'The Final Destination' vs 'Halloween II'... Tell Us, Who Will Win?
Tuesday, August 25, 2009

Get ready for the battle of the century as Death will be taking on Michael Myers at this weekend's box office as New Line Cinema's The Final Destination will be going head-to-head, mano-a-mano, toe-to-toe with Dimension Films' Halloween II. Both films have a huge fan base, both carry loads of death and destruction, both rock a solid R-rating and both films feature the return of a director familiar with the franchise. The only difference is that Rob Zombie's Halloween sequel is dark and uber violent, while David R. Ellis' Destination is a fun 3-D experience. So we're asking YOU, dear readers of Bloody Disgusting what film you plan on seeing THIS weekend (not next). Read on to enter our poll and battle other BD readers, and then check back on Friday to write your own reviews of both films to tell everyone on the site what you thought!

Which film are you going to see first this weekend?

FInal Destination 100%. Halloween SUCKED ASS. SUCKED DONKEYBALLS. The fans here of that film astound me. Halloween 2 looks just as crappy

For some reason i think H2 will win.

Halloween will kill at the box-office. Final Destination is as good as dead.

This is like pitting crap against shit. The lesser of two evils would be Halloween 2(at least Zombie takes horror seriously). The CM for The Final Destination look horrible. It looks like one of the cheesiest horror flicks to come out in the recent years.

I want to see both, but I only have enough money to see one this weekend and I guess I'll go with Halloween 2.

Keep in mind FD4 has 3D ticket prices to its advantage.

Gotta go with Halloween 2. Final Destination has put asses in the seats before and probably will still, but H2 is a newer series and has the crowds of Zombie fans, Halloween remake fans, and original Halloween fans behind it.

I voted Halloween 2 BUT I am gunna see BOTH opening night. I CAN'T WAIT!

I am seeing 'Final Destination' only because my two friends and I are going to get shitfaced while we see it. That way to us, it's good.

Both are big losers. WHY? Because they are going to have to split the moviegoers cash this weekend. If they opened up on different days they would each make more money. But, Halloween will make more money opening week and in the end. It's the bigger franchise and most well known of the two.

i'm going to see halloween first, but only because i think it will be worse. i think FD4 will at least be a fun fast ride. it's only 82 min. i don't think halloween will be awful, but i want to see it first. no judgement.

Opening Weekend Prediction HALLOWEEN: $20-30 Million FD4: $15 Million


halloweenfan
6:35pm, August 25, 2009

I mean FD4 $10 MILLION

In the grand scheme of things, neither will win. I have a feeling that Inglourious Basterds is gonna take #1 again. However, between the two above films, Halloween 2 will do much better then Final Destination.

"HALLOWEEN 2" because a fairly popular director made it, because it has an actual plot, because it has good actors in it...anyway...they both play on a week-end...you could go see "Halloween 2" with your buddies on Friday and "Final Destination" with your Girl on Saturday. I might just do that...even though I only liked the first "Destination".

i'm seeing BOTH on FRIDAY. i think it's going to be almost a tie. TOO close to say one is the WINNER over the other.

THE FINAL DESTINATION, guys, THE FINAL DESTINATION...

Final Destination Friday. Will be seeing H2 sometime next week.

and just a reminder (we all know) that it was FD4's ridiculous decision to feel "compelled" to open (after changing release dates 3 or 4 different times!!) on the same day as H2's original and unmoving release date of Aug.28th. just sayin'.

I think Halloween is definetly going to win. This movie really does look great. I also think its in more theatres, because where I am from, Final Destination isnt appearing in any of the theatres.
