I know Bad Movies have plenty of these; which ones are notable in your memory ?
-Jimmybob
The ending of Phenomena... You know I never really saw her being the big hero until it happened :P
The scene where that movie gets kill by the snapping turtle in Frogs, where the shark blows up in Jaws: The Revenge, where the kid says "Don't f--k with me" in Good Son, where the actor makes the telephone ringing noise in Monster A Go-Go, the video clip Andrew has in the Raindbow Sprite movie review... I could go on, but why keep bringing up such weird or painful memories?

Because it is memories like these that bring people closer together.
And can someone explain to me how at the end of THE LIFT (1983), the elevator wires come to life and snag the boss guy's neck? I never understood why the protagonists just leave after their superior is hanged...

Tank Girl has saved the girl from getting raped and has a hostage. So, naturally, she...does a song and dance number!!!! :buggedout:
Everything Adam Sandler says and does.
Hook.
Peter Pan is a fat American. Huh?!?!?!
In "Quest for the Mighty Sword", Ator and his sidekick are stopped by two guards who are swinging swords, yet they don't attempt to advance onto Ator. Out of nowhere, and for no reason a dart gun magically appears on Ator's forearm, then he shoots and kills two guards.
Good god...way too many to cover here. Hard Rock Zombies comes to mind. One in paricular is a huge montage of random crap thrown together while the lead character is writing a bass line to raise the dead. This is from my review of the film...describing scene by scene...
Quote1.) Shot of werewolf in wheelchair
2.) Shot of old lady in wheelchair
3.) Shot of Chuck approaching lady in wheelchair
4.) Shot of black and white photos of violent acts
5.) Shot of Tommy and Robby laying on benches. Tommy has blood on his face and isn't moving
6.) Shot of black and white photos again
7.) Shot of old woman and Chuck hanging out
8.) Shot of Tommy scaring Robby
9.) Shot of Chuck looking at Bimbo who is walking up the stairs
10.) Shot of Jesse playing bass
11.) Shot of pickled hand in jar moving
12.) Shot of tarantula
Thats sadly only half of the montage.
At the end of Showdown at Area 51, there's this HUGE fleet of alien ships set to invade earth. But the earthlings destroy some thingie that was supposed to release some gas on the planet, so even though the alien fleet is plenty big enough to destroy earth 10 times over without the help of any gas, they just immediately turn around and leave.
The entire film, The Forbidden Zone. From start to finish I was going WTF.
EXECUTIONER 2: The hero stuffs a live hand grenade into the panties a fellow's wearing on his head. Giant stock footage explosion!
WTF..?
In The Thing when that dudes head comes off, grows legs and goes walkies!!!!
The whole of The Avengers film
The end of "Mausoleum". Did it mean something, did I miss something, or was it just some great big F*CK YOU to the audience?

No, I'm being serious it actually did happen. :wink:
The He-Man movie, Masters of the Universe.
Basically, He-Man defeated everyone with the pecs. Basically. Oh yeah, and he has a sword. And a gun. And can travel through dimensions with a synthesizer. And he can fly.
Oh, that movie was a barrel of fun.
Grease 2 - Reproduction..yeah, this song.. :bluesad:

Man, what were they thinking ? :thumbdown:
The ending of The Mist (2007)
Shark Attack 3, when John Barrowman tells the girl what he wants to do because he's so "wired".
Apparently he said it as a joke, too, so WTF did they put it in the movie? :buggedout:
Pretty much all of Naked Lunch.
In The Brood when the dudes wife has an external womb, and then she bites into it to release the baby.
I wonder what Cronenbergs childhood was like...
Even when I watched the review of this movie, I felt the same way the reviewer did at these two specific scenes of The Good Son. The scenes I refer to is when Henry says, "Hey Mark, don't f**k with me" or when the mother slaps Mark and then hugs him a split second later. I mean really, what the heck?!
Transmorphers - the entire movie really. A few choice moments:
Man is talking to woman, suddenly woman flies off, like she's wearing a jet pack or something. No, like she's a magical flying fairy. Nobody had jet packs, she certainly wasn't wearing one.
Guys are fighting robots, one guy tosses his earring at them. Next scene the robots are gone. ???
Guy is having a meeting with his macho soldiers. Woman walks in and starts spouting poetry.
Troops are talking to the general - she responds with some of the worst acting imaginable - just read it off the cue cards and enunciate clearly.
Huge robot transforms into a cannon - then fires a wimpy little special effect at the people.
Half the time there's no muzzle flash or sound of any sort when people fire their guns. It's truly comical.
The Ending Of The Movie BOTTOM FEEDER
While I understood the film, I found myself mouthing WTF several times will watching Repo! The Genetic Opera. Mostly because all the characters neatly tied into each other some how. In fact too neatly. However I will say that the scene where Paris Hilton's face falls off filled me with glee.
Begotten
still have no clue what this movie is about ???
The Scene In The Movie THE RING When Brian Cox Electrocutes Himself In His Bathtub!

