New ‘Final Destination’ Poster Puts the ‘The’ Back in Horror

What a strange title.   First called ‘Final Destination 4: Death Trip,’ the producers behind the latest film about teenagers cheating Death (Death don’t like to be cheated) have opted to give the film a “reboot” feeling.   It’s not a reboot.   God knows we’re only about three or four years from actually remaking   ‘Final Destination.’

Actually, putting the word ‘The’ at the beginning of the title gives the impression that this could be the last film in the franchise.  Fat chance of that happening considering each of the preceding films have grossed, on average, over $50 million.  This next one doesn’t look to be any different.

‘The Final Destination’ opens on August 28th, 2009.  Strangely enough, it opens on the same day as Rob Zombie’s ‘Halloween 2.’  I’m wondering if one or the other will flinch before that day comes.
