That's Gonna Hurt In The Morning: New Poster For Final Destination 5

"The rules have changed!" promised the new trailer for Final Destination 5, which is good news for all. If the claim is true then surely this horror sequel will have good acting, a decent plot and well-written dialogue and will not in any way be stupid, pointless or merely a half-assed cash in.

Alright, that's enough ribbing, especially since I will admit that the new poster debuted by Yahoo is actually quite cool in a thrash metal album cover kind of way.

The series is somewhat suffering from We-Thought-This-Franchise-Was-Dead-So-We-Already-Carved-a-Tombstone-For-It Syndrome since it named the last film The Final Destination instead of Final Destination 4, despite the fact that it was the 4th film in the series and… wait, how and why have they made so many of these things?

If I seem overly harsh, it's only because I actually really loved the original film and rewound my VHS copy of it endlessly so I could watch Seann William Scott getting decapitated over and over and over and over…

Final Destination 5 will be released in cinemas on August 12th in the USA and August 26th in the UK. If you want to go and see it. Alternatively, you could stay at home and hammer nails into your own skull. The jury is still out on which would be less painful.

UPDATED slightly for accuracy.
