First of all, I have to say that I have played a steam game called "Death Coming" before, which is called "Death Coming" in English. This time I supplemented the "Infinite Horror" film list, only to find that the original "Death is Coming" movie is not such a literal translation, the original English name is actually Final Destination.

It was originally planned that all horror films that indiscriminately kill innocents will be capped at four stars, but this "Death Comes" has changed my mind.

The male protagonist has a perfect character, is brave and resourceful, and values ​​love and righteousness. The screenwriter did not choose the line of "death kills the heart, let the protagonist who defies him be forced to death by public opinion, or fails to save his companions because of the entanglement of the police", which seems to be a high-level line, but it's really frustrating. Favorability +1. The whole film uses a relatively restrained use of the horror created by the visual effects, and there are basically no heavy scenes. The screenwriter even arranged for each deceased a way of death that can be concave safety warnings, such as paying attention to the non-slip of the bathroom, not being distracted on the road, immediately staying away from electrical appliances, not to fake suicide for other purposes, and not to be in a dangerous situation. Risk of belongings, etc.

On the whole, this may be the horror movie that suits my taste the most, or if there is more than it, it may only be the kind of movie that is not strictly a horror movie. So I give five stars.

Final Destination quotes

  • [With cups of coffee, Alex and Clear sit down at a Espresso shop corner table]

    Alex Browning: The mortician said that Death has a design. Okay. I'm talking about omens. How do we know that just by sitting here - by, by sipping this coffee, or breathing the air, or even crossing the intersection - that we haven't even started in motion the events that will some day lead to our death: forty years from now, ten years from now, tomorrow. We don't. Unless we open ourselves up...

    Alex Browning: [as clear glances nervously at the intersection, Alex draws from his pocket the tiny slice of paper that reads "Tod" and slides it across the table to her]

    Alex Browning: ...to the signs that It's willing to show us?

    Clear Rivers: I don't understand. Did you see Tod die? Did it happen again, like on the plane?

    Alex Browning: [shaking his head] No. No, it didn't, but, I mean, it might as well have. This is a message from something, Clear, or someone - hinting at a design.

    Clear Rivers: Total bullshit. I mean, you can find death omens anywhere you want to.

    [Alex glances at the window of the Espresso shop and sees the ghostly reflection of a bus passing by. As she continues to talk, ominous music rises and Alex glances worriedly around the streets]

    Clear Rivers: Coffee. Starts with a C and ends with an E. So does the word "choke." So, what, we're going to choke to death? I wanna hear you.

    [Alex glances anxiously over his shoulder again]

    Clear Rivers: We'll go nuts if you start with this shit.

    Alex Browning: The mortician said that Death has a design. Right? Now, what if you, me, Tod, Carter, Terry, Billy, Mrs. Lewton messed up that design. For whatever reason, I, I saw Death's plan. We cheated him. But what if it was our time? What if we were not meant to get off that plane? What if it still is our time? If it is, then it's not finished, and we will die - now, not later - unless, unless we find the patterns and cheat It again.

    [Behind Alex's back, Carter drives his car up to the intersection and waits for the light. Terry is sitting next to him. Carter glances over to see Alex and Clear, and he scowls. Terry smiles at Carter, then sees them too, and her smile fades, as though fearful of a confrontation]

    Clear Rivers: After hearing you, I, I do believe...

    [Alex smiles]

    Clear Rivers: ...that Tod killed himself.

    [Alex's face turns serious]
