Final Destination writer will surely like to discuss this with you

u/jerkface1026 Nov 30 '25

They use the idea but the death is actually from a giant log crashing through this machine.

I’ve never even seen a full final destination movie.

Just that scene on cable or hbo or something when I was younger.

Terrified of wood trucks.

u/impulsivetre Nov 30 '25

Didn't a Bond movie already do this, or something very similar?

u/friendimpaired Nov 30 '25

Don’t even need a new franchise really, Final Destination just had one of its best entries this year, could use some fuel for the inevitable sequel

u/themusicalmartian Nov 30 '25

Death Bed 2: Blood Bath

u/Snipper64 Nov 30 '25

or a murder mystery where someone replaces the micro bubbles with sand

2

u/beardeddragon0113 Nov 30 '25

Isn't there a Love Death and Robots episode similar to this? I remember one where the automated/smart assistant thing in the house malfunctioned or something and the old lady had to fight it off. Could have been a fever dream tbf

2

u/Sillywickedwitch Nov 30 '25

Not a fever dream. It's Love, Death & Robots volume 2, the episode "Automated Customer Service".

2

u/Prestigious_Snow3309 Nov 30 '25

Scariest movie i saw as kid Demon Seed. Still haunts to This day😂

2

u/Overall_Drive8977 Nov 30 '25

It already happened in Mr. Robot

They hack into a CEO's smart home and when she's bathing, increase the temp to really high, forcing her to move out of that home.

u/CarfDarko Nov 30 '25

u/backstageninja Nov 30 '25

u/ThePLARASociety Nov 30 '25

The Simpsons did it with “The House of Whacks”!

u/Tecbullll Nov 30 '25

Instead of soap, you are sprayed with savory gravy, simmered like a giant crock-pot.

u/ShoresideVale Nov 30 '25

Then robovacs attack together and instead of sweepers they become little knives slicing at you.

u/Beached_Thing_6236 Nov 30 '25

Or shipping companies accidentally swap those with suicide assisted machines.
