The Latest On ‘Final Destination 6’…
Bloody reader ‘Kool Red’ sent us over to The Calvert Journal, which appears to be a legit site, with information about the long gestured Final Destination 6. Unfortunately, none of it is true.
The site had claimed that the sixth Destination would be filmed in Russia, according to Alexei Ryazantsev, CEO of Russian distribution company Karo Premiere. Speaking at the Window onto Europe film festival in Vyborg last week, Ryazantsev said his firm was negotiating the details with Warner Bros., Final Destination’s US distributor, and that the film had garnered considerable interest from foreign investors.
While they may be talking distribution with foreign investors and distributors, we put a call into one of our sources close to the franchise who refuted this story immediately.
What I’ve been told, though, is that New Line Cinema and Warner Bros. Pictures are still considering making a sixth film, but a story has yet to be nailed down. To say this is premature is an understatement.
We’ll keep you updated when we have more info to share.
Final Destination 5, directed by Into the Storm‘s Steven Quale, opened in theaters in 2011 and made more than $150M worldwide. The franchise is quite popular and successful overseas, so a sixth wouldn’t come as a shock.

‘Home Bodies’ Image & Poster Introduce Isolated Twins in Sci-Fi Nightmare [Fantasia 2026]
Sci-fi thriller Home Bodies is set to unsettle audiences at the 30th edition of Fantasia, and our exclusive image introduces a peculiar pair of twins at the center.
Home Bodies makes its World Premiere July 23, at 9:30 PM at Cinéma du Musée in Montreal, with the filmmakers and cast in attendance.
An eerie new poster created by Justin Erickson of Phantom City Creative heralds the film’s premiere.
In the film, “Red and Blue, twins raised in total isolation by an automated house, live according to the rules set by Papa, a disembodied voice behind a locked door who provides food, shelter, entertainment, and order. Their carefully controlled world is disrupted by the arrival of Pal, an enigmatic humanoid stranger whose presence begins to fracture the only life the twins have ever known.”
It’s a premise that calls another Canadian creeper to mind and has us intrigued: Pin.
Emma Ho, Ian Ho, and Ess Hödlmoser star.
Home Bodies is directed and produced by Casey Walker, who returns to Fantasia more than a decade after his horror-comedy A Little Bit Zombie screened at the festival in 2012. He’s since gone on to produce a number of defining Canadian genre films like In a Violent Nature, The Void, and Pyewacket.
“I started my career in Montreal and Fantasia has been part of my life ever since,” said Walker. “I couldn’t be more thrilled to return to where it all started and share Home Bodies on such a special anniversary of the festival.“
Karen Harnisch (Infinity Pool, Sleeping Giant) also produces. Executive producers are Todd Brown (The Raid, Mandy) and Chad Archibald (undertone).
