Is this the best of the ridiculously consistent Final Destination franchise? Maybe. The sixth instalment, from Zach Zipovsky and Adam B Stein might be slightly over-long, but is certainly the most elaborate of the series. Horrifying visions of a narrowly-averted disaster at a sky top restaurant in the 1960s prompts Stefani (Kaitlyn Santa Juana) to investigate her family history and discover her entire bloodline are destined for death by terrible freak accidents. What BLOODLINES completely nails s the tone of the FD franchise, arguably as much of a comedy as it is a horror; a live-action, super-gory Tom and Jerry cartoon. That’s not to say it’s without pathos, featuring as it does Tony Todd’s final role filmed as he was terminally ill and confronting his own mortality, but generally you’re given permission to have the time of your life as we watch these doomed characters get offed in ingenious, mischievous fashion. SSP
