Four directors, zero budget, infinite weirdness — this road-trip anthology goes places it absolutely shouldn't.
Underneath this nice sleazy-looking box art that has absolutely nothing to do with the films, comes this cool & bizarre little Horror/Thriller anthology thingy called Final Destinations, featuring 4 different macabre tales with "the road" being a general theme, as they all have some driving or vehicles involved in the stories. Playing out like the Twilight Zone or a "Tales From..." with plenty of black humor in the mix, they're all actually pretty interesting and quite well-made considering the small budgets I imagine the filmmakers were working with.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Northrop Davis later became a law professor specializing in entertainment law — presumably to sue himself for this.
This is basically what happened when '80s VHS culture ate a Twilight Zone episode and vomited it onto four different directors.
