So not only does the 4th Final Destination look terrible, but it looks like the writers decided to (possibly) rip off part of "Guts". Take a look and tell me what you think..

Final Destination is probably the greatest horror franchise ever. The ways in which they come up with these deaths is pure mousetrap brilliance!

Doesn't it say in 'Guts' that a lot of people die that way each year? And seeing that those stories occaisionaally gets published in the news, they could have gotten the idea from there.

Though I do prefer that 'Guts' be the only fictional story that uses the idea. Especially since, having read that, the idea isn's shocking to me anymore.

Guts was a true story.
