15 Unbelievably Hideous Horror Movie Sequels

9. The Final Destination

The Final Destination series has proved surprisingly consistent over the years and the other four films worked, especially the first and fifth films. This fourth installment did not. At all.

If there's one word to sum up The Final Destination it would be 'lazy'. This is nothing more than a carbon copy of the first three movies which entirely lacks their creativity and doesn't even seem to be trying to thrill the viewers. To make matters worse, it's also performed by one of the worst film casts you'll ever see. There is not a single remotely good performance here.

The death scenes are painfully bland (and ripped-off from all the first three films), the characters are one-dimensional and the film does nothing more than go through the Final Destination formula without ever giving a damn.

With this one, watch the admittedly great opening racetrack disaster, then switch off after that. There's nothing else to be gained here.
