Death's Design™️ Presents Highway Haute Couture! FINAL DESTINATION 2 Movie Reaction/ Commentary

[@erauprcwa]

In my opinion, THIS movie had the most generational trauma than any other horror movie in history. So many fears that people have in life is due to this movie. The Truck... The water bottles Garbage disposals Barbed wire fences PVC pipe that is cracked Elevator doors

[@seattlecryptid]

The most underrated of the series, but the one that everyone remembers because of that one damn truck. lol

[@CollateralDamage93]

This series left me with a host of irrational fears SMH. They have never featured a vacuum accident, but I still fear that someway somehow the vacuum is going to combust and strangle me -_- LOLOLOL

[@CollateralDamage93]

OMG the water bottles in the car is another thing I get anxious about hahahahaha Love that we can all trauma bond over this movie

[@envynell1425]

There were no lies made in this statement

[@LiirThropp2687]

Yep. You're 100% right on that one.

[@allenpayne927]

"She left her daughter motherless for a Ford Focus?" I don't know why this made me laugh so hard 😂

[@JB-eh1jj]

That had me cracking up and when she sanged the theme song to That’s so Raven

[@LiirThropp2687]

I was actually devastated when Clear died. 🥺 But the novelization of the movie states that Clear actually feels a strange sort of relief as she dies. She's lived the past year in constant terror and paranoia. Her last thoughts are at least the fear and fighting is over. Pretty interesting. She wasn't really living being locked up and afraid anyway. I was still sad to see her go. 🙁

[@AneudiD78]

It also changed the dynamic of any future movie, in which we know the hero never dies. With Clear being dead, nobody is safe and keeps the audience guessing.

[@LiirThropp2687]

@@AneudiD78 Yup. I immediately stopped expecting anyone to survive the movies at all. Plus I was kinda bitter and didn't even care if Kimberly or Officer Burke survived after losing Clear.

[@berndgeels]

"An extra wing on the plate." OH. MY. GOD. That is one of your funniest lines yet!!!!

[@TheBearAspirin]

The lead up to Evan's death was hysterically prophetic. Loved the magnetic letters on the fridge that said "HEY E" until the H fell into his noodles leaving the letters to spell "EYE" 👁

[@SmileyAdventures]

How did I not realize that after seeing this the day it hit BlockBuster for rental lol. Thanks for this 😂

[@rodgill9376]

Add on top of the irony is that the doll in the hallway had only one eye. More genius foreshadowing!

[@IDrinkWeed]

There’s a bunch of foreshadowing before his death. There’s a lot of focus of “luck” in this movie, Evan being the lucky lottery winner. The pileup of cars in the hallway near the eyeless baby doll, the cooking oil he used had a black cat on it, his horse shoe ring, there’s a car in a different room of his apartment that looks just like his and it’s facing a demonic statue, the brand of chicken strips he was making was in reference to a fire. There’s a lot for one character 😭

[@Shuichisaihara5499]

And the H fell into noodles… hinting at the noodles that would cause his undoing

[@jordancaleb3419]

“If you can gaze into the future… life is not a breeze I’m out here struggling” girl I’m hollering 😂 glad to see you doing well🥰🥰

[@haiyez]

Fun fact: the institution where Clear is staying is the same hospital where they filmed Laurie’s scenes in Halloween Resurrection.

[@jordancaleb3419]

Dang thanks for this! Had no idea

[@Sabiliwisely8315]

And the name on the fire department truck at the farm is Lake view, the name of the crystal lake high school in Friday the 13th part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan.

[@KB-90]

You really hit us with the classic Tommy Pickles "sponserbileries" 😂

[@mysterybox9250]

Actually the water bottle is very realistic! One day I was driving and I had a water bottle on in the car. The next thing I know, something fell in the car and I went to pick it up but now the water bottle went missing. When I tried to brake. I notice the car wasn’t coming to a full stop and I had to exert much more force. Then it happened again and I thought something was wrong with my car. I come to find out that the WATER BOTTLE was lodge directly behind the brake! Just like this movie. It was truly a nightmare come to life lol. Never again

[@AshLee92490]

Everyone always talk about the wood truck, as they should, but that the water bottle slipping under the brake pedal always stuck with me as well. Fast forward to it actually happening to me, and it's just as traumatizing as I imagined 🤣😂😭...

