I'm going to a theater (that specializes in older/weird/obscure flicks) to see PIECES next month, so I'll contribute this one:
The lead male protagonist gets his kit ripped off by a corpse composed of multiple body parts!

Well, SLEEPAWAY CAMP comes to mind . . . you watch this pretty young girl all through the film as murders happen around her, and the big reveal at the end (SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER!!!)
Not only is she responsible for the killings, but "she" is a he!!!
DON'T LOOK NOW:
Donald Sutherland plays a guy feeling like he can sense the presence of his deceased daughter. He thinks he sees her at the end but it turns out to be a creepy dwarf that stabs him in the neck! He dies bleeding in a church tower!

I'm guessing your talking about the 1963 original. I never see the remake.
I read the book years before I seen the movie. I was 12 when I read Shirley Jackson's novel-many times. So it wasn't a surprise to me.

At the end of DON'T LOOK IN THE BASEMENT- the big Lennie type black guy who eats popsicles reflects on all the dead people.

It is a great novel. When I think of the HAUNTING (1963) I think of the 'Haunting of Hill House" by Shirley Jackson.
I read the book in 1974 when I was 12. I actually stole it from the library. As in, I never returned it. I paid the fine for the lost book.
I didn't see the movie until the 80's, on vhs.
Shirley Jackson is a genius. I've read every story she ever wrote.
The ending of LAKE FEAR 2 was one of the most WTF things I have ever seen.
Here's that lovely ending scene RC mentioned:

Yeah, that ending in The Fly was pretty f@#%^&. My mother took my younger sister and I to see it, when it was 1st released to theaters. (Thanks, Mom. You gave me my love for bad movies.) Though, I saw very little of it, as I spent most of it huddling down on the floor among the spilled jujubes.
If one looks closely, one will notice that during that scene neither Vincent Price nor Herbert Marshall are looking at each other. They just couldn't look at each other, because, when they did, both men would break into laughter at the sheer ridiculousness of the scene.

Hellraiser judgement: SPOILERS.
[sp] Pinhead gets tired of an obnoxious angel coming down from heaven to boss him around and pulls a trick on her. She comes back in all her blonde, tight white clad glory and proceeds to rip on pinhead, in hell. where he is powerful. Pinhead has had enough of the angle (Who was the one that was in charge of banishing manking from eden long ago) and her master, telling her thae she and him can suck it, then tears her arrogant ass apart. afterwards pjnhead is punished, despite blondie coming into his domain domain and bossing him around, by being exiled from hell to....earth!
So maybe to pinhead earth was worse than hell....[/sp]

HUMANOIDS FROM THE DEEP. When the girl gives birth by involuntary C-section.
Haha I just watched this last night. From what I've heard it was at least somewhat promoted/advertised as humanoids not only trying to kill people, but also mate with them. However, the ending is one of only two parts that has anything to do with that. The other is when a humanoid is attacking a woman (I believe the same one in the ending) and he looks to get on top of her/sort of mount her. However, it's so brief that it could easily just be thought of as him smothering her.
From what I've read of the production Roger Corman fired the director for not filming enough of these type of sex/attack scenes. Then a new director shot some such scene to be inserted into the film. However, for some reason Corman never did this. Probably because after he saw the footage he thought, "WTF is wrong with me?"
I thought the movie made it pretty clear that, yeah, they were f**king them.

What's weirder is that I know most of the peeps who made that film: my review is in the submitted review child board.
I first saw CARNIVAL OF SOULS probably about 1969... Lincoln Ave, Point Pleasant Borough (we were back in St. Peter's) probably a Saturday afternoon TV broadcast... then we see the main character Mary Henry in the car pulled out of the river, also dead... that spooked me... they had run after her and they got her! I was very young for such scary sh!t.

And her lover, the circus strongman was not suppose to be killed by the Freaks, but only castrated, as there was a scene of him singing soprano in the sideshow, a scene that was later cut from the film, because of the negative reaction by preview audiences.

A boy they know runs towards them and they are happy to see him. But for some reason the woman screams in terror and the film just ends! WTF happened??

I haven't seen the original but I'm pretty sure the endings are the same. To be honest, I really don't know why the remake got that reputation, I think it's just that "let's pick on Nicholas Cage" meme that goes around all the time. I watched the movie recently expecting a terribad experience and it's actually a quite entertaining film, with an awesome ending and some engaging parts. I mean, it's no masterpiece, but I would give it a 6/10, an ok movie to pass the time.
Other Cage's films like Knowing have been praised as "the best scifi flick of the year" and are complete garbage, at least after the first half hour, when apparently they switched scripts or something.
Fun fact: I watched The Wicker Man
specifically for the "not the bees!!" scene. When the credits rolled and the scene never showed up I was angry and confused, so I looked it up and turns out, the version I watched is some kind of cut which tones down the torture scene. I was p**sed off.

No, but to my mind is notable for 2 reasons, excluding the rest of the cast, it stars William Shatner, and it's John Travolta's motion picture debut.
