So a few days ago I wrote about watching some of the classic Final Destination movies.
And tonight I thought I’d treat myself by taking myself on a date to watch the new Final Destination Bloodlines…
Let me tell you. It was equal bits cheesy and great all wrapped into one.
The thing with these types of movies is that yes they may be predictable and the characters easily guessed in terms of the roles they play…
But there is equally a reason behind why such cult fanbases emerge for the genre of these types of films.
Yeah it’s B rated horror thriller trash. But it’s my kind of trash and to be honest it’s a treasure in and of itself…
They’re easily predictible.
They always show up and are consistent throughout their genre and they always keep you guessing.
That is why from a writers POV – I love these films.
If you can show up every day.
Show your imperfections.
And show your audience your true character.
You will always win.
And so it is with these types of films and how it should be with your work.
That is it.
Follow this “pattern” and your audience will love you for it.