I got a DVD off Netflix that had interviews with people that worked with D.C., Michael Ironside had a story about how he made the mistake of asking David what was on his mind, and David went into some detailed description of a dream he had the night before that sounded weirder than anything he's put on film. Michael said he never made the mistaking of asking that again.
The Nostalgic Critc just did this Top 11 MindF**K Moments and just about all of them are WTF moments for me. The biggest one was that movie about the Raggy Ann or something doll from the 70s. Is it just me or did my mind melt or fry during that moment when I was watching it? Oh well, It's best to witness the madness to understand.
The Avengers... a family film!!!!
One of the henchmen falls down and hits a wall, "Oh, F**k" he cries.
IN A FAMILY FILM!!!!
For some bizarre reason I felt really embarrassed and cringed.

Classic movie...yeah when Hitler just suddenly morphs and starts yelling in German, and then the midget nazi starts eating itself in between scenes to classical music. I bought this movie for $2 @ walmart...best $2 ever spent.
The hilarious sequence in Fanny And Alexander where one of the adults takes off his trousers, runs up and downstairs and starts farting loudly to entertain the children. With his last rear cannon blast, he blows the candles out. :teddyr:
I never knew that Ingmar Bergman had a sense of humor until I saw that scene. :bouncegiggle:
Phantasm - all four really but in particular, in the first one when The Tall Man's severed finger turns into a Sesame Street style giant fly. There are many others in thise movies, but that would mean I would have to watch them again to get them all, and I am not quite ready for that yet.
The end of BTTF Part 3
He wants to get rid of the DeLorean because time travel is dangerous, then builds a time travelling steam engine ?
Cars bad, trains good ?
One that comes to mind is the end of Takashi Miike's Dead or Alive. Dead or Alive is kind of a dark and gritty, but sometimes quirky Yakuza movie. I wouldn't go so far to call it realism, but it certainly grounds itself in the real world.
***Spoiler***
That is until the final confrontation between the gangster and the detective, when the gangster acknowledges: "Here comes the last scene..."
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UnKS1vpTOSk (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UnKS1vpTOSk)
SPOILERS***Althought, considering the movie is an Asylum picture I really shouldn't be complaining.
The end of Alien vs Hunter, their straight to DVD rip off of AVP.
Ready..Ok.
So the last shot of the movie is of the Hunter taking of his mask and revealing that he's human. He talks to his buddy on the radio mentioning that this planet that "was of the beaten path" had been completelt terraformed.
So this wasn't Earth? Who were the people then? Descendents of colonists? Did life super-evolve on this new planet and perfectly match that of Earth? Why did the hunter knowingly kill some of the people-essentially commiting murder. IT MADE NO SENSE!!
I'm not posting this in the "scenes that ruined a movie" thread becasue it wasn't the best film to start out with.
All the Aliens vs. Predator movies,two of the greatest icons on modern horror/action deserved a better film
Another WTF moment would be the scene where a pregnant woman begins to lick her unborn baby in The Brood
(http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2344/2052318304_01c135ac43.jpg?v=0)
Timecrimes. Any of it, all of it. WTF in a good way, but still....
Currently, at this very moment, I am watching "Zontar the thing from Venus". Apparently, zontar is a lobster with wings....it's pretty WTF.
The Simpsons Movie where Bart skateboards down the street naked...and we see everything.
WTF doesn't even begin to describe how wrong that was. I just feel so sorry for the people who had to animate that sequence.
Bad Biology - When that penis monster births itself out of the blond chick !
:bluesad:
I never want to see that again !
Terror Firmer: two minutes into the movie when the woman gets "de-fetused"
How about in THE RETURN OF THE KING, when Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli are making their way thru the Paths of the Dead, and they almost get swept away . . . . by an AVALANCHE OF SKULLS???? Where the heck was THAT in the books??
The end of Feast 3...but does it count when the writer and/or director did it on purpose?

