Final Destination 2

''Final Destination 2'' is a 2003 American supernatural horror film directed by David R. Ellis. The screenplay was written by J. Mackye Gruber and Eric Bress, based on a story by Gruber, Bress, and series creator Jeffrey Reddick. It is the sequel to the 2000 film ''Final Destination'' and the second installment of the ''Final Destination'' film series. The film stars Ali Larter, A. J. Cook, and Michael Landes.

After the financial success of ''Final Destination'', New Line Cinema contacted Reddick regarding plans for a sequel. Since the original film's crew was unavailable, New Line replaced most of the production team. Filming took place in Vancouver and Okanagan Lake. ''Final Destination 2'' was released on January 31, 2003, and on DVD on July 22, 2003, which includes commentaries, deleted scenes, documentaries, and videos.

The film received negative reviews from critics. Negative reviews assessed the film as a "silly and illogical" work that "begins with the same flawed premise" of its predecessor, while positive reviews called the film "a real jolter for horror fans" that "recognizes the close relationship between fright and laughter" and "surprisingly good fun for the current crop of horror films". The film grossed $46million domestically and $43million overseas, earning $90million internationally, making it the lowest-grossing film in the ''Final Destination'' franchise. It was also nominated for four awards, including the Saturn Award for Best Horror Film. A third film, ''Final Destination 3'', was released in February 2006.

Plot

One year after the explosion of Flight 180, college student Kimberly Corman departs with her friends to Daytona for spring break, while en route, Kimberly grows uncomfortable when they enter a highway with several other vehicles; these include lottery winner Evan Lewis, Nora Carpenter and her teenaged son Tim, teacher Eugene Dix, slacker Rory Peters, pregnant Isabella Hudson, business woman Kat Jennings and Officer Thomas Burke. After a log truck loses its load onto the highway, a chain of events lead to the deaths of everyone including Kimberly, who wakes up still on the onramp to the highway, she panics and blocks the onramp, preventing everyone from getting onto the highway. As Burke asks Kimberly what's happening, the accident occurs, sparing everyone except Kimberly's friends who are killed as Burke tackles Kimberly out of the way of an oncoming truck. The group is mostly aware of Flight 180 but none believe the stories of death hunting them down. That afternoon, Evan returns to his apartment, but a fire breaks out and in his escape, his eye is impaled by a fire escape ladder. The following day, Kimberly visits Clear who seems startled that Evan died last in her vision instead of first. Clear refuses to help, so Kim turns to Burke who go to find Nora and Tim who had gone to a dentist's appointment. After a scare in the office, Tim recklessly startles some pigeons as they are calling out, the pigeons cause a crane operator to drop a sheet of plate glass on top of him, crushing him. Clear offers to help and the two of them visit Bloodworth the mortician who hints that new life can invalidate Death's list, forcing it to start anew, hinting at Isabella's unborn baby. The group meets up at Burke's apartment to explain everything. Nora, accepting her time may come leaves with Eugene who refuses to believe and they board an elevator. Rory sees a sign of a man with hooks, and Burke calls to warn Nora who becomes entangled in the basket of prosthetic limbs another man in the elevator is carrying. She gets caught in the elevator door and is lifted up until she is decapitated. Eugene tries to take control of the situation and tries to use Burke's gun to kill himself, but all six bullets misfire. They get word that Isabella; who had been in custody, is going into labor and they go to meet at the hospital. On the way, the group realizes they've all cheated death before; having been prevented by the delayed deaths of the original survivors of flight 180, connecting them all as Death is trying to clean the slate. They nearly crash into Isabella's van and Kat's truck is thrown into a farmer's field, pinning her in the driver's seat and injuring Eugene. As Eugene is rushed to the hospital, Rory saves the life of Brian; a resident who is nearly hit by a news van. Kat is killed when the operator of the jaws of life accidentally sets off her airbag, sending her head into PVC piping sticking through her headrest. Her hand drops her cigarette that ignites the gasoline leaking from the nearby news van, which explodes and trisects Rory with barbed wire thrown by the explosion.

At the hospital, Isabella has her baby, but Kimberly realizes that visions she's been having of someone drowning was actually herself and that Isabella was never meant to die in the pileup. She is unable to warn Clear who runs to the room Eugene is in, which causes a massive explosion, killing them both and Kimberly saves Burke from the debris. She then takes an ambulance, hoping that being revived after she died would be considered new life. This works and she and Burke survive. Sometime later, Brian and his parents have Burke and Kimberly over to their house for a barbecue, and Brian's father tells them about the news van that nearly killed Brian but Rory had saved his life. As they realize what this means, the barbecue explodes, killing Brian. Much to his mother's horror.

