In the latest episode of Rewind of the Living Dead, we kick off our 2025 franchise review while cranking up the John Denver as we review 2000’s “Final Destination” along with our special guest Chuck and he’d love to be your movie guy… 

Writer Jeffrey Reddick was attempting to land a literary agent in New York when he decided to write a spec script in hopes that he could get some attention with it.

Reddick got an idea after he read an article about a woman on vacation whose mother told her to switch flights because she had a bad feeling about the plane. Things got much spookier when the plane the woman was supposed to fly on ended up crashing.

The idea stuck with him and Reddick decided to transform that into an “X-Files” episode where one of Dana Scully’s brothers had a premonition about a flight she was going to board and he was off and running.

He had some friends at New Line Cinema who ended up reading the script and loved the idea but told Reddick that he should abandon this as an “X-Files” episode and instead develop this as a feature length screenplay.

Reddick ended up developing the new version of the script for the next six months but when he presented it to New Line, the producers just couldn’t wrap their heads around not having a physical antagonist in the story.

Eventually one of the people working with Reddick told New Line if they passed, he would take it to Miramax instead and that led to them buying the script and producing the film.

The story revolves around a teenager going on a senior trip with his friends from high school and he has a premonition that the plane is going to explode but when the flight actually goes down, he’s struck with the ominous feeling that death is actually stalking him and the few classmates who ended up not boarding that fateful day….
