Hold on to your seats, horror fans—Death has never been more unstoppable.

The sixth entry in the iconic Final Destination franchise, Final Destination: Bloodlines, carved a terrifying path through cinemas over the weekend, smashing box office records across the Philippines and making the country one of the top global markets for the film.

According to a report by Deadline, the film raked in a staggering $102 million worldwide on its debut, with international markets contributing half of that total. Impressively, the Philippines ranked among the Top 3 international markets for opening weekend gross—a remarkable feat that cements the country’s status as a horror-loving hub.

Filipino-Canadian Kaitlyn Santa Juana leads the cast of “Final Destination Bloodlines”

Record-Breaking Weekend in the Philippines

Locally, Final Destination: Bloodlines earned $3.4 million (₱196 million) during its opening weekend, making it the biggest box office opening of 2025 so far in the Philippines.

But the body count of records doesn’t end there.
- Biggest opening weekend for an R-16 rated film in the country.
- Second-highest debut ever for a horror movie in the Philippines.
Not bad for a franchise where—spoiler alert—everyone dies.

A Chilling Return to Death’s Origins

Rated R-16 without cuts, the film plunges audiences back into the twisted mythos of Death’s cruel design.

The story follows Stefanie (played by rising star Kaitlyn Santa Juana), a college student tormented by violent, recurring nightmares. Fearing for her life—and her family’s—she returns home to confront the past and uncover the chilling secrets that could end the bloodline curse… if it’s not already too late.

Directed by Adam Stein and Zach Lipovsky, this latest chapter reunites audiences with Final Destination’s signature suspense, gruesome ingenuity, and fate-driven storytelling. Santa Juana leads a stellar ensemble, including Teo Briones (a proud part-Filipino talent), Richard Harmon, Owen Joyner, Anna Lore, Rya Kihlstedt, Brec Bassinger, and the late, legendary Tony Todd.

Filmmakers Reveal the Thrills Behind the Kills

What keeps fans coming back for more? Co-director Adam Stein explains:

“The fun of ‘Final Destination’ is all those little elements that lead up to the deaths,” says co-director Stein. “And those elements are all inanimate, which means that it’s basically up to the filmmakers to bring it to life. It’s really the filmmaking that is the villain that’s chasing the characters. It’s all those insert extreme closeups of things that are hitting other things to create the chain reaction. So, it’s a joy for directors. Getting to bring that into the world, getting it in the camera, putting it in the edit in a way that brings Death to life is just so much fun.”

Adds co-director Zach Lipovsky,

“It’s really challenging, because the audience is participating in every ‘Final Destination’ movie. You’re sitting in the theater, you know what’s gonna happen… but you also know that there are gonna be surprises, and as a filmmaker, that’s really challenging, because—”

Cue Stein’s playful interjection:

“Spoiler alert—everyone dies.”

Critics Applaud the Film’s Emotional Depth and Visual Brilliance

DiscussingFilm hailed The Wild Robot as “an instant classic,” noting that DreamWorks Animation is continuing its “hot streak” with this film. Their review praises it as “undoubtedly one of the best animated films of the year,” solidifying its place as a standout cinematic experience for all ages.

Vulture’s review singles out the voice acting of Academy Award®-winner Lupita Nyong’o, who brings Roz, the titular robot, to life. “Nyong’o is a star who already has an Oscar (and should probably have a second), but she does some of her best, most challenging work here,” they write. Her performance, coupled with the film’s gorgeous visuals, transforms The Wild Robot into a heartwarming and unforgettable family movie.

Emotional Connection Resonates with Audiences

Parents and families alike are finding an emotional connection with The Wild Robot. Nerdist awarded the film a perfect five stars, with one reviewer sharing a deeply personal reflection: ““While I know this is not a reflection of its quality, on a personal level as a dad The Wild Robot leveled me. I was tearing up throughout the film. And when it ended I wanted to go straight home to hug my son. I’ve never seen any film better capture what its like to be a parent. This movie understands on an intimate level the challenges and rewards of having a kid,” they write.

A Feast for the Eyes

Visually, The Wild Robot stands shoulder-to-shoulder with recent animated hits. Total Film highlighted the movie’s stunning artistry, stating, “The most striking thing about The Wild Robot is how it continues mainstream animation’s ongoing visually inventive streak (the Spider-Verse movies, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem, Puss in Boots: The Last Wish). This CG-animated film has a sumptuous, painterly quality that magics brushstrokes out of pixels. It’s delightful to gawp at, and makes the ideal canvas for the tech-meets-nature story.”

A Star-Studded Cast Bringing the Wild to Life

The voice cast of The Wild Robot boasts an impressive roster of talent. Lupita Nyong’o leads as Roz, supported by Emmy and Golden Globe nominee Pedro Pascal as the clever fox Fink, Emmy winner Catherine O’Hara as Pinktail the opossum, and Oscar® nominee Bill Nighy as the wise goose Longneck.

“Twisters” Dominates Box Office with $80.5M, Becomes Third-Biggest Opening Weekend of 2024 in US and PH

Nature’s fury rocked the global box office as “Twisters” stormed into North American and Philippine theaters, claiming the No. 1 spot and nabbing the third-biggest opening of 2024 in the US with a sensational $80.5 million.

The Current-Day Chapter of a Classic

“Twisters,” the modern-day chapter to the 1996 hit disaster blockbuster, is directed by Oscar nominee Lee Isaac Chung. The film stars Glen Powell, Daisy Edgar-Jones, and Anthony Ramos as storm chasers who come together to try to predict, and possibly tame, one of nature’s most destructive forces.

A Hit with Critics and Moviegoers

The film has become a bona fide hit with both critics and audiences, earning a high score of 92% Audience Score and a certified 78% Fresh Rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

Empire Magazine commends the action and thrill that “Twisters” brings to audiences. “Simply put, ‘Twisters’ wears its Big Summer Movie heart on its sleeve. The score is rousing and righteous, the star power at times overwhelming to look at directly (to clarify, Powell walking through a downpour in a white T-shirt serves absolutely no narrative purpose). Powell being reunited with Maverick’s Joseph Kosinski — here on story-writing duty — feels like no coincidence; Cruise may be absent, but ‘Twisters’ effectively throws every other adrenaline-pumping cinematic tool in its bolted-down wheelhouse at you. At one point, our heroes are quite literally ushering crowds into a movie theatre for shelter. And you’d do well to join them.”

Screenrant highlights the magnetic chemistry between Powell and Edgar-Jones as Kate and Tyler, saying, “Edgar-Jones and Powell’s chemistry is a highlight of ‘Twisters,’ and their dynamic had me questioning my belief that not every action movie needs a romance between its leads.”

Entertainment Weekly praises the performances of the “Twisters” cast, noting, “There’s a ton of technobabble that you have to take on faith, but Jones and Powell do more than sell it; they make it compelling.”

The New York Times points out the timeliness of a film focused on the devastating effects of worsening extreme weather conditions, stating, “If we can’t fix climate change, can we fight it? And if so, who benefits? Who will take advantage of our weather in the future, and who will suffer from it? The apocalyptic element of ‘Twisters’ hits a little closer to home. The idea of a tornado as a monster is a metaphor. But the tornado itself, and the havoc it wreaks, is very, very literal.”

Catch the Storm of a Lifetime

Don’t miss out on the storm of a lifetime as “Twisters” is now showing in Philippine cinemas.
