Which film has the best 'twist ending'?

[sp1814]

I'm going to spend some time over the next few months, raiding LoveFilm and Netflix for the best 'twist in the tale' films, and I'd like to get a head start with a list of films to view.

I've already seen quite a few (No Way Out, The Sixth Sense, Passengers, The Others, The Village, Orphan, Identity, Les Diaboliques), and need to compile a list the next lot to view.

Any suggestions?

The tourist

Did you understand Vanilla Sky, jenna, the whole thing was a bit twisted to me, the same as Mulholland Drive, which had twists but I don't think I understood them. :)

[sp1814]

Okay - so far the ones I've not seen are Coma and The Sting.

They are now added to my list.

Jenna1978 - yep...I saw Identity too and it has probably the most mind-frying endings ever. Had to watch it again the following day to see how I was fooled.

for a weird turn of events Mulholland Drive

Cheers...will be adding Seven Pound to my list (have seen all your other suggestions).

Wow - this is BRILLIANT...why didn't I think of asking on this site before...!

No, I just kind of drifted through it and lost interest in the end, not my kind of thing. The most memorable twist ending for me was Saw, I always annoyingly pick up on a lot of twists but never saw that one coming!

The Usual Suspects is my favourite but I also enjoyed The Others and Sixth Sense

[Eve]

Sorry, that was to Rocky, not you sp :) Identity was quite something!

[Mick-Talbot]

Maybe not the best and maybe not 'high brow' enough for you lot but it is the first I remember.

Planet of the apes.

I was only a kid and remember like it was yesterday.

Jenna1978

Thanks for the suggestion of Memento, but I've seen it and it just annoyed me (because I have a ridiculously short attention span and am not too good with juggling plot devices in my head).

Snags and Ellipsis - thanks but unfortunately, although I've not seen them, I know the endings (thanks to a blabbermouth partner).

Mick-Talbot

Yep, already saw that as a kid, and the ending bothered me so much that I literally can't watch it again.

Thanks - I've seen The Tourist and loved it (although it got pretty poor reviews). I didn't even know there was a twist coming...which is probably the best way to watch a film with a twist.

Yep I remember planet of the apes, quite a shock at the end, statue of liberty sticking out of the sand.

[snags]

The Departed.

Unfortunately, I guessed the twist in The Others before I saw the film. I actually got it from the poster (but it came out shortly after The Sixth Sense, when there were a slew of 'twist movies').

Still flipping good though.

[sp1814]

snags - thanks...seen it!

[friedgreentomato]

memento

[sunny-dave]

Not Titanic then RH?

[sp1814]

Okay - so The Sting, Seven Pounds and and Coma.

That will start me off nicely (and I bet Netflix and LoveFilm have none of those!)

[Ellipsis]

What a shame, sp1814, but it's still worth watching even if you know the ending. I've seen it many times on Sky movies ...