Cast

Production

Development

The first film, ''Final Destination'', was conceived by writers Jeffrey Reddick, James Wong, and Glen Morgan from ''Flight 180'', a spec script intended for use in ''The X-Files''. The film premiered across the United States and Canada on March 17, 2000, grossing $10,015,822 on its opening weekend and an overall gross of $112,880,294 internationally. The film's success inspired New Line Cinema then-President of Production Toby Emmerich to approach Reddick for a sequel, to which he responded positively. Reddick asserted that he "wanted to expand on the mythology and not just tell the same story over again." Unfortunately, Wong and Morgan weren't available for production since they had already signed on their respective projects ''The One'' and '' Willard''. Instead, New Line hired second unit director and stunt coordinator David R. Ellis as director and writing partners Eric Bress and J. Mackye Gruber as co-writers.

"Second unit is like an extension of directing, you're doing big action sequences on film and it was just something I was going after. Once I got the offer from New Line and we got a good script, it was kind of a natural transition," Ellis professed. "I wanted our film to be able to stand alone but I watched ''Final Destination'' to see what they did that was so successful. I tried to use some of that while trying to keep a stand-alone feel for our movie. I kind of took what worked and tried to improve on it," Ellis added. "We wanted to take what the first film did effectively, and add levels and layers that would come out through the characters. When we first started writing this, we were trying to think, 'How can we make Death just a total badass?' and to be perfectly honest, the first crack we ever took at this script had to be reined in!" Bress uncovered. On the other hand, producers Craig Perry and Warren Zide from Zide/Perry Productions also returned and helped on financing the film, with Perry stating, "We could have made no other movies and the first one still would have been a satisfying experience. But when we were given the opportunity to make a sequel, we jumped at it."

Casting

One of the prior film's main characters, Alex Browning (Devon Sawa), was killed off-screen in the film. Rumors indicated that Sawa had a contract dispute with New Line concerning the deduction of his salary; however, Perry resolved the issue with the statement that "it had everything to do with narrative, and nothing to do with money or Devon's unwillingness to come back." Despite this, New Line reinstated Ali Larter to reprise her character as Clear Rivers. "When New Line asked me to come back, I thought it was great. They showed me the script and let me have some input, and it was really terrific," Larter revealed. Larter indicated that Clear " asgotten to a hardened place and tucked herself inside because she has felt so much pain in her life. By having herself committed to a mental hospital, she has created a safehouse so that Death can't get her." Tony Todd also resumed his character as mortician William Bludworth. "It's the same character that we saw before that the audience loved," Ellis expressed.

The role of Kimberly Corman was given to Canadian actress A. J. Cook, who previously starred in the 1999 film ''The Virgin Suicides''. Cook described her role as "a very strong girl, very determined because her mother died a year earlier, right in front of her eyes, so she had to grow up quick." Ellis described her role as "a girl who can have some fun cause they're going on a trip and they're gonna have a good time, yet someone who can stand up to Clear, to come and challenge Clear on a race, and to bother with Clear." Cook added that "it's rare to find one strong female lead in a horror film, not to mention two arter" Ellis and Perry were amazed by her sensitivity and vulnerability in her performance, and she was hired instantly. " ewere at the beginning of what's going to be a long successful career for her," Perry cited.

Michael Landes, who appeared in the TV series '' Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman'', was cast as Thomas Burke. Landes defined him as "a real nice, decent guy who comes across this huge car accident ndwho is very intrigued to begin with" and as "the guy who bumps into the girl and he goes nuts as her protector." Ellis pointed out that he "just wanted to find someone who's young and who can relate to these kids. It wasn't an older guy, but still strong enough and yet sensitive. andesbrought this really good balance to his part." Landes was cast a day after his audition, which caused flight schedule problems on his departure two days after and cancellation of his appointments.

Former ''Living Single'' star Terrence C. Carson was hired as Eugene Dix. Carson identified his role as "a very by-the-book type of person but soon has a change of heart as the corpses begin to pile up." The crew was enticed of Carson's casting, with Bress mentioning how his "originally envisioned Woody Allen-type of character has got ten more times life than it ever had. It's got ten times the personality, this charisma that T.C. brings to it...he's just such a great presence." Similarly, Perry was astonished by how Carson "can take the most absurd lines and deliver them in such grammatized form with his eyes and his deep rich speaking voice." Jonathan Cherry, who recently emerged in the 2003 film '' House of the Dead'', was appointed as Rory Peters. Cherry characterized Rory as "a very opposite of me whose arc goes from, 'I don't really care at all', to 'Oh my God, this is really happening!'"

