Aunt_Acid Posted August 5, 2004 Report Share Posted August 5, 2004 Shyamalin is the twist masta! He should hire someone else to write the endings though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MindCrime Posted August 31, 2010 Report Share Posted August 31, 2010 OK, definately worth mentioning is Memento. This movie offers a very unique version of film making in that it is filmed backwards. The beginning of the movie is actually the 'end' but it keeps jumping back in time to slowly reveal the plot. Also, Donnie Darko, and Mulholland Dr have plot twisting ends. I agree about those movies, definitely worth mentioning. I just watched Memento for a 3rd time and am still trying to figure it out completely.

RockyRaccoon Posted August 31, 2010 Report Share Posted August 31, 2010 Reviving a six-year-old thread? Is that a new record? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawna Posted August 31, 2010 Report Share Posted August 31, 2010 maybe a new record, but has someone mentioned "The Others" yet? That was a twisty little bugger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ombre Vivante Posted August 31, 2010 Report Share Posted August 31, 2010 Plot twists galore. If you like those, then these films are right up your alley: The Bird With The Crystal Plummage A Blade In The Dark Diabolique (the original version) The Vanishing (the original version) Usually, the Italians are the ones who've done the whole plot-twist thing to death (pun intended) as part of their giallo genre. They're usually trashy, midnight movies, but ten times better than the American ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tybalt Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 Reviving a six-year-old thread? Is that a new record? Here's one from the intervening years: The Prestige (2006) Directed by Christopher Nolan. Screenplay by Jonathan Nolan & Christopher Nolan from the novel by Christopher Priest. Starring Hugh Jackman, Christian Bale, Michael Caine. With Scarlett Johansson and David Bowie. This story about rival magicians was released about the same time as The Illusionist, another twisted magician story. In fact, I saw them both in the same week. The Prestige is much trickier, and, by my tastes, superior. It has shown up on TV, but don't think about watching it that way. It ought to be viewed without commercial interuption to be at all intelligible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Posted September 1, 2010 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 Now that sounds good. Another for the queue. Nice to see you Tybalt, as always. For some reason it's sort of special when you pop in. And good lord, look at the other old timers up there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ombre Vivante Posted September 4, 2010 Report Share Posted September 4, 2010 Neil Jordan's The Miracle also fits the bill. I liked it a lot more than The Crying Game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
