Tagline: | Most people have dreams. For Alex, this is real. |
Favourite line: | "In death there are no accidents, no coincidences, no mishaps, and no escapes." |
A group of college students get onboard a plane, only for one of them to have a panic attack as he witnesses a vision of the future - a future in which the plane they are on plummets to the ground in a blaze of fire, killing everyone on board.
He screams and rants, eventually causing the group to leave the plane and, lo and behold, the bloody thing only goes and crashes.
Thus, the group have cheated death, and Death is not a happy bunny, picking them off one by one in a series of elaborate set pieces.
This is good popcorn horror, with the fun coming in guessing how they are going to die. It's pretty jumpy too, especially the bit with the bus.
Written and directed by former The X-Files scribes.
Entertaining.
