i hate it when the main character isn't in a sequel to a movie (SAW movies 123456789029358).

Saw rocks, there is no "main" character, except Jigsaw. And he's in all of them.

Yeah, the first one was the best. Second one was okay, but the opening freeway accident was cinematic awesomeness. Heck, Quentin Tarantino says the freeway accident in FD2 was one of the best car crashes ever put on film.

And then FD3 was just a slasher movie. No plot or anything. We're all hoping the fourth won't be like that, and from what I'm hearing, it won't be.

Saw 5 is out this October. And Megan Good is in it.

From lots of rumors, sounds like Final Destination 4 is set for a January 2009 release.


Filming is finished at the end of May, so we should expect to see more set photos by June and a trailer by the time Saw 5 is released.

Deaths revealed!!!!! *spoilers below*


































Final Destination 4: The 3-D Set Visit! - ShockTillYouDrop.com

For the fourth movie, there are two big set pieces rather than just one, the first one being the catalyst for all of the bloody kills that follow, a devastating car crash at a racetrack, while the second big set piece is a deadly explosion at a movie theater that was being shot at the makeshift soundstage while we were visiting. Apparently, there's a construction site behind this movie theater and something happens there that sets off a huge explosion that sends tools, nails and construction materials (cinderblocks and rebar) flying into the theater and invariably, into the poor trio of friends who thought that seeing a good movie might take their minds off of all the death and destruction they've witnessed.

We saw a long line of TRL-looking extras lining up to shoot a pre-explosion scene, and other extras and stuntmen were casually wandering around the set with severe facial burns, one guy's eye was hanging from his face while another looked like Pinhead from Hellraiser having taken a box of flying nails to his head. (See, kids? That's what happens when you go to see a Renny Harlin movie. Let that be a lesson to you.)

After we spoke with Perry and the actors, we were shown some edited but unfinished footage just to give us an idea what the 3D would look like. While this footage included a number of sublime scenes of the friends sitting in a bar talking and watching wall monitors, we also got a taste for the gory racetrack mayhem, presumably some being from Nick's premonition. One car slams through the fence into some poor schmoe who probably thought he had pretty good seats, and outside the racetrack, a young woman, who is completely freaking out and yelling at the four friends, is decapitated when a spinning tire comes flying through the air from the racetrack. (This is probably going to look even more amazing when it's finished with the ubiquitous blood and gore.) One of the first (and probably most deserved) kills is that of a racist mechanic at the race played by Justin Welborn (The Signal), who we saw getting dragged behind a tow truck before catching on fire. (Earlier, we saw a photo of dummy lookalikes of Wellborn and the actress playing his wife severed in half, which might have been their fate if not for Nick's premonition.)

The three kids were also seen entering a garage with lots of potential opportunities for gruesome deaths hinted at, leading to a scene of some guy getting smooshed against a fence by a runaway van.

There was also a scene of Haley Webb going through a car wash and running into some troubles there, though one could probably assume that this wasn't her final fate, because Death wouldn't be so cruel as to kill her, would it? The footage ended with a shot of a bloodied-up Krista Allen having a huge car engine dropped on her with the cute catchphrase, something like "Coming at You in 2009." Ellis told us later that this footage was just to give us a taste for the movie and they hadn't shown us the "good stuff" since none of the visual FX had been added yet. For instance, there's apparently a death sequence in a beauty parlor, a location that Ellis brought to the mix.

Filming is officially done. We should expect the trailer to debut in a few months. I'll bet $3.40 that the trailer will show before "Saw 5"
