Final Destination: Bloodlines 4K Blu-ray Movie Review

All in the family.

Available alongside the separate wide-release 4K UHD and Blu-ray editions, Warner Bros. also offers fans a Limited Edition 4K/Blu-ray Steelbook combo pack of Zach Lipovsky and Adam Stein's surprisingly decent horror-comedy Final Destination: Bloodlines, the sixth and definitely not final film in this long-running franchise and the first in 14 years. The on-disc contents here are identical to their standard counterparts, meaning it's a cosmetic variant only.

NOTE: These screenshots are sourced from the Blu-ray edition, available separately and reviewed here (soon).

For separate write-ups of the 2160p/HDR10/Dolby Vision and 1080p/SDR transfers (both of which are comparatively great), please see my recent reviews of both the 4K UHD and Blu-ray editions.

Final Destination: Bloodlines 4K Blu-ray Movie, Special Features and Extras 

This two-disc release ships in matte-finish Steelbook packaging with an image of a human skull hanging by a nose piercing. Those who have seen the film already know that's not exactly how one character's fate ultimately ends, but it's still pretty badass. The back cover just continues the blurry pinkish-red color gradient, while the interior features the Skyview in mid-destruction with both discs on overlapping hubs to the right. I'll admit that both the standard 4K UHD and Blu-ray editions have better covers and the other elements of this design aren't all that great either, but others may feel differently. If nothing else, having the film on both formats is the real benefit here.

The bonus features listed below are identical to both standard versions and detailed in those linked reviews.

• Audio Commentary with co-directors Adam Stein and Zach Lipovsky

• Death Becomes Them: On the Set of Final Destination Bloodlines (6:11)

• The Many Deaths of Bloodlines (7:26)

• The Legacy of Bludworth (5:24)

Final Destination: Bloodlines 4K Blu-ray Movie, Overall Score and Recommendation 

Zach Lipovsky and Adam Stein (both new to the franchise) both make their mark with Final Destination: Bloodlines, which is at once an accessible entry point, a solid reboot, and the most financially successful iteration to date despite the franchise's 14-year hiatus. I enjoyed it quite a bit despite parts of the story and its rules not holding up to scrutiny, but I've got a feeling that time will be pretty kind to this one. Warner Bros. offers three main home video options for fans and newcomers: a regular ol' Blu-ray, a 4K UHD, and a preferred Steelbook combo pack, each with comparatively solid A/V presentations as well as the same assortment of decent bonus features. Recommended.
