Haunting movie endings?

[chainsaw midget]

Fallen had a really nice ending. 

"I wanna tell you about the time I almost died."

I found OPEN WATER's ending more irritating than "haunting", as it was so inevitable.

a lot of people find the film irritating full stop! feel like I'm in a minority for liking it. it's quite a gruelling watch but it works for me. - can't help being slightly inevitable seeing as it's a true story

THE USUAL SUSPECTS' ending haunted Kevin Spacey's career more than anything else. "He was a creepy duplicitous predator the WHOLE TIME.......!"      A shame, he was one of my favorite actors...

yeah right. and Bryan Singer too... typical as it's my favourite movie ever. bloody real life!

Call  me vapid but as a teenager I was smitten with the ending of Sid and Nancy, and it'd give me something of a frisson, I admit. Not now, but back then.

Real life is bloody problematic, ennit? So many of my childhood heroes turn out to be real arseholes. Spacey, David Mamet, Frank Miller...... even John Cleese has been a little bit of a dick the past couple years. Thar's only a short list. I even thought H.P. Lovecraft was a super cool dude based only on reading "Call of Cthulhu" and watching the Stuart Gordon movies. This is why Death of the Author needed to be a Thing, yo.

there are very few actors where the more you find out about them offscreen the more good things you hear.
Keanu Reeves seems to be an exception. apparently he has done a lot of lowkey charitable and generous things and is a nice guy

LISA AND THE DEVIL (1973)
After Lisa somehow gets involved in an old gothic castle filled with dead bodies and ghosts, at the end Lisa emerges into the sunlit , hops a jet-which ends up empty except for some dead bodies, with Satan (Telly Savalas!) as the pilot! It just seemed like a whole different movie at the end! All that heavy, dreamy, brooding atmosphere and then just POW! It's 1973!

Silent Hill has one of those endings too with a split reality at the end: the husband in one reality and his wife and daughter in the other.

There is something about the ending of the 1970s Solaris that gives me a chilly feeling. (It's far less approachable than the 2000s Hollywood version, but rewards one more for staying with it.)

I found a lot out about Peter Sellers - my fave comedian in things like The Goons and as Inspector Clouseau - that made me wonder why I liked him in the first place as he was something of a monster in private, sadly.

I find it easier to accept and overlook that reputation in someone like Sellars... who's been dead for decades and is no longer an actual threat to anyone! I enjoy watching Klaus Kinski performances even though that dude was a legit menace to all those around him.......
