Craig Perry is a producer of the Final Destination franchise. He used to partner with fellow producer Warren Zide at Zide/Perry Productions before its split around 2009–2010 and is the founder and current president of Practical Pictures. He was an advocate for including gorier death scenes in the films. Due to his involvement in the franchise as the only producer to have returned for the production of all seven movies, and the extensive repertoire and experience he has accumulated with their behind-the-scenes processes over the years, he has been nicknamed “The Godfather of Final Destination.”[1]
