I recently bought the book but haven't started it yet. I have seen the film though and no, I absolutely didn't see it coming! So for once I'm glad I didn't read the book first.

Soylent Green
The Mechanic (Charles Bronson)

Memento

The Burbs

Not strictly speaking the end of the film, but the end of Schindler's list.

Bugonia.

Law abiding citizen

Tal hot blonde

The gift

Already mentioned but The Mist. Absolutely devastating. Interestingly, the Stephen King novella that it's based on doesn't end on such a bleak note!

SPOILER

Pride. Every time I read the caption about Mark Ashton's death, "He was 26 years old" I just sob like a baby. Great film.

Oh God, and this. I cried my eyes out.

The Great Escape.

Mind you my first thought was Four Weddings as that shite "is it raining?" line is probably the worst line ever and therefore stays in my mind when you think of movie endings.

The Elephant Man
Manchester by the Sea
Love Story
Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid

Love the twist in this film!

The boy in the striped pyjamas absolutely rocked me I wasn't expecting such a bleak ending hadn't read the book

The Substance. I watched the last 20 minutes or so with my mouth wide open.

The family stone , I watch this every Christmas . It has a very bittersweet ending .

Titanic.

Such a shock when the boat sank.

Saw
Rec
The Descent
Incantation
Don't Look Now
The Exorcist

Casablanca

The Exorcist!

Oh I know. I think the makers of the film were trying to see just how outrageous & grotesque they could make it. My friend told me not to watch it. I did & said I liked it. She said "wtf is wrong with you?!" 🤣

Yes, The Substance.You guys are my spirit animals!

Bring in also the end of 28 Years Later.

Yes to The Descent. Haunting.
Also a micro -budget British horror called The Borderlands. Absolutely terrifying.

Yes, so much more bleak than the USA/UK version.

Beau is Afraid
The Wicker Man

I saw it in the cinema and I was trying not to laugh out loud and annoy others. But then I saw everyone near me laughing too so it was fine.

I recently learnt the truth about ‘All Dogs Go to Heaven’ (1990 animation) and cried my absolute heart out 💔

The end of the film is sad and sweet but when you learn the truth about what happened to that little girl (Judith Barsi) it is unbearable. They almost couldn’t film the end sequence as Burt Reynolds couldn’t keep it together.
