Flight 666 (2018)

 

Flight 666 is the story of ghosts who don’t care if they traumatize a plane full of people to get back at the serial killer who murdered them.  Is there any reason they couldn’t have gotten this guy on the ground? If they can travel in a plane, they sure as hell have powers that could allow them to exact revenge at a time other than when he’s with a large group of innocent people.

There is a storm following the plane, which I guess is of the ghosts making. But then the ghosts themselves start popping up on the wing or in the bathroom.  We’ve got one guy doing a low rent version of William Shatner’s famous Twilight Zone, “There’s a man on the wing of the plane” episode.  There is no comparison.

Then we’ve got a stewardess with bad interpersonal skills, a woman who is hearing messages from the ghosts, a guy who didn’t bring his medication in his carry on eve though it seems to something that will keep him from panicking on an airplane, and an air Marshall who shoves a handful of random pills down the guys throat when he freaks the hell out.

So many ridiculous things and so little space in the plane.  It’s not good.


Ridiculous dialogue:

Listen up! I need everyone to keep their head on their shoulders! - Air Marshall

Air Marshall - Do you have anything to calm him down?
Stewardess - Yes but we’ve never given it to someone.

Pilot 1- Everything okay back there?
Plot 2 — Yeah, Alice was just checking in
What is ridiculous about this is that Pilot 2 didn’t have a headset on so Pilot one could hear both sides of the conversation.
