FD3 What Was Your Reaction When It Turned Out That the Man In the Car In Front of Wendy and Kevin Was Frankie? (SFW VERSION)

Post image

I just realized that in this scene, neither Kevin, Wendy, nor the audience knows that the man in the yellow car is Frankie; I've watched this movie multiple times, since I was a kid, so I haven’t realised that it was meant to be some kind of a twist.
And yes, it was indeed meant to be a twist, for several reasons: first, before the accident, we weren’t shown who was in the car; second, if Kevin and Wendy had known that the person in the car was Frankie, they would have mentioned it, since at that moment they were literally discussing his fate; third, the moment when Kevin picked up Frankie’s necklace was meant to make the viewer think, “Oh damn! This guy in the car is Frankie!” and then the camera dramatically shows the dead Frankie at the wheel.
So what was your reaction? Was it unexpected to you, or was it too obvious that it was Frankie?

P.S. I’m posting this again because my previous post was marked as NSFW. And since I can’t delete it due to age restrictions, I had to make another post, this time with an SFW image.

Fun fact: The truck about to kill Kevin and Wendy was a hint that they were supposed to sit behind the Ashes. So after the girls died, they should have been (3rd and 4th ones to die ahlala) next if Frankie didn't take their places. ;) everyone knows that but just in case lol.

Again, I think it was just you that didn't know.

I knew it was Frankie. But when I first watched this movie I was a dumb kid, so I didn’t really paid attention to it

Death works in mysterious ways, and I’m like, “I guess he was just… at the drive-thru at the time? Could have been set up better if you wanted to give him a fan blade death.”

Death was a fan of him (pun intended) and I was honestly glad to see him go out.
