One of the more recent entrees in the long and distinguished line of horror films with twist endings, it’s also one of the best. The Twist: The dead dude who’s been laying there the whole time is actually the killer and he’s, uh, well he’s not so much dead as just a psycho who’s been faking and he’s about to get raw all up in there. Oh, and also Bruce Willis is nuts because the dude he watched get shot to death at the airport was actually the grown-up version of himself sent from the future which let’s be honest would give anybody a decent case of neuroses. The Twist: Brad Pitt and his gang of eco-terrorist hippies are just harmless idiots and had nothing to do with the deadly disease outbreak that ruined the world of the future. And not smooshed to death like the Ronnie banging Sammie into oblivion on Jersey Shore sense but in the fat guy stepping on a baby kitten sense. The Twist: The only way for Donnie to save the world is to go back to the moment the jet engine crashed through his ceiling and allow himself to be smooshed to death. Also, that hot lawyer that Keanu spends the whole movie lusting after? Yeah, that’s actually his sister, but let’s not talk about that because… ugh. ![]() ![]() No, the twist is that after the devil is outwitted by Keanu Reeves of all people (and how shameful is that?) he basically just goes back in time and starts playing Keanu all over again, revealing that he can never really lose. The Twist: The twist isn’t that Al Pacino is actually the devil – you’d have to be a dullard not to realize that. I guess that explains why Jack Bauer thinks he’s just a creepy doctor and doesn’t just kill everyone and fly the ship back to Earth. The Twist: The city is actually a giant spaceship, the people are all abductees being experimented on, and every memory they have, even the “real” ones are completely made up. This is why you should never take adoption advice from Webster. The Twist: The creepy little girl they adopted is actually a thirty-something psychopath killer who naturally decides to get all stabby. Sure, it kind of makes their actions the rest of the movie seem completely unrealistic/unnecessary and the whole movie ceases to make any sense at all but they manage to make the arrogant French dude look like a gigantic fool and in the end isn’t that all that matters? The Twist: It’s revealed that Danny and the boys stole the egg before it even got to the museum, thus rendering all the ensuing hijinks pointless.
