Fun fact about the Psycho plot twist, that movie is the reason we have timed movies now. Before that movie they used to just play movies on repeat all day, you would go in whenever you wanted (even half way through a movie) and watch for however you would like, there would be ads, cartoons, a movie, etc. just playing over and over. With the release of Psycho, Hitchcock didn't want the twist to be spoiled for movie goers so he urged theaters to play it at specific times and refused to allow any theaters that wouldn't do this get a copy of the movie. THATS how monumental this movies twist was.

[@MitzyDoodle13]

The fan theory about "The Mist" makes the ending even worse. Earlier in the movie, the crazy lady in the grocery story proclaimed that to make the Mist go away the hero's son must be sacrificed to end the curse. So if he had "just waited a few minutes" nothing would have changed. The Mist only parted because he shot his son!

I remember watching The Others in theaters. Knew nothing about the movie, didn't even see a trailer. I was shocked at the ending. Because of that movie, I only watch teaser trailers. Makes movies so much better when you go in as fresh as possible.

[@nitinnayak1038]

Agree. I usually watch horror and suspense without reading reviews or trailers

[@nitinnayak1038]

Some of the best movie experiences were in my early years when I discovered horror movies and watched everything without knowing what some of there plots.

[@Omar-wq9dz]

It’s not really a twist, but I always loved the chest burst in Alien, where it’s revealed a xenomorph was inside

[@ewok40k]

I think better yet was reveal that The Company has sent the entire crew to die, and even sent android with them to ensure their fate was sealed.

[@MitzyDoodle13]

I would definitely call that a twist! They put the alien from Life coming to earth at the very end in the list, why not Alien? I'm surprised they didn't put that scene in to begin with.

You guys forgot the saddest part about the twist in The Orphanage; she had accidentally trapped him in the basement while looking for him. The first shot you guys show is actually her doing this. She’s moving furniture around to try and find a clue and she leans something heavy against the hidden door in the wall he had gone into.

That pissed me off so badly 😂just the whole movie

[@MizukiStone44]

There is actually a fairly convincing theory that the mist wasn't broken up by the military, but by him shooting the kid. The same way that the crazy cultist lady at the mall said.

[@christopherdavidson17]

It was so good that even Stephen King said it was the better ending.

[@Sc-ky2ik]

It was a great twist ending that exemplifies what Horror should be. King's original ending was much more open-ended. I'd say the movie ending had a much more powerful reaction, that as @christopherdavidson17 mentions, got a nod from King himself.

[@waitwhat1029]

​@@Sc-ky2ik...I still love that line out of the original ending though...the one about Hartford and hope. Almost as good as the first line of the first tower book.

[@Maykay524]

It wasn’t all in his head for American Psycho. It was set up for a debate between viewers , but the author has said it was never supposed to be that way. He did kill especially the first one. It is supposed to be a play on how they all look and act the same, no one can even tell who is who.

[@nailsarelife]

Bret Easton Ellis has even said he doesn't know if Bateman killed anyone or not. Both the book and the movie leave it up to the audience to decide. So, yeah. It shouldn't be on here.

[@knutblume907]

I have read the book. He did everything. The cop only gets a report at the end where Paul Allen is mistaken for a living person in London. Confusion is a major theme in the book. So many people live in modern cities. Everyone looks the same, lives the same life, eats the same etc.

[@PhillipPerin]

@@knutblume907 It's beyond confusion, it's more like the sense of uncaring / disconnect between humans has been dialed up to 13 for this financial psychopaths. They don't connect with people and therefore have a difficult (see: impossible) time differentiating one from the other, they focus on the wrong things. This is alluded (albeit in reverse) with the business cards. To every normal person those cards are all the same, and the people are different. But within the scope of the movie, all the people are the same and the cards are different.

[@knutblume907]

@@PhillipPerin Yes, but the cop is also half ass to his duty. By the way the violence factor of the movie is 1 in the book it is a 10. Never thought about the business cards. They are obsessed with it like with the clothes.

