Final Destination Bloodlines

” excelled where its other sequels fell short. That’s because the 2000 “صند

Final


Destination

” was such a success. It was a unique entrée into the horror genre.

The succeeding sequels failed miserably. Even the appearance of


Tony Todd


(William Bludworth) could not save those. Fourteen years later “Final Destination Bloodlines” hits the mark.

Had it not been for the gratuitous sickening, and disgusting bloodletting, its blood type would be A positive.

Kudos to the “Bloodlines” film crew. It is directed by

Adam Stein

and

Zach Lipovsky

, with the story by

Jon Watts

,

Guy Busick

In “Bloodlines,” the late Tony Todd has a backstory. Todd, who has become a “national treasure,” received thunderous applause when he appeared on the screen for the first time.

The film is titled “In Memory of Tony Todd.” Bludworth serves as a recurring element woven through the entire series. Acting as both a mortician and someone who has evaded death, Bludworth offers understanding about how these phenomena function.

Todd is a formidable presence both in front of and behind the camera. Over two decades have passed since I had lunch with Tony to talk about his part in “صند

Candyman

.” This particular meeting remains prominent in my memory for numerous reasons.

She returns home to find the one individual who could potentially disrupt a brutal, lethal pattern that has devastated her family in “Bloodlines.” Despite not fully compensating for the unbearable, graphic, bloody sequences viewers must endure, audiences still get to listen to Todd’s final thoughts on life: “Life is precious. Savor each moment. You never know when—.”