The film's weak.
Trust me, you wouldn't want to waste your money. Go watch Frankenhooker again.
no s**t...i still want to give it a go though.
The ending of John Carpenter's In The Mouth Of Madness. :question:
The Princess Diana-like Paris tunnel crash in Ronin ~ a black Mercedes hits the tunnel wall and explodes. :question:
In The Granny, when all her dead relatives come back, including her decayed husband whom she tries to make out with.
Riding the Bullet, when the one guy is in the tub and all the paintings begin to chant, "Cut! Cut! Cut!"
The entire movie of Dumplings.
The entire Miike segment of 3 Extremes.
The flashback sequences and the ending to Sleepaway Camp.
All the artsy nuances to Godzilla vs. Hedorah.
Fast Company: Lonnie takes out an airplane with a Top Fuel dragster. It tops an earlier scene where a woman gets automotive oil additives poured on her boobies. . .
Takashi Miike's Dead or Alive. This movie defines the WTF moment better than any I've seen.
Saw it in the theater with no idea what its about. The whole movie is played straight as a Yakuza thriller, the last 2 minutes were just crazy.
Well I thought the use of the same shark attack scene over and over again in Shark Swarm really was a WTF moment, especially since some of the attacks were at night and when the camera turned to the sharks, it was always daylight.
The movie " Invasion of the Neptune Men " had plenty of WTF moments but this one takes the cake for me.

<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oUkVYauZWHg">MST3000!</a>
I could only find the MST3000 clip but I can`t imagine that the original version of the movie would clear up why this scene was used.

I had a similar experience with Miike's Gozu. When a certain missing Yakuza hitman makes his reappearance in the film. It was quite unexpected and shocking.
Come to think of it the entirety of The Happiness of the Katakuris is a WTF moment.
plan 9's microphone shot! :teddyr:
also the creature from the haunted sea first appearance! :teddyr:
Just watched Chain of Command today. When Todd Curtis took off his baseball cap and a mountain of hair fell out I was rolling on the floor.
The scene in Legend of Sleepy Hollow where the Horseman stabs Icabod and somehow FLIPS HIM over his shoulder. WTF?!? Happens so fast you don't even question it logically at first, but then later you're like, "Wait a minute??"
Yeah, a dead guy coming back to life I can accept, that's part of the story, but they didn't mention anything about his sword having some kind of anti-gravity powers.
The ending to Hook. Still can't figure out how the hell the Crocodile came back to life...
Dead Leaves pretty much the entire film (but I already did a post on that). Probably the biggest moment is what saves Panda near the climax of the film...
Ronny Cox's unbilled and uncredited appearance in Deep Blue Sea. He says nothing, does nothing, just sits there.
Nice to see him but :question:

Similar situation with the movie Adventures In Babysitting. I'm told they put in the "effe" word twice just so it wouldn't get a PG rating. (Dunno if that's true, but still, it does seem a bit out of place in the film.)

That movie is actually pretty scary and violent for what the target audience is. I think a couple of swears is the least of its problems, as far as content goes.
Latest one for me: the rape/torture/beg for sex scene in Hanzo the Razor: Sword of Justice.
Thought of this over in the Worst Movie Lines thread and decided it was more of a WTF moment. On Deadly Ground, with Steven Seagal going all Billy Jack on an oil company, has the most jaw-droppingly bizarre exchange between Seagal, as Forrest Taft, and the head goon, following a very one-sided bar fight. I'm sure many of you said WTF when this dialogue was spoken.
Taft: "What does it take to change the essence of a man?"
Big (sobbing) Mike: "I need time. I need time to change."
Taft: "So do I."
WTF?
The last 15 minutes of The cold.
Martyrs: too many times to mention.
Where the shark smashes the glass in Jaws 3 or the same thing in Deep Blue Sea.
from It Conquered the world, IT, itself
In Orca, when the killer whale deliberately starts a fire and blows up the town's fuel supply.
From Octopus 2, the scene where the giant Octopus is somehow able to attack a guy inside of a underground facility when it is clearly outside and how its tentacles are smaller than what is often depicted.

Either movie makes me want to attack an aquarium with an RPG-7...
The first time I saw Rudy Ray Moore do that thing with his face before a sped-up kung-fu fight...
I think the scene in Blood Beach, where the beach eats off the guy's you know what would count as a WTF moment. Completely amusing since the guy was attempting to rape a girl, so kodus to the killer beach.
The Movie THE WITCHES MOUNTAIN Was Just One WTF Movie Moment After Another
