From the creator of the Final Destination franchise comes a new,
twisted tale of death in “
The Final Wish.”
Following the passing of his father, Aaron returns home to his
devastated mother and to confront his past demons. Sifting through
his father’s belongings, he stumbles upon an urn which is far more
than it seems.
Coming to movie theaters nationwide for one night on January 24,
“The Final Wish” event will include a special
introduction by Lin Shaye along with a pre-taped
Q&A from Screamfest Horror Film Festival with actors
Lin Shaye (Insidious, The Grudge), Michael
Welch (The Twilight Saga), Tony Todd
(Candyman, Final Destination) and Melissa Bolona
(The Hurricane Heist), director Timothy Woodward
Jr. (Hickok, Gangster Land) and Final Destination creator
Jeffrey Reddick.
Tickets for “The Final Wish” can be
purchased beginning December 14 at www.FathomEvents.com and

Fathom Events and Cinedigm will screen “The Final
Wish” in movie theaters nationwide on Thursday, January 24
at 7:30 p.m. local time. For a complete list of theater locations,

“The Final Wish” follows Aaron (Welch), a
consummate under achiever, who returns home to his devastated
mother (Shaye) following the passing of his father. Among his
father’s antiques he comes across an urn hiding a dark
secret. As his every wish begins coming true, Aaron starts to
believe there is something sinister behind his good fortune and the
price of his desire might just be his soul.
“There are so many horror stories that have ingrained themselves
into the psyche of society,” says Woodward Jr. “For me growing up
Final Destination was one of those stories and to work with the
creator of those films so closely was a dream come true. The cast
members also fully committed to their characters which helped us
tell a story we hope is both fresh and frightening.”
“The Final Wish” is based on a story by Final
Destination creator Jeffrey Reddick with
screenplay by Jeffrey Reddick, Jonathan
Doyle & William Halfon. Directed by
Timothy Woodward Jr., The Final
Wish was produced by
Timothy Woodward Jr., Lauren de
Normandie, Johnny Cleveland,
Jeffrey Reddick and Thommy
Hutson. Executive Producers include Matthew
Helderman, Luke Taylor, Joe
Listhaus, Patrick DePeters,
Arthur Wylie and Dale
Godboldo.