In the script, Bress said that Rory was his favorite character to write since "he's great comic relief, he's got a drug problem, he's funny, and he's all that." Bress bragged that "Cherry is awesome, awesome casting cause he's just so funny and the way he delivers his lines. It's like 'Oh yeah. That's good! That's better!'" "What I think was surprising on him was that from all of the humor he's involved and his sort of itchiness that he has with Kat, there is some moments where he reveals how vulnerable he really is and so the shield comes down and right in there you're really becoming sympathetic to Rory. You like him at first cause he's the funny guy, but then you care about him because you realize that there's a place that humor comes from that we all share," Perry appended.

'' Blackwoods'' actress Keegan Connor Tracy played Kat Jennings. Tracy claimed that " atdoesn't really buy it at first, but pretty soon even her cynical attitude can't ignore the truth of the situation they're all in." Perry defined the role as "someone who is really so self-absorbed that without being overly malicious is incredibly rude and insensitive to the feelings of all those around her." Her casting was assessed by Perry as "full of energy" and "embodies the self-aware nervous energy of Kat. racycreated a character that you kind of dislike intensely but you don't dislike so much that you don't understand why she is the way she is." Rounding up the cast are Lynda Boyd (Rachel Todd in ''You, Me and the Kids'') as widow Nora Carpenter and James Kirk (Kyle Morgan in '' Once Upon a Christmas'') as her son Tim Carpenter, David Paetkau (Hunter Kerrigan in ''Just Deal'') as gambler Evan Lewis, Justina Machado (Vanessa Diaz in '' Six Feet Under'') as pregnant Isabella Hudson, and Noel Fisher (Todd Tolanski of '' X-Men: Evolution'') as farmer Brian Gibbons. Novice actors Sarah Carter, Alejandro Rae, and Shaun Sipos were hired as Kimberly's friends Shaina McKlank, Dano Estevez, and Frankie Whitman correspondingly. Andrew Airlie portrayed Kimberly's father Michael Corman, while Enid-Raye Adams appeared as Dr. Ellen Kalarjian.

Filming

Like the first film, the film was shot in and around Vancouver Island. "We know the area, we know the people up there and let's be honest, there's an enormous economic incentive to shoot there. We were very fortunate to get nit production managerJustis Greene, who's been working as a line producer up there for 30 years and who was able to get us the best crew working in town right now. It was advantageous to us on so many levels, that it was just the right place to go for this movie," Perry stated as the reason for the film's production in British Columbia. British Columbia Highway 19 was utilized as Route 23. The Plaza of Nations was used as a stand-in for Ellis Medical Complex, the site of Tim's death.

The farm and lake scenes were filmed in Campbell River and Okanagan Lake respectively, though it is depicted in Greenwood Lake, New York. "We shot part of it at the lake where it was 37° cold, which is beyond an ice cream headache. And the second stuff we shot in a big huge tank where we filmed all the underwater sequence, that was in a 93° pool," Landes clarified. Cook and Landes performed their own stunts in both sequences. "My biggest fear is being trapped in a car underwater. So it was kind of cool to face my fear and all that," Cook divulged. "We took a couple of lessons with a scuba guide to be comfortable being underwater and breathing off the regulator," Landes enunciated.

To avoid confusion with Larter and Carter, Cook was required to dye her hair brown for the role. "I like being a chameleon. It opens you up for so much more in this work. You don't get typecast," Cook professed. Landes also denied plots regarding Thomas and Kimberly's relationship. "It's kind of a protected relationship, more like a brother/sister thing than a love interest. They didn't want to go there, I guess. They did go that way in an earlier draft of the script but they didn't want it to seem like the cop is like lascivious or something. So what they have now, hopefully, is a little bit of chemistry and you get the idea that through tragedy something good will come. So it ends in an optimistic way, that maybe they can be together but there's no real love story," Landes articulated.

Effects

Digital Dimension took charge of the visual effects of the film. CG supervisor Jason Crosby pointed out that their studio was mainly selected for the highway sequence after the crew realized real logs only bounced about an inch off the road when dropped from a logging truck. "They were concerned about how they would make the shot happen, not knowing if CG would work. The timing was great because we had just finished a test shot of our CG logs bouncing on the freeway. We sent a tape to Vancouver and after seeing it the crew was convinced that any of the log shots could be done with CG," Crosby indicated. "It began with R&D on the log dynamics. Scripts were written to help manage the dynamic simulations with real world numbers for gravity, density, etc. The results were remarkably similar to the original logs shot in Vancouver, a testament to the accuracy of the software and the data we had collected, however the logs still lacked the 'jumping through windshields killer instinct' we were looking for. By tweaking the parameters, we coaxed the logs into a much livelier role."

