Final Destination 2

Final Destination 2 is a 2003 American supernatural horror film directed by David R. Ellis and co-written by Eric Bress and J. Mackye Gruber. Based on a screenplay by Jeffrey Reddick, it is a sequel to the 2000 film Final Destination and the second installment of the Final Destination series. The film stars Ali Larter, A.J. Cook and Michael Landes. Larter and Tony Todd are the only actors to reprise their roles from the first film. Cook portrays a woman who "cheats death" after having a premonition of herself and others perishing in a highway pile-up and uses it by saving herself and a handful of people, but is stalked by Death afterwards by means of claiming back their lives which should have been lost in the highway. It also explores the cliffhanger of the preceding film by revealing the fates of the previous survivors.

After the financial success of Final Destination, New Line Cinema contacted Reddick regarding plans for a sequel. Since the original film's crew was unavailable, New Line replaced most of the production team. Filming took place in Vancouver and Okanagan Lake. Final Destination 2 was released on 31 January 2003, as well as in DVD on 22 July 2003, which includes commentaries, deleted scenes, documentaries, and videos. A promotional score composed by Shirley Walker was also released on 30 September 2003.

The film received mixed reviews from critics; in which negative assessments sorted the film as "silly and illogical" and "begins with the same flawed premise" of its precursor, while positive evaluations eulogized the film as "a real jolter for horror fans", "recognizes the close relationship between fright and laughter", and "surprisingly good fun for the current crop of horror films". The film grossed $46 million domestically and $43 million overseas, earning $90 million internationally. It was nominated for four awards, including the Saturn Award for Best Horror Film.
