The premise of “Final Destination” is delightfully simple: If you somehow manage to cheat death, the grim reaper will claim your soul through a series of lethal, Rube Goldberg-esque traps. But like so many other long-running horror franchises, the rules that guide the “Final Destination” universe have become increasingly complicated over time.

Warners is reporting $5.5M in previews for New Line’s Final Destination: Bloodlines, well ahead of what we were spotting. That’s ahead of Sinners‘ $4.7M. It’s also $100K higher than the previews for Conjuring spinoff The Nun which went on to do a $22M Friday and $53M 3-day.

The 'Final Destination' franchise is back, with cleverly staged thrills, gore galore and Kaitlyn Santa Juana leading a 'Bloodlines' cast that includes the late, great Tony Todd.
