"Final Destination Bloodlines Scores Over $100M in Launch Weekend"

Final Destination: Bloodlines is slashing its way to a record-breaking performance at the global box office, having crossed the $100 million threshold during its opening weekend. The film has achieved an impressive feat with a balanced haul of $51 million from both domestic and international markets, culminating in a global total of $102 million. This marks the strongest opening weekend in the history of the Final Destination series, positioning Bloodlines to potentially overtake the current record holder, The Final Destination, which grossed $186.1 million back in 2009.

The success of Final Destination: Bloodlines is particularly noteworthy as it breathes new life into a franchise that has been on hiatus since the release of Final Destination 5 in 2011, which earned $157 million worldwide. This resurgence is a testament to the enduring appeal and creative evolution of the series.

IGN's review of Final Destination: Bloodlines awarded it an impressive 8/10, with our critique stating, "Final Destination: Bloodlines amps up the absurdity of Death’s design, and the resulting horror-comedy will have you dying laughing."
