2 Sick Easter Eggs in Final Destination Bloodlines Trailer

by

Prepare all you horror enthusiasts, as the latest installment of the Final Destination series is approaching! The sneak peek for Bloodlines has subtly included two gory nods to its predecessors.

In the upcoming installment of the Final Destination series, titled Bloodlines, the story revolves around a family who are plagued by the lethal consequences of their grandmother’s prophetic vision from long ago.

As you might expect, the story follows a pattern where each member of the family meets an untimely end due to intricate mishaps. The preview suggests this could involve a tragic lawnmower accident at a family barbecue – and that seems fitting!

If you’re deeply into the series, you may have found it striking how much two of those character deaths resemble some from the franchise.

Bloodlines trailer calls back to two Final Destination deaths

To put it simply, the initial death scene in the trailer occurs during a barbecue. A chain of unfortunate events culminates into a horrifying finale (which can also be referred to as a lawnmower decapitating a man), and surprisingly, the grill itself ignites following a small gas leak.

If you recall Final Destination 2, you’ll likely remember a dramatic ending: In the climax of the 2003 sequel, the character Brian was peacefully grilling when he was suddenly and fatally blown up just before the end of the film.

Much like the other movies in the franchise, it makes for a memorable last-minute kill.

However, let me add this: Towards the conclusion of the Bloodlines trailer, a figure strides onto the street to express his skepticism about the premonition concept. Suddenly and unexpectedly, a delivery vehicle hits him as it travels down the road. Does this scenario seem familiar to you?

Absolutely, that’s correct. It’s a reenactment of the iconic death from the Final Destination series, specifically Terry’s death from the initial film.

Notably, Terry intervened in an altercation between Alex and Carter, moving outside onto the street and declaring, “If you choose to squander your life by attacking Alex every chance you get, then you might as well perish.” Unfortunately, this statement was followed by a bus and a most surprising demise.

Tony Todd makes his final appearance in Bloodlines trailer

In the latest preview, there’s more than just devastation sparking conversation. The presence of actor Tony Todd is confirmed, indicating that he will appear in a film which is believed to mark his last screen performance prior to his passing in 2024.

I’m thrilled to see Todd stepping back into the boots of William Bludworth, the notorious mortician from the Final Destination series, who graced us in installments one, two, and five. (Notably, he also lent his voice to the roller-coaster in the third sequel.)

In November 2024, Todd sadly died, leaving behind a legacy that earned him the title of a legend within the horror genre by both fans and colleagues. Notably, he gained recognition not only for his role in Final Destination but also for portraying Daniel Robitaille, the character from Candyman.

Final Destination: Bloodlines will be released on May 14, 2025.
