r/FinalDestination

When I was 5 y.o. I’ve seen the third movie and especially I remembered the tanning bath scene. When I asked my mom about this she was like: “Uh, it’s just a bad low quality movie dont think about it honey”.
P.S. I’m the new one here, what’s these tags means? Thank you!

I’ve been trying to track down a specific TV-edited version of Final Destination 3, specifically the infamous tanning bed death scene.

In the theatrical and home media versions, the two characters enter the tanning beds completely nude. However, an alternate TV broadcast version exists where the scene was re-shot for television censorship. In this version, the characters are shown wearing bikinis instead, and there is reportedly alternate dialogue recorded to fit the changed context.

So far, only extremely short clips of this TV version have surfaced online, and they’re all in very poor quality. None of the clips include the alternate dialogue people mention, since they cut off too quickly.

There’s also another detail I’ve heard about involving the goggles melting into one character’s eyes. While this already happens in the theatrical version, multiple people claim the TV cut briefly shows her trying to pull the goggles off in more graphic detail than the normal release.

As of now, I haven’t been able to find:
• A full upload of the TV version
• The alternate dialogue
• Confirmation of the extended “goggles” shot

If anyone has recordings of old TV airings, remembers what channel/network it aired on, or has any clues on where this version might be archived, I’d massively appreciate the help.

Not only is this a problem with Final Destination, many other horror movies also do this. Genuinely, it's harder to make characters as douchy as Frankie, Hunt, or Isaac then it is to make actually nice characters. And if the characters *are* nice and act like genuine people, the movie becomes better and the deaths become much more impactful. But no, there has to be douchebag characters every where for no apparent reason?