Senior technical director James Coulter added creative 3D tracking on shots with fast pans, motion blur, and filters such as dust, mist, slabs of bark, broken chains, and other debris. Digital artist Edmund Kozin manipulated high resolution photos which were carefully stitched together to achieve realistic texture amongst the 22 CG logs of the film. Hair shaders were also used for splintering and frayed wood looks for the logs. Physics such as speed and height of the logging truck, length and width of the logs, type of wood and density of a Douglas-fir were also considered.

In spite of this, there are no CG cars incorporated in the actual film. "It was a possibility in the beginning so we did some dynamics tests using the logs as rigid bodies to hit cars with soft body deformers on them, but when they were done shooting they didn't end up needing any CG cars," Crosby avowed. Lifecasts of the actors were also used for all of the death scenes, including the highway setting. Landes experienced claustrophobia during the procedure. Fake blood was also used, but CG blood was also shown.

Music

Soundtrack

Like its predecessor, no official album accompanied the motion picture; however, there are ten songs featured in the film itself and two music videos embedded in its subsequent home release. Two singles of The Sounds, ''Dance with Me'' and ''Rock 'n Roll'', were promoted on Kimberly's car stereo. Besides these, the music video of ''Seven Days a Week'' accompanied the film's DVD. ''Middle of Nowhere'' by The Blank Theory was both heard on Evan's car radio and inserted in the DVD along with its music video. ''Rocky Mountain High'' by John Denver was covered twice in the end credits by Pete Snell and Jude Christodal. Christodal also performed ''My Name is Death'' during Brian's death and the end credits. Other songs integrated were ''Highway to Hell'' by AC/DC (on Kimberly's car AV), ''Jon F. Hennessy'' by FT (on Rory's vehicle audio), ''Vitamin'' by Incubus (during Evan's house fire) and ''I Got You'' by (hed) Planet Earth (during Rory's party).

Score

''Final Destination 2: Original Motion Picture Score'' was the promotional film score conducted by Daytime Emmy-winning composer Shirley Walker. Though it was not officially released, it was made available alongside '' Willard: The Original Motion Picture Score'' on September 30, 2003.

The score received positive reviews among commentators. Robert Koehler of ''Variety'' applauded that "Shirley Walker's score displays a thorough understanding of horror jolts." Pete Roberts of ''DVDActive'' admired the score as "top notch." Anthony Horan of ''DVD.net Australia'' told readers to "crank up the volume and prepare for a sonic feast". Nonetheless, Chris Carle of ''IGN Movies'' noted that "while the score is nothing you'll remember, it gets the job done."

Reception

Critical response

On Rotten Tomatoes the film has an approval rating of 48% based on 111 reviews, with an average rating of 5/10. The site's critics consensus reads: "This sequel is little more than an excuse to stage elaborate, gory scenes of characters getting killed off." On Metacritic, it has a weighted average score of 38 out of 100 based on 25 critics, indicating "generally unfavorable reviews". In 2010, Nick Hyman of ''Metacritic'' included ''Final Destination 2'' in the website's editorial ''15 Movies the Critics Got Wrong'', denoting that "the elaborate suspense/action set pieces from the first two films are more impressive than most". Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "B+" on an A+ to F scale.

Negative evaluations condemned the film's plot, acting, and screenplay. Roger Ebert of ''Chicago Sun-Times'' wrote that "perhaps movies are like history, and repeat themselves, first as tragedy, then as farce". James Berardinelli of ''ReelViews'' stressed that "the movie mandates complete gullibility and vacuous attention in order to work on any level". Claudia Puig of ''USA Today'' complained that "there is an audience for a movie in which innocent people suffer hideous accidental deaths is troubling enough, but a group of creative people chose to direct their energies on this repulsive spectacle hichsimply provokes disgust". Justine Elias of ''The Village Voice'' asserted that "this risible thriller is merely a sadistic series of misread premonitions and vile murders". David Grove of ''Film Threat'' stated that " ewasn't much scared by anything in ''Final Destination 2'' which is silly and illogical". Jeff Vice of ''Deseret News'' censured to "not even get into the awful script or the numbingly awful performances", while Bruce Fretts of ''Entertainment Weekly'' stated "everything else about the film is also deadly".