The last movies that got me scared, weirdly, was It Follows. I fell asleep in the middle of the movies and dreamed the ghost is following me everywhere. 😅 The first Terrifier movie also quite awesome, I hope they make another sequel. I like that villain, he's really scary IMO. ❤

[@LadyVoldemort]

​@@SeashelleBytheseashore I want to see Longlegs (in theater in my town right now). People said it's quite scary. Unfortunately I am bedridden sick since last week. 🥲 I avoid reading/watching the spoilers, hoping that I could still catch it on theater this week before it's gone. I wish somebody can accompany me to watch it (in case I passed out or something from my illness), but I'm the only person who likes horror movies in my circles of friends and families. I always watch them alone. 🥲

[@michellevasquez557]

Surprised that Shutter is not included on this list. 🤨 Shutter (Thai: ชัตเตอร์ กดติดวิญญาณ Chattoe: Kot Tit Winyan, "Shutter: Press to Capture Ghosts")[2] is a 2004 Thai supernatural horror film by Banjong Pisanthanakun and Parkpoom Wongpoom; starring Ananda Everingham, Natthaweeranuch Thongmee, and Achita Sikamana. It focuses on mysterious images seen in developed pictures. The film was a box office success.

[@Dirty_Squirrell]

I am surprised, too! It's one heck of a plot twist.

[@babayaro303]

The Visit plot twist is the best i've ever seen

[@rubygracemoseley8144]

The irony of the killer saying “I’ll be right back” in Scream 😂👏🏻

[@MitzyDoodle13]

Here's another spoiler: Matthew Lillard plays William Afton, the villain in Five Nights at Freddy's and in the games, he says, "I always come back!" And Matthew said it IN THE MOVIE. Like, complete coolness right there!!!

[@KoldBreeze]

I always felt like Drag Me To Hell needed a sequel, so I'm hyped that a sequel was announced 😂😂😂

[@MoonlightPrincess07]

Even if she can’t come back to life, I really hope Christine and the boy at the beginning of the film can be set free to heaven. Or if the sequel never comes about, I try best to convince myself that the 3 day torment and deaths were real, but god either intervenes & takes them to heaven and the ganush bloodline are the real doomed ones. Either way, humans possessing the powers to invoke such curses and doing so over slights is downright terrifying. It wasn’t about the denial of the extension, it was about pride and pride is a worse sin than greed

[@MitzyDoodle13]

I completely agree...I also like the idea of maybe bringing back Justin Long as the character who goes on a hunt for a way to release the damned from Hell and there's a big battle between good and evil. It's cliche, I know, but I think that if my boyfriend went to Hell by simply doing his job, I'd want to get justice too. Technically, that's what happened. You can't blame someone really for needing to make a living.

[@sallyannchappell5671]

Maybe not among the best of the best but certainly the best if the horror camp movies, Sleepaway Camp where the little girl is the murderer but wait, the little girl is really a little boy. You certainly have nailed the best twists in horror, indisputably. As far as twists in general goes, one that has stayed with me was the Michael Douglas film, The Gift where it was all a birthday gift for the man who has everything. I never saw that one coming and I’m pretty good at figuring out the plot finales. Can’t wait for the next movie to hit the big screen with another plot twist no one guessed.

[@TheM0B11]

michael douglas film? the game?

[@clarkness77]

God i hated that ending tho lol kinda ruined movie for me

[@negakirine]

You got the twist in The Mist wrong: it is David's sacrifice that makes the mist lift - this is referenced in the film by Mrs. Carmody when she says that they need to kill Billy and Amanda. At the very end, just after they've both been killed, the mist dissipates and the army rolls through.

[@MitzyDoodle13]

That's a very interesting theory. Was that plotline in the novella too, I can't remember.

[@edwardbickford8277]

That's up to your interpretation of the movie. I personally don't buy this explanation. Ms Carmady was batshit crazy religious zealot. The movie follows the book almost perfectly with some minor exceptions. The biggest being the ending. The last scene of the movie never happened in the book. The mist never lifted and the father never shot anyone in the car. No army fighting back the mist. They just keep driving in the mist trying to figure out their next move. The book ended bleak and opened ended.

