Final Destination - Watch Order: Story Timeline
For viewers interested in experiencing the franchise's events in chronological order, this watch order accounts for the prequel nature of Final Destination 5, which ends by directly leading into the original film's Flight 180 disaster. The films maintain their largely anthology structure, but this ordering reveals the connected timeline of Death's design.
Final Destination: Bloodlines shows events from both 1968 and the present, making its placement complex - we've positioned it at the end since its present-day storyline represents the franchise's latest chronological events, despite also having scenes from the earliest timeline point.
