The Film with the most bizarre ending.
« on: June 21, 2015, 12:18:11 AM »

I just watched the film 'Enemy' with Jake Gillenhall, its a kind of tense drama where a guy meets a guy who's his double, the films ending is completely weird and unexpected, it kinda freaked me out, I wont tell as some may want to watch it.
I just read some blog (obtained from imdb) by this guy who reckons to have an explanation but its like reading a phd thesis ffs

Any other films with very freaky endings out there?

wasnt Shutter Island a nominee?

Predestination has a weird ending. Although is pretty weird all way through. As id read the original Robert Heinlen story it was based on I was prepared. My daughter and son were just weirded out

I'm a big David Lynch fan and I have to say some of his films are head-scratchers.

I saw a movie at the Theater this year and it just came out on Blu Ray ( think it's called) The Kingsmen, sort of like a James Bond movie, typical save the world story, but at the end he saves a princess from a prison cell and they zoom in on her a$$ and she told him he could do her from behind for saving her.

Totally unexpected...... (i'd call that a most bizarre ending)

Wow, that's some classy filmmaking.  :P


Still Alice had a bizarre ending in that it didn't really have one, just trailed off. Most disappointing. The book was the same way, but I was sure they'd change the ending for the movie. Sadly, no.

Maybe they were afraid of the ratings if they zoomed in on her butt and...

"Grease" was a straightforward high school rock & roll musical until the Ford De Luxe soared into flight at the end....

EH??

so.. was it actually a time travel/sci fi fantasy after all then?

Or what?

It was a strange film. Most of it had the feel of an adolescent action film. But bits like that sort of made it too adult oriented.

Easy Rider is in that list of classic films I've never got round to seeing. I think catching up on all my unseen classic films will be a retirement project one day.

Late 60's films immediately came to mind for me. I think many were breaking away from formulaic happy endings.

Certain Beatle-esque ones can definitely qualify: The Magic Christian, Wonderwall, How I won the War, etc.

There could be a long list made from that era.

Primal Fear has the best movie ending ever, in my opinion. It completely caught me off guard when I watched it 'way back when.
