Will Sarah remain unimpressed by Sean's choice of film?

Discussion Points:

-Sean nearly gets killed by a bookcase.

-Sarah was surprised by how good this film was.

-The origin of the film's premise.

-Sean tries not to spoil any of the upcoming sequels for Sarah.

-How well-written the characters are in this film.

-Sean apologises for his use of the word 're-writed'.

-The brilliant practical effects.

-Sarah enjoyed the lingering deaths, as opposed to the 'blink and miss it' deaths seen in Alien Romulus.

-The depiction of survivors guilt.

-Sarah talks about looking into a bus driver's eyes.

Raised Questions:

-Where's the Woo-Woo Sarah?

-Should you set off Party Poppers during a podcast episode?

-Do you enjoy teen-focused horror films?

-Does this film feel like an extended, early season episode of Buffy for you?

-Does death have a design for us all?

-How did this avoid being another sh*tty teen-angst horror film?

-Did the Final Destination series ever drop the ball?

*-James Wan did the Saw films, not James Wong.
