10 Horror Movies Where You Know Nearly Everyone Will Die

10. Final Destination (2000)

James Wong's supernatural horror Final Destination arrived at the cusp of the millennium, the first in a new breed of horror franchises that focused on inventive kills over all else, and which promised all the spills and thrills of slashers gone by, but without the great, hulking bad guy to pin it on.

And you can't exactly have a movie called Final Destination and not pay off on the core premise. Going into the film, we know that most, if not all, of the cast need to die. Why? Because the young protagonists who escape their untimely demise in the movie's opening, narrowly avoiding boarding a flight doomed to disaster, have Death on their tail, and he is looking to square his accounts. 

What became something of a curse for the series during its original run - because fans increasingly viewed the films as having essentially no purpose or stakes - was its selling point in the early days. Although Devon Sawa's Alex Browning and Ali Larter's Clear Rivers make it out of this one alive, you could bet your bottom dollar they'd bite the dust in the sequel - though, in the case of Alex, he was killed off-screen, between movies.
