[retrorussell]

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!


There's tons more-- whether intended to be out of left field, surprising, shocking or due to awkward editing, or whatever!  Post yours!

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!

Yeah, the ending on that one got pretty convoluted, like trying to explain the strangely convenient three year story arc to some soap opera.....

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.
One of the best stories by my favorite author.

haha yeah true. I actually like it though, it's pretty audacious

RATS: NIGHT OF TERROR (1984)

I dunno, I always thought that was a cheap shock, like those depressing sci-fis frome the '70s......
