The story
When Kimberly has a violent premonition of a highway pileup she blocks the freeway, keeping a few others meant to die, safe...Or are they? The survivors mysteriously start dying and it's up to Kimberly to stop it before she's next.
Final Destination 2 recap
On the anniversary of Flight 180, Kimberly Corman has a vision of a huge pile-up on Route 23, caused by logs falling from a truck. She blocks the on-ramp, and a police officer, Thomas Burke, stops to question her just before the crash happens. Those she held back include a lottery winner, a stoner, a mother and son, a pregnant woman, a teacher and a businesswoman. Survivors start to die, and Kimberly visits Clear Rivers, the last survivor of Flight 180, who has committed herself to a padded room. Clear takes them to Bludworth, who tells them only new life can defeat the design. They learn each of them was saved by an earlier survivor from Flight 180, and that the pregnant Isabella, whose baby was never meant to die on the road, could break the chain.
Final Destination 2 ending explained
Isabella gives birth, and the survivors believe the list is broken, until they realise she was never meant to die at all. Clear dies in an explosion. Kimberly drowns herself in a lake to cheat Death and Burke revives her, which counts as her death. Later, at a barbecue, Brian Gibbons, a man earlier saved from a van by a survivor, is killed by an exploding grill.