Some critics praised the film's comedic theme. A. O. Scott of ''The New York Times'' imparted "it's not as cheekily knowing as the '' Scream movies'' or as trashily Grand Guignol as the '' Evil Dead franchise'', but like those pictures it recognizes the close relationship between fright and laughter, and dispenses both with a free, unpretentious hand". C. W. Nevius of ''San Francisco Chronicle'' conveyed its "funnier than the original". Maitland McDonagh of ''TV Guide'' pronounced "if this is your idea of fun, step right up". William Arnold of ''Seattle Post-Intelligencer'' found it as "a series of Grand Guignol skits played for mean-spirited laughs". Marc Savlov of ''Austin Chronicle'' admired how "it is surprisingly good fun for the current crop of horror films, reasonably well-plotted and full of jaw-dropping, white-knuckle scares. That said, it's most definitely not for the squeamish nor the easily offended." Nev Pierce of ''BBC'' saw that "it's simple, but effective", whereas Sheila Norman-Culp of ''The Atlanta Journal-Constitution'' proclaimed that "what ''Final Destination'' did for the fear of flying, ''Final Destination 2'' does for the fear of driving".

Amongst the cast ensemble, Carson, Cherry, Cook, Landes, Larter, and Todd were prominent amidst the analysis for their performances as Eugene, Rory, Kimberly, Thomas, Clear, and Bludworth respectively. Koehler of ''Variety'' said that "Carson as skeptical Eugene energizes what had been a rote conception on the page"; "Cherry offered some dry comic balance"; Larter was "casted little light"; Todd was squandered by his "single, distinctly flat scene"; and "the generally awful thesping, led by Cook, whose blurry grasp of emotions betrays Ellis' apparent disinterest in his actors". Grove of ''Film Threat'' panned Cook, uttering that "she's no great actress, but she's a real looker" and teased that "since when did a horror movie suffer from having two dumb blondes as leads", the other actress being Larter, who "spends the whole movie looking miserable with her frigid acting". Dustin Putman of ''TheMovieBoy.com'' commented how "Cook is serviceable as the premonition-fueled Kimberly, but doesn't evoke enough emotion in the scenes following the brutal deaths of her close friends." Robin Clifford of ''Reeling Reviews'' stated that "Cook was strident as the catalyst that sparks events with her premonitions of disaster and her fervent desire to cheat the Reaper" whereas Larter was "giving the smart-ass edge her character needs", while Brett Gallman of ''Oh, The Horror!'' claimed that Larter "is again the bright spot", along with Cook and Landes who were "serviceable as leads" and Todd "whose purpose has still yet to be revealed in the franchise".

In January 2022, Stephen Rosenberg of MovieWeb ranked the franchise's films from worst to best. Rosenberg highlighted ''Final Destination 2'' as the best installment of the franchise, citing the opening sequence as, "memorable in the entire horror genre, let alone the franchise" and praised Todd's performance.

Accolades

Like its predecessor, the film was nominated for the Saturn Award for Best Horror Film in 2004, as well as Choice Movie - Horror/Thriller in the 2003 Teen Choice Awards; likewise, the awards lost to ''28 Days Later'' and '' The Ring'', respectively. In the 4th Golden Trailer Awards, it was voted for the Golden Fleece, but lost to the surfer film ''Blue Crush''. Furthermore, the ''Collision on Highway 23'' was nominated for Best Action Sequence at the MTV Movie Awards in 2003, but lost it to the ''Battle for Helm's Deep'' of the fantasy film '' The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers'', another New Line film.

The highway scene was regarded by Grove of ''Film Threat'' as "a monument to smashed cars, flying objects and scorched metal" and Garth Franklin of ''Dark Horizons'' as "utterly spectacular." Anne Billson of ''Guardian.co.uk'' exclaimed it as "one of the most terrifying sequences I've ever seen, all the more effective for being grounded in reality; few drivers haven't felt that anxious twinge as the badly secured load on the lorry in front of them starts to wobble."

The Route 23 pile-up scene was number 1 in the lists of best car crashes or disaster scenes by ''Screen Junkies'', ''Made Man'', ''Unreality Magazine'', ''All Left Turns'', ''Chillopedia'', ''Filmstalker'', ''io9'', ''UGO Entertainment'', ''Filmcritic.com'', and ''New York Magazine''. ''Filmsite'' enlisted all fatalities in its ''Best Film Deaths Scenes''. The demise of Kirk's character entered these listings of the most shocking deaths on film: George Wales of ''Total Film'' (#28), James Eldred of ''Bullz-Eye.com'' (#20), and Jeff Otto of ''Bloody Disgusting'' (#9).
