Final Destination 4 is a 2009 American 3D supernatural horror film written by Eric Bress and directed by David R. Ellis, both of whom also worked on Final Destination 2. Released on August 28, 2009, it is the fourth installment of the Final Destination film series, and the first to be shot in HD 3D. It is currently the highest-grossing Final Destination film, earning $186 million worldwide but also received the worst critical reception of the franchise. It was followed by Final Destination 5 (2011).
This was one of the last films to be theatrically released by New Line Cinema until it was merged with its sister studio Warner Bros.
Three years after the events of the third film, College student Nick O'Bannon attends a race at the McKinley Speedway with his girlfriend Lori Milligan and their friends; Hunt Wynorski and Janet Cunningham when he suddenly has a premonition of a terrible accident that sends debris into the stadium, killing several people and causing the stadium to collapse. In his panic, Nick inadvertently starts an argument with Andy Kewzer. He and his girlfriend Nadia Monroy, racist Carter Daniels, who demands his wife stay as he chases them out of the stadium, along with mother Samantha Lane also exit the stadium followed by security guard George Lanter. When the accident occurs, George prevents Carter from going in after his wife and a scuffle ensues. As she is yelling at the group, Nadia is suddenly decapitated by a tire flying out of the stadium.
