Yes, but they had eluded Death in the first place and it was out to get them...and occasionally by analyzing the signs people are able to temporarily escape. At least the main characters were.

I don't see how that movie concept applies here:

Q = almost gets hit by a car when going a different route
Them = escape a disaster AND have Death hunting them

Word. If Death is hunting you, then peace be with you. - douses with holy water. -