[@waitwhat1029]

​@@edwardbickford8277...bleak? I thought that "one is Hartford, the other is hope" line made the ending cautiously optimistic. The Mrs Nutbag theory falls apart to me because it's so immediate. 2 minutes after he commits the sacrifice the army is in full swing and they just happen to be right behind him? Nah. The army was already there. I always saw it more as he lost hope too soon. Jumped the gun so to speak. That could just be my brain refusing to let go of the Hartford/hope line though.

[@ripvanwinkle9648]

If you don't mind watching a film with subtitles, and have patience, "A Tale of Two Sisters" is a true masterpiece. It starts out slow, and may seem quite confusing to some, but there are tons of little hints, a double twist, stellar performances, and gorgeous cinematography.

[@Multi_Purpose_Weirdo]

I completely agree. It's a bit slow, but the final act dropped my jaw to the floor.

My favorite plot twists are the ones where the protagonist comes out fighting and really sticks it to the killers like I Spit on Your Grave, Last House on the Left, also You're Next...the revelation that the main gal could take care of herself and being a survivalist, that's just epic! On the other hand, in Don't Breathe, the blind man becoming the villain and when the wife is "rescued" by the family of the killers in Eden Lake-brilliant, although the winner ultimately is the evil but you can't deny the good twist even if it is at the end.

A great horror movie plot twist is also in Ghosts of War 2020 staring Brenton Thwaites and Alan Ritchson. I could watch that movie over and over and it's still a shock to watch.

To this day I have no idea why "Malcolm is a ghost" in the 6th sense is a considered a twist. We see him die in the opening shot (haha, shot), and then we see him again, talking only to the kid who can talk to ghosts? It's too much on the nose, there is no way it could've been a twist. The entire movie I knew he was a ghost, but didn't really care for it, or plot in general, because I was only in it for the scares (I was about 10 at the time)

I continue to feel creativity in horror is dead. It's generally always predictable as long as you can think of how it can end depressingly or badly in any way. Im waiting for a horror with both a twist and a happy ending. That's rare.

Another trippy piece of FD5 was how the guy in the bar is crushed by a piece of the plane falling.

I Love Horror Movie's.❤🍿

[@ALightThroughTheDarkness]

I watched carnival of souls. It was a creepy movie for its time but a really good twist. I love old style horror movies.

Where the absolute hell is sinister

[@SammiePopCulture]

I'd add the married couple in 'The People Under The Stairs' are brother and sister.

[@spiderpig9777]

Dead Silence very underrated

[@5FtOfAnger]

It sucks WatchMojo never talks about the movie Haunted in the horror movie videos. That movie has a good plot twist.

[@Twitch13MP]

Sinister had a great twist in that Ethan Hawke's character moves his family away from the house where all the craziness was happening, only to find that moving to a new house ensured that his family would be killed.

Sleepy Hollow is such a great movie

[@trassaya]

I was saddened to find that Frailty wasn't on this list. It has a couple of great twists. And it's one of the most underated horror movies of all time.

I remember there being a movie based around this influencer who went to another country with his friends to do an escape room which was supposed to be the most intense. And then, through a series of horror, he comes to shoot one of his friends for thinking hes the mastermind villian that planned in and lured them there. And then everyone came out, surpring him saying it was all staged but not before the influencer killed his friend? Like the plot of April Fools but only darker which I thought was also pretty cool.

Bodies Bodies Bodies And Triangle And The Awakening Should Be On The List

[@dmnapier7]

2 movies im surprised didn't make on this list. 13 ghost, the protagonist was a ghost The Dark Half (Based on Stephen King book of the same name), the killer was literally in the guys mind

[@davidsonmg]

love these videos

[@maskbunnyelectro8416]

Fun fact: the hallucination/UK ending of the decent isn't canon, because the sequel shows that Sarah is still alive