[@MissBimbo222]

ARE U OK???!

[@Nyantrii]

"Y'all are kind of hot together...you should explore that." Pleaseee not the foreshadowing 😂😂

[@mikaelajohnsonnn]

I love that you personified the death entity “DD” 😂

[@-M0LE]

Dee dee or diddy😂

[@KevinPendragon]

As Bob as my witness, it's those trucks that carry gravel that are scarier than the log trucks. All it takes is one flying pebble to set you back a couple hundred for a new windshield 😭

[@mirrorforce8025]

My personal theory to why the "rules" & "justification" for Death doing this changes all the time between movies is because it's not about fixing some grand design. It's a game where they change up the rules & strategy every time. Let's say there are two entities. One is the God of Life, the other the God of Death. Much like God & Lucifer's bet on Job to play with Job's faithfulness, they play a game to play with Humanity's desire to survive. Death creates a significant scenario that would warrant a decent amount of people to die (plane crash, highway pileup, rollercoaster derailing, racetrack crash, bridge collapse, etc.). Then Life picks who will be the final victim (the Prophet), and allows them the chance to see exactly how they will all die and what order (also sends them hints prior, explaining Alex & Kimberly's room full of foreshoadowing). Death gets a point for every time he takes a life (with extra points if the death gets more nonsensical), Life gets a point for every person skipped in the order. Life is allowed to send visions and clues to the Prophet, and the game goes until all the people are dead. Sometimes they start new games while still playing old ones (which explains how Alex & Clear's deaths overlap with the Route 23 game), Death tried to cheat sometimes: with the bathtub death (hence cleaning up the puddle so Alex would believe it could be possible Tod did kill himself), and another one I don't wanna bring up cause Alanda hasn't seen FD4. Sometimes they change the order to shake things up. William Bludworth has been confirmed to not be Death incarnate, so my theory is that he's actually Life instead. Life doesn't have to be a good being, cause well......life sucks. Life takes the form of a coroner or mortician because he finds the irony hilarious.

[@Regmuslima]

You'd love Brandon Sanderson's Cosmere series

[@kai_winchester_66]

The log truck scene really has traumatised us all 🤣

[@sgcastle8389]

Death really killed Alex with a brick, DD was like "you tried to capitalize but i caught you"

[@SmileyAdventures]

“We got him, we got him 😌”

[@AshLee92490]

They way you just casually nicknamed Death's Design as "D.D.", now I'm trying not to imagine D.D. from Dexter's Laboratory just being her casual, destructive self but just accidentally killing people along the way just like her brother's lab 🤣😂😭...

[@jordancaleb3419]

Screaming 😂

[@JC_Cali]

Really naturally cunning on Alana's part lmaooo

[@GhostKyng]

At least that’s what you think of. My girlfriend’s name is D’Metria but her nickname is DeDe lol

[@rodgill9376]

What's crazy about these movies is that the characters are all interlinked with each other in some way or another. Which again points to the themes of the series. Every action or inaction. It doesn't matter what you do. In the end, they're still going to die. For example, had Billy not died, Officer Burke would had died in his place. Or Kat being on the very bus that ran over Terry. Had Kimberly not seen the news about Tod's death, she would had died instead of her mother. Its really messed up when you think about it!

[@BrandonJames2016]

This movie is responsible on why so many people don’t drive behind log trucks and even I myself avoid them every time I see one. This movie is a great sequel better than the original especially in the kills. Pretty sad our lovely survivor died she was being smart and was living up until these newbies came into her life. The fact they killed off our mc from the last movie offscreen as well is so disrespectful but death pretty much wins.

[@teekxoxo]

yea i had to drive outta town recently and any log truck i’m behind im driving hella slow

[@GhostKyng]

I drove behind one two weeks ago 30 ft away

[@Hey_Jamie]

No, it isn’t. This movie didn’t trigger common sense in people. Common sense is why you don’t. You watching this as a child having no sense of driving safety and realizing that doesn’t make it responsible for why most people know better.

