Films with twists you don't see coming
What's your best? I love a good twist that keeps the film unpredictable

"Films with twists you don't see coming" - aka, The Spoilers Thread
Probably best to keep out of this thread if you like films with twists!

The Others was a pretty good twist I thought. As was Les Diaboliques.
It wasn't a good film overall but the twist in the middle of Breaking Dawn part 2 was very well done. |

Skeleton Key! I know .... I'm slow - everyone else I knew got it within half an hour!
Loved the twist in The Last Seduction. |

There is a film that recently came out called Now You See It. Its a film about magicians. Has THE BEST twist ever!! Like me, at first you'll think its ridiculous and implausible, but if you're really smart and don't have to watch it again to understand, then VOILA

I'm also a bit of a sucker for a good twist. Anyway here are my 2 offerings:
Whatever Happened To Baby Jane The Ipcress File. Although the twist occurs before the end of the film it still surprised me when I first saw it as a 16 year old. |

I was annoyed at myself for not spotting The Sixth Sense twist.

Memento? I liked the twist in the most recent Final Destination film.

I was watching a gruesome horror film with a horde of murderous zombies killing everyone in their path. Then suddenly a Chubby Checker record came onto the soundtrack and the zombies broke into a 60s dancestep.
Do I win £5? |

Same first time I saw The Shawshank Redemption and The Green Mile.I had heard there were twists but didn't spot them until they were revealed. I must be pretty naive! |

I'm going to say Fight Club but if you're paying attention, there are several clues throughout. I saw it again recently, it's surprising how coherent the film is, and how many hints there are to the twist. I was kicking myself for having missed some of them.
