Viewers have unsettling Final Destination experience after life imitates art
To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Remember the Final Destination scene where a cinema ceiling fell? No? That's because it happened in real life when theatre attendees were watching the sixth film on the big screen. Final Destination: Bloodlines was released earlier this month, following Stefani (Kaitlyn Santa Juana) as she uncovers a deadly family secret that threatens all of their lives. It marked the final film appearance of the late genre icon Tony Todd, who had played the mysterious William Bludworth throughout the franchise. But cinemagoers in Argentina got an impromptu 4DX experience when, during a screening of the film, the theatre's ceiling began collapsing. The incident occurred around 9pm on May 19 at Cinema Ocho in La Plata, Buenos Aires, reports InfoBae. Attendee Fiamma Villaverde told the publication that she went to see the film as part of her 29th birthday celebrations, but did not expect to become immersed in it quite so much. 'There was a really loud noise. At first, we thought it was part of the movie because we were so absorbed, but then a huge piece fell on me,' she recalled. Around 40 attendees found their screening disrupted as the ceiling in screen 4 began to fall down, with Fiamma reportedly being struck by debris, explaining, 'It didn't hit their head because they were leaning slightly over the armrest.' She was allegedly struck in the shoulder, back, knee, and ankle, and sustained bruising from the accident. Video shared on social media shows a large hole in the ceiling of the cinema, with debris on the floor and in the aisles. 'I asked for my ticket money back,' Fiamma, who attended the film with their 11-year-old daughter, continued. She claimed: 'While I was waiting, the theatre manager came to talk to me. He asked, 'How do you want to fix this?' I got angry: 'How do I want to fix this? I'm going to file a complaint. Just imagine if they hit my daughter in the head! They're irresponsible!'' The film has proved a hit for the franchise, grossing a whopping $187.1 million (£138 million) worldwide so far, making it the highest-grossing installment of the franchise. More Trending Speaking to Metro ahead of the release, directors Adam Stein and Zach Lipovsky shed light on how they plotted those 'staggeringly grisly', intricate death scenes, sparked from random freak occurrences. 'From the very beginning, we call it, 'What can we ruin for people?' so that after you see this movie, for the rest of your life, you'll never be able to look at a cup filled with ice in the same way, or a garbage disposal truck, or hear the song Shout without thinking of this movie,' Adam teased. 'That was a big conversation. I think that's the legacy of Final Destination: that it takes potential anxieties and brings them to life in a way that ruins them for people forever. 'We always wanted to create a movie that you had to watch through your fingers, but while you were also smiling. Getting that tone balance right was very tricky.' Got a story?
