Final Destination Bloodlines: Brilliantly Dumb or Just Dead Inside?

In this episode of The Cinema Psychos Show, we’re joined by Pittsburgh filmmakers Aero Rae and Jake Hecht to unpack the chaos that is Final Destination: Bloodlines. From MRI-induced body horror to Tony Todd’s emotional farewell, we dissect how this sixth entry turns death into a Rube Goldberg cartoon — and why we might secretly love it. We dive into the franchise’s tone shift, the absurd kill setups (yes, the lawnmower and the exploding piercings), and whether this over-the-top sequel actually earns its place as one of the highest-grossing Final Destination films ever. Is Bloodlines a smart-dumb horror gem or just entertaining slop? Let’s get into it. NEWSLETTER and UNCUT REELS!!!!!
