Andy Kewzer is a character in the film The Final Destination. He is an auto mechanic and a survivor of the McKinley Speedway crash. He is also the boyfriend of Nadia Monroy.
Biography
Andy lives in Indianapolis, Indiana, and works as a mechanic at Grandstate Customs. He is in a relationship with a woman named Nadia Monroy and is of Dutch descent.
The Final Destination
Andy at the racetrack.
Andy visits the McKinley Speedway with Nadia to watch the race. He asks Hunt Wynorski if Nadia can use his binoculars to watch the race, and Hunt tries to explain that they're not binoculars at all, but Nadia takes them and drinks from them. Nadia then tells him she can't see the race because of a couple standing in front of them, and Andy yells, "down in front asshole", prompting them to sit. Nadia becomes happy, and they share a kiss. After Nick O'Bannon has a premonition that a deadly car crash will occur, he begins to panic. Andy asks what his problem is, and when Nick accidentally bumps into him, they begin to argue. Nick throws a bag at Andy's face and runs away with several others. Andy follows them to the parking lot, and seconds later, the crash occurs just as Nick predicted. Shortly after, Andy witnesses Nadia's death with the other survivors after a stray tire flies out from the stadium and obliterates her head.
Days later, Andy attends a memorial service at the Speedway for the victims and breaks into tears while looking at a photo of Nadia.
Later, Nick, Lori Milligan, and George Lanter go to Grandstate Customs to tell Andy that Death is still after the survivors, and he is possibly next. Andy asks if they are serious, before a mechanic says that Andy must take them outside. Outside, Andy tells them he is trying to put his life back together after Nadia's death. George tells him about how years ago he killed his wife and daughter while driving under the influence, and has been trying to do the same ever since.
Andy is the fourth survivor of McKinley Speedway to die.
Death
Andy, diced by the fence.
Inside the auto repair shop, a man spits inside a can and leaves it on top of a metal crate. While Andy is outside talking to Nick, George, and Lori. The can falls over and the spit lands on a winch, causing it to malfunction, which releases the rope and sends a van straight towards Andy, almost crushing him into a fence. However, due to the weight of the van pulling against the rope from the winch, the winch is pulled out of its socket and sent spiraling through the air, hitting the top of a CO2 tank. As Andy turns around, the tank hits him in his torso and knocks him into the fence, slicing him into pieces.
Signs/Clues
Andy Kewzer Death Scene - The Final Destination (Premonição 4) HD
- Nick has a vision of a death involving spinning tires, a winch, and a flying tank.
- Before nearly being hit by the van, Andy says, "If I was meant to die, it would've happened by now."
- Before the group arrives at the garage, there is a car that looks like Carter Horton's car.
- Before his death, in the garage, you can see a sign saying "DANGER" and below it, you can see 2 CO2 tanks.
- At the beginning of the movie, a diagonal wire fence is in front of Andy and the spectators at the speedway.
- Before Nick and Lori arrive, Andy is almost killed twice by the van he is repairing; when suddenly it is released when Lori backs into it, the van almost crushes him. Minutes later, this same van is disconnected and almost crushes Andy against the fence, but the chain stops.
- This character shares the same name as Andy's, a fast-food restaurant in Final Destination 3, where Frankie Cheeks was killed.
- The van that almost crushed Andy had "Brand X" written on it. Andy's torso resembled an X when it's diced.
- "Brand X" also appeared on Car 6, which was one of the main instigators of the crash that should have killed Andy.
- When Nick had a vision involving Andy's death, at the end of the vision, it shows "It's Here".

Trivia
Andy's death being referenced in Final Destination 5's opening credits.
- Andy is referenced in the opening credits of Final Destination 5 by a propane tank breaking the screen.
- The build-up to Andy's death is longer in the script, and the viewer would have had more of an opportunity to get to know the character and realize how much he's changed.
- An omitted moment from the scene where Nick and Lori investigate the racetrack contains them finding Nadia's iPod, and hearing it play part of a song before it stops working. In Andy's death scene, the iPod is handed back to him, and later on another mechanic would turn on the radio, playing the same song ("Raindrops Keep Fallin' On My Head" by BJ Thomas) as a sort of sign as it was evidently the last song Nadia would have heard if she had died at the track (not outside) and now this is the last song Andy will hear.
- In two deleted scenes, Andy has a different death, in both Nick's premonition and his actual death. In the first premonition scene, he attempts to run towards the exit, but the racecar that had crashed into the grandstands explodes, setting Andy alight. He screams as he burns to death, his entire body engulfed in flames. In the other deleted scene, when the CO2 tank comes to him, he isn't diced. Instead, when the tank falls, it takes a piece out of him, making his spinal column visible.
- In the script of The Final Destination, he is described as: ANDY KEWZER, 43, A GEARHEAD in a Mid-West Customs jacket. He has the face and body of a Hell's Angel, but the nonthreatening voice of Mike Tyson.