[@-M0LE]

As someone from the UK I'm happy to say we don't have log trucks never seen any because we don't chop down lots of nature

[@KIll74N]

​​​​@@Hey_JamieIt really wasn't common sense. Before this movie, many people expected log trucks to have secure logs (obviously, thats how theyre meant to be) and never thought much of it, but after this movie the log truck scene is always at the back of everyone's minds. So even on a busy motorway where you have no choice but to drive behind one, everyone still stays a good 30 ft behind, try to switch to the farthest lane, or just exit the motorway altogether 😭😭😭. Another example is the vaccum kill, is it mildly unreasonable and paranoid? Yes, but I know so many people who are now hypervigilant when using vaccums and pretty much anything else because of these movies.

[@mfuentes4961]

The movie that birthed the phobia of driving near logging trucks for millions lol

[@markalexander3659]

Kimberly actually made things WORSE. Not only did everybody she saved die anyway but A PILE-UP STILL HAPPENED. SO a whole bunch of other people who weren't even supposed to die died too lol

[@Regmuslima]

Not to mention she ended up making all the grisly deaths a self fulfilling prophecy with her terrible warnings. A couple of them wouldn't have been as bad or long lasting had she not intervened

[@lordhoot1]

This reminds me of the time I found Wikipedia's article "List of Unusual Deaths". The early ones were macabre fun - Greek philosophers laughing themselves to death and stuff - but then we got to the modern freak accidents and it left me with a fear of basically everything

[@khalilgiovanni]

There used to be a show on MTV I think called 1,000 Ways to Die. It didn't unlock any fears, but it did show me that there are some ridiculous ways to go haha.

[@kaitofuang1180]

Girl you and me literally thinking the same when I start driving...since five things to be aware of that I won't do 1-Don't ever drive behind near a truck log 2- Don't ignore the sign of danger/death 3-Keep my eyes on the road 4-Wear my seatbelt always 5-Dont have a water bottle near my driving area When you said new fear unlocked with water bottle, literally me and my Mom when we saw this two decades ago of don't have the water bottle near the driving area, cause boy we drove a lot in the freeway/highway. So laughed my ass off at that part. Love your reaction on these movie react, cause you giving me such a laugh off with your comments on the scenes.

[@lawrencepola]

'She's wasn't a fighter, she was a FOOL' Also, I've had the same thought over the years about Justina's photo when the cop looks it up - it looks like she's gonna faint.

[@rafaelnavarro6072]

I think my favorite part about this movie is them going the extra mile to use practical effects as much as they could. Almost all of the pile-up scene in the beginning is done practically. They literally closed off a highway and flipped cars around with real drivers inside, and had actual controlled explosions. Almost all the deaths were done practically with the actors, or practically and then layered shots together.

[@smonk77]

Nice catch with Noel Fisher! I didnt even recognize it was Mickey Milkovich until you pointed it out for me which made his death at the end that much more shocking for me lmao

[@icon4ever]

Ugh your mind is so powerful. Alanda, if we don’t see you before the holiday; enjoy your holiday. Immensely excited for whatever is next for the channel.

[@karenhillard5111]

Yes...I click sooooo fast when my notification popped up...yeeeeees...my girl Alanda is back!!! I'm ready toget into it!!! Love you!!!❤

[@stephenmcclellan7320]

I'm gonna say it, this one probably has the best characters out of all the FD movies. The first film had a solid cast but I feel like we hardly got to see them interact as a group, and the characters in the later films were just 1-D insufferable assholes most of the time. I love the fact in this movie we get to see these complete strangers forced into a situation where they have to mingle and learn to tolerate each other even though their personalities are so different from each other. Also justice for the high camp cigarette smoking professional, she deserved better than a pipe through the head

[@stilesstilinski9640]

After that last scene, I was dying laughing. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Nah, that's someone's kid. I'll stop. "Dinner is served." LMFAO

[@gelicainouza8481]

FD2 has THE best premonition scene out of all the Final Destination movies. Overall there are other better movies as a whole in the series. But the highway accident alone is top tier😎💕

[@final_queer]

This movie unlocked so many new fears and phobias for me as a kid. 😵‍💫 I hope you get to react to Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones, it's sort of a spinoff but it still ties to the first one and it's one of the best ones imo. 👀

[@oklahomie95]

Agreed!! Marked Ones is definitely the scariest and ties a lot of things together

