50 Movies Where Evil Won

Plot: In each instalment, someone has a premonition of a disaster and manages to save themselves and several others, but Death itself then comes for those who cheated it and kills them in a series of bizarre freak accidents.

Final Destination, which just returned in the most triumphant of ways with the genuinely great Final Destination: Bloodlines, stands as arguably one of horror's best, most consistent franchises. Having said this, they do need to shake up the endings a bit. 

2003's Final Destination 2 does have a happy ending, with visionary Kimberly Corman (A.J. Cook) and fellow survivor Thomas Burke (Michael Landes) surviving after Kimberly drowns herself and is then brought back to life at a nearby hospital, thus ruining Death's design. None of the other groups of survivors have made it, though, with all of them eventually dying. As Iris Campbell (Gabrielle Rose) says in Bloodlines, "Death is a relentless son of a b***h." 

In the third picture, it wasn't directly confirmed that the final three died, and it'd be nice to think that those characters are still out there somewhere, but otherwise, Death has unambiguously won every other time. Final Destination 5 got away with it by having that insane prequel twist, but the downer endings with Death winning are otherwise getting a bit repetitive - this was by far the worst thing in Bloodlines, for example. 

Sometimes, the good guys should be allowed to win, too.
