DEATH COMES FOR ALL GENERATIONS OF ONE CURSED FAMILY IN LATEST CHAPTER OF GLORIOUSLY GORY HORROR FRANCHISE

- REVIEWS BY DAMON SMITH

DONT FEAR THE REAPER

DEDICATED to the memory of actor Tony Todd - who has portrayed soothsaying mortician William Bludworth in the Final Destination films since the ghoulish franchise took flight 25 years ago - a belated sixth chapter goes back to the beginning to expose the chain of events that set the deadly curse in motion.

Cue a nerve-jangling set piece inside a 494ft tall restaurant tower, which completed construction months ahead of schedule and is clearly signposted as a deathtrap before the gore flows freely.

Johnny Cash’s Ring of Fire trills from a parking valet’s transistor radio and a totemic bad penny is plucked from a watery grave, foreshadowing the domino rally of devastation, evisceration and incineration that has become the series’ trademark.