[@NickNutjob]

It started as a spin-off but is officially considered the fifth film

[@GhostKyng]

Finally getting back to Final Destination!! I hope you see the rest. Of course you can skip Final Destination 4 but 3 & 5 are pretty good. Fun facts: • The Accident on the highway was based on a real Pile Up that happened on Interstate 75 in Ringgold,GA on March 14th, 2002 with a total of 125 car piled up. • Originally, Devon Sawa was to reprise his role of Alex Browning in this film, but a dispute concerning his contract with New Line Cinema could not be settled. So the had to write him off. • Originally they had use real logs for the opening catastrophe, but they didn’t bounce enough for that scare effect, so they used CGI logs. • The car Evan drives is A 1987 Pontiac FireBird (ironic ain’t it?) • They were gonna have him die from a flesh eating bacteria but went with the brick instead. • When Nora tucks Tim in at night, dimming the lights, his face is illuminated with a skull outline, foreshadowing his death. • There is a myth that when a bird hits your window, somebody you know is going to die. • Nora's death is based on a real life incident: Dr. Hitoshi Nikaidoh, a surgical resident at a Houston hospital, was decapitated by a malfunctioning elevator in 2002. The doctor's shoulders were pinned by the doors, which then allowed the ceiling to slice off most of his head as the elevator continued to move upwards. • When Eugene tried to commit suicide with a gun, the gun had six bullets in it, which marked him as the sixth survivor to die. • According to the book, the fire that kills Clear and Eugene was originally started by a birthday cake.

How do I find and buy the book? Would Amazon sell it??

Was in the car with my friend once (like, this year), and her water bottle legit fell on the floor near the pedals, but she grabbed it right away (while still driving lmao) and omg, I instantly thought of this movie. The log truck thing doesn't get me. The water bottle thing does.

Omg Alanda you just blew my mind! This is my favorite Final Destination movie, and I used to watch Living Single back when it was on cause I'm old. But I NEVER made that connection somehow. Currently reevaluating my life and pop culture knowledge!

[@angelinagarza3473]

Alot of people think the last death was for shock value and I always get sad bc of it. They made it a point to talk about how the survivors of the plane crash, lived and messed up the timeline for other people, then had a survivor of the highway crash, save a boy who otherwise probably would have died. It's a web, it's all connected. I love this series plz finish it, it has one of if not the best ending in a series of horror movies I've ever seen

[@TheMtVernonKid]

TC Carson, we also know him for being the voice of young Kratos

[@gelfling3077]

Every reaction is better than the last! Alanda, you absolutely crack me up. And those bows are SO cute on you!!

[@digidv85]

I understand James Wong directed Final Destination 1 and the late David R. Ellis directed Final Destination 2. One mistake that always bothered me in 2 is when Michael Landes is looking at the photos before coming across the fate of Devon Sawa's character. Look at the image of Chad Donella (Tod from FD 1) and how it's labeled ''before the coroner arrived.'' His hands are grasping at the wire. At the moment of his demise in FD 1, his arms go limp by their respective sides. So, the photo is inaccurate. Would also dispute the argument how Tod was wracked with guilt as his father insisted.

[@allison825]

The lumber truck is straight up the only thing I remembered from this movie, and its because I think about it every time I'm driving behind a laden vehicle. I was behind someone with a bike on their roof last week and all I could think was "I hope that doesn't come directly through my windshield, I'm not ready to die."

[@JackOiswatching]

I can't remember my mom's birthday but I'll always remember why I don't drive behind log trucks on the highway.

I LOVE this one, I would say it's my second favorite lol Kimberly can be frustrating sometimes but she's still one of my favorite characters in the franchise, not as big of a fan of Thomas or whatever his name is but he's here too I guess. Just a little funfact about both this movie and myself, when I watched this movie as a kid for some reason I really wanted Clear and Kimberly together. Turns out I'm a lesbian so that probably had something to do with it lmao Also there's five movies, the fourth is just called "THE Final Destination" for some reason (its also by far the worst imo. hated every character besides like 2) Super excited for the third movie, its my favorite! I love the two main characters and there's a pair of background characters I also really like, plus I also like the slightly different vibe with all the carnival/celebration stuff going on in it.
