Wendy Christensen: Do you remember who sat behind you on the roller coaster?
Erin: Wasn't it that guy who got promoted to manager at the Red Lobster?
Ian McKinley: No, wait I remember. It was this guy wearing this long black cloak, I couldn't see his face though, but I think the ride attendant took his sickle. I hope that helps you.
FINAL DESTINATION 3, easily the best of the series and the only one I could at least marginally recommend, starts off very effectively. In a long sequence set during grad night at a garishly lit amusement park, the story's victims wander aimlessly, not realizing that the Grim Reaper has their names on his dance card. Well, all except one are oblivious to the horrors that await them. Wendy Christensen (Mary Elizabeth Winstead), who is there with the yearbook's digital camera to record it all, senses that a large number of the students are about to perish on the roller coaster. Her vision comes too late, so that she is only able to save some of them. The sounds and lights of the big disaster are done quite dramatically and believably so that, even if you haven't been afraid of roller coasters before, you may think twice about ever riding one again after viewing FINAL DESTINATION 3.
