Hello and welcome to the evolution of horror podcast. My name is Mike Munzer. As ever, I am your host. Now, in this podcast,

usually we look back at the history and the evolution of the horror genre, one subgenre at a time.

Our last season, focusing on the Nature Bites Back subgenre, ended a few months ago. And we'll be back in the

summer for our next season,

focusing on man-made monsters. That's going to be kicking off in July 2025. But this week, we've got something a little bit special for you because it's Final Destination Week.

The new Final Destination movie, that's called Final Destination Bloodlines, is out this week in cinemas everywhere.

And so, to celebrate that, I'm going to be releasing some episodes from the Patreon back catalogue.

Two years ago, in 2023, I did a Final Destination Retrospective, where I discussed in depth all five final destination movies with

various brilliant guests. So I thought to celebrate the release of the new movie, I would drop

these episodes throughout the week. So every day this week, you're going to hear a new episode

in our final destination retrospective. You're also

going to hear the interview that I did a couple of years ago with the Final Destination creator

Jeffrey Reddick. That's going to be dropping later this week as well. And then we're going to finish

with a brand new episode on Friday discussing Final Destination bloodlines inerific detail. So all of that's to come.

So here comes part one. I was joined back in 2023 by Friend of the Pod and 90s horror

aficionado Joshua Tonks to discuss Final Destination from 2000 2000 in spoilerific detail.

Enjoy.

I got this feeling.

It's a weird feeling.

A cabin starts to shake, right?

And the left side blows up, and then the whole plane just explodes.

The plane gets exploded. It's not a joke. It's not a joke plane's getting explode.
