Final Destination’s Eric Bress Talks About New Film ‘Ghosts of War’

I’ve long been a fan of the Final Destination franchise, so when I heard that writer/director Eric Bress (Final Destination 2, The Final Destination) had a new movie coming out I was curious, then I saw the trailer for Ghosts of War and I was completely obsessed with getting a copy to review. You’ll be able to read my review now, but let’s just say I loved it! So when I got the chance to interview Bress I was beyond excited, I mean the man helped create one of the best horror franchises ever. Ghosts of War centers on five American soldiers assigned to hold a French mansion serving as an outpost near the end of World War II. Formerly occupied by the Nazi high command, the lives of the soldiers quickly descends into madness when they encounter a supernatural enemy far more terrifying than anything seen on the battlefield.

New ‘Final Destination’ Movie Is Headed Our Way

Final Destination fans have been begging for a new installment for years and they’re finally getting their wish, sort of. THR is reporting that Final Destination is getting a “re-imagining”. New Line Cinema has hired horror writers Patrick Melton and Marcus Dunstan to pen the script. The duo is most recognized for writing four of the Saw films as well as Piranha 3DD. Dunstan is also working on the upcoming Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark film. The first Final Destination debuted in 2000 and was hit, bringing in $122 million. That’s not bad for a film made on a $23 million dollar budget. With non-stop thrills and seriously epic kills, I’m not surprised it made fans happy. There is still a question as to whether or not Tony Todd will be reprising his role, but we’re keeping our fingers crossed. Hopefully, we’ll know more soon. In the meantime, here’s the original’s trailer.

Jeffrey Reddick who created and co-wrote Final Destination, has just sold his TV pilot, titled The Feed, to Hood River Entertainment. The series, based on an idea by Roy Crabaugh, was developed by Riddick and Stephen Twardokus, will soon begin filming, EW reports. Not only is the first season of the supernatural series all mapped out, they are already planning season two. “The Feed is a supernatural series about a demon, created by online hatred, negativity, and vitriol, that uses technology to manipulate, torment, and kill its victims. The plan is for each season to explore a different aspect of American culture, and bring to light characters’ deepest fears, as the demon grows stronger and stronger. In season 1, the demon infects the smart house of a prominent African-American family and exploits the insidious undercurrent of racism in their community to terrorize them and tear the family apart. Season 2 focuses on a middle-class, Christian family whose beliefs are warped

Final Destination – A Look Back At The Deadly Franchise

A few days ago, news came that Tony Todd has confirmed that Final Destination 6 is finally entering production. I thought it would be a good time to take a stroll down memory lane and look back at the films that make up the death-filled franchise. The franchise began in 2000 with the first movie, directed by James Wong. Devon Sawa, Ali Larter, Sean Williams Scott, Amanda Detmer, and Tony Todd star in this fan favorite. After a teenager has a terrifying vision of himself and his friends dying in a plane crash, he prevents their deaths by exiting the plane. Moments later, the plane departs and blows up mid-air. Now Death is hunting them down, one by one. . . Final Destination 2, released in 2003 and directed by David R. Ellis, stars Tony Todd, Ali Larter, A.J. Cook, Michael Landes, David Paetkau, James Kirk, Keegan Connor Tracy, Jonathan Cherry, Terrance Carson, Justina Machado, and Alejandro Rae. The movie
