It is no surprise to people familiar with my cinematic tastes that I am fan of both horror movies and the new digital 3D presentation. In fact, when “My Bloody Valentine 3D” came out earlier this year, I was thrilled, and I found it to be one of the guilty pleasures of the winter movie season.
I was similarly excited to see the latest installment in the “Final Destination” film series. After all, I really enjoyed the first three films. The original was clever and grim, and the second built upon the mythology created. By the time they got to the third film, the series was allowed to get a little campy, and that movie was so over-the-top and had its tongue planted firmly in its cheek. Swish, bang! Another guilty pleasure.
