Final Destination Bloodlines Box Office: Inches closer 50cr NETT in India with strong 2nd week
Final Destination: Bloodlines grossed Rs. 19 crore (USD 2.20 million) approx in its second week in India. The week-on-week drop was less than 45 per cent, which is a fantastic hold for a Hollywood film in India, particularly for a horror film, which tends to be frontloaded. The second week collections of the film are higher than bigger Hollywood releases like Thor: Love and Thunder, Jurassic World: Dominion, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 and so on. The total box office collections for Bloodlines in India after two weeks stand at Rs. 58.50 crore (USD 6.85 million). The NETT collections are just shy of Rs. 50 crore mark, at Rs. 47.75 crore, which it shall surpass tomorrow. Only one other Hollywood Horror film has collected more than Rs. 50 crore NETT in India, Bloodlines will be the second. Bloodlines had the tough task of competing directly with Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning. There were concerns that despite a good start, it may get overshadowed by the competition, but the film has held its ground remarkably well. In the first weekend, its collections were 40 per cent of The Final Reckoning, but by the end of the second week, it had significantly narrowed the gap, with yesterday being 75 per cent. If this trend continues, Bloodlines may even surpass Final Reckoning in daily collections during the third or fourth week. Notably, Mission: Impossible is one of the biggest Hollywood franchises in India, while no Final Destination film had ever crossed Rs. 10 crore in India until Bloodlines. While the franchise enjoyed strong recognition in India, that hadn't translated to box office success in the past due to a more limited market for Hollywood films back then. Times have changed, and finally, the franchise has found its due success. For Bloodlines, India is amongst the top markets globally, standing just behind the United Kingdom and Mexico, ahead of other major Hollywood markets. In terms of tickets sold, it is neck-and-neck with Mexico, it will eventually finish as a close second. The Box Office Collections of Final Destination: Bloodlines in India are as follows:

Box Office: Final Destination Bloodlines scores franchise-best USD 2.1M on 2nd Wednesday, nears USD 100M domestically
Final Destination: Bloodlines is racing toward a significant box office milestone. On its second Wednesday, the R-rated supernatural horror sequel earned a solid USD 2.1 million at the US box office, a franchise record for a second Wednesday. The figure marks a 48.8 percent drop from its opening Wednesday but comfortably beats 2009's The Final Destination, which took in USD 722K on its second Wednesday with a steeper 57 percent drop. With a cumulative domestic total of USD 99.1 million, Bloodlines is poised to cross the coveted USD 100 million within hours. That will make it just the tenth horror film released in the post-COVID era to hit that milestone at the US box office. The weekend should push it even further, past Alien: Romulus (USD 105.3M), making it the ninth-highest-grossing post-pandemic horror film domestically. Additionally, the film is set to enter the all-time top 30 horror earners in the US. Final Destination: Bloodlines is the sixth entry in the long-running horror franchise and is its most successful to date. Directed by Zach Lipovsky and Adam Stein, and written by Guy Busick and Lori Evans Taylor, the film introduces a fresh take on the franchise while honoring its legacy. Kaitlyn Santa Juana leads the cast as a college student who inherits haunting premonitions tied to a near disaster from 1968 through her dying grandmother. As death comes seeking her family, a new deadly chain of events unfolds. The film's supporting cast is rounded out by Teo Briones, Richard Harmon, Owen Patrick Joyner, Anna Lore, Brec Bassinger, and horror veteran Tony Todd. Originally conceived as a streaming property for HBO Max, Warner Bros. Pictures shifted gears and opted for a theatrical rollout, and the move seems to be paying off well. After delays due to the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strikes, production took place in Vancouver between March and May 2024. Released stateside on May 16, Final Destination: Bloodlines has earned widespread acclaim for both rebooting and continuing the cult franchise with its clever twists, suspenseful sequences, and emotional core. Globally, the film has grossed an impressive USD 190.9 million, making it not only the best-reviewed but also the highest-grossing entry in the series to date. With a projected domestic run of USD 125–135 million, Bloodlines has firmly reestablished Final Destination as one of horror's most bankable franchises, proving that the cheating death trope, only to pay for it later, still has a lot of life left in it.

Final Destination: Bloodlines – A gleefully gory good time
Considering it's been almost a decade since the last Final Destination film released, you may need reminding about the nuts and bolts that hold together this now 25-year-old horror franchise. In every Final Destination instalment, someone experiences a premonition of a fatal accident, at which point they act on their vision and save a group of people, including themselves. Except, that's against Death's plan, and the universe sets out to course correct, taking those lives via a new set of incidents. Featuring a cast of unknowns (Resident Evil actress Ali Larter is probably the most famous face associated with the series), Final Destination has no identifiable boogeyman; no masked, knife-wielding murderer. Its signature kills are styled after a Rube Goldberg Machine, where a water glass placed too close to the edge of a table, or even something as innocuous as a lone penny, can trigger a chain of cause-and-effect actions that culminate in death. It's unusually creative for the horror genre. It's also undeniably silly. And just released Final Destination: Bloodlines, the sixth film in the series, embraces that to its benefit. It's been a hot minute since most people last watched a Final Destination film (this writer included), but it doesn't feel like a stretch to say that Bloodlines, which can be watched with no previous universe knowledge, is immediately one of the best entries, if not thee best film, in the franchise. This is achieved through an excellent balance of tension, gore, and humour, while still also finding space for a sliver of relatable heart. That relatability stems from the fact that Final Destination: Bloodlines shifts the focus from a group of teen friends to an ordinary suburban family. It all starts when university student Stefani (Kaitlyn Santa Juana) finds herself on the brink of losing her scholarship due to debilitating nightmares where she sees her grandparents die in a horrific disaster during the 1960s. To work out the cause of her dream, Stefani must track down her estranged grandmother Iris (Gabrielle Rose), who insists that Death is coming for their family after she thwarted its intentions decades previously. Armed with Iris's research, it's up to Stefani to sate the Reaper in a way that also breaks the vengeance cycle and saves her loved ones, which include standout Richard Harmon as Stef's rebellious oldest cousin. The Final Destination films have never had much thematic depth, but by shifting from friends to a family unit, the film does have a bit more meat to work with. More specifically, it makes a point about parental anxieties over their children; how fear can lead to toxic obsession and over-protection. No one is watching a Final Destination movie for thought-provoking commentary on human existence, though. They're there for over-the-top deaths while they munch on their popcorn and sip their watered-down Coke. Bloodlines goes out of its way to deliver on that front, with co-directors Zach Lipovsky and Adam Stein (who previously made Freaks and the Kim Possible movie) and the film's team of writers demonstrating a playful attitude to the carnage. Playing off character and viewer paranoia – the infamous log truck from Final Destination 2 even gets a revisit – they bait the audience, dodge the expected payoff time and time again, before finally springing a grisly demise when and where you least expect it. Read more: Havoc on Netflix: Gritty action can't save this overloaded crime thriller A warning is that Final Destination: Bloodlines is age rated 18 for good reason, as the camera refuses to veer away from the various impalings, dismemberments, immolations, squashings and so on. And yet it's still kind of fun. Bloodlines isn't alone in recent times in depicting graphic accidental deaths – last year saw the release of The Fall of the House of Usher on Netflix, and goofy The Monkey hit the big screen this February – yet it's Bloodlines that really hits the sweet, and simultaneously shocking spot. It's ideal as a cinema outing so you can watch it alongside like-minded people gasping and giggling in illicit delight. Enjoy every minute left to you. DM
