number ten Ghostface unmasked scream the
biggest twist in this movie was the Drew
Barrymore who was marketed as the main
lead in the film was only in it for like
two seconds just kidding though that was
quite the bait and switch
The Scream franchise which began in 1996
and continued for over a decade until
2011 distinguished itself by holding up
a mirror to the genre as well as calling
out and toying with common horror tropes
main characters Sidney Prescott is
stalked by the mask wearing killer ghost
face and he is seriously creepy
well more like they are creepy the huge
plot twist comes near the end of the
movie when it's revealed that Ghost Face
is actually two killers and not just one
and it made for a killer reveal watch a
few movies take a few notes number 9 red
is Adelaide is red us with his debut
feature film get out Jordan Peele
announced himself as a potentially
game-changing filmmaker one who knows
how to keep audiences on their toes his
follow-up Us is a thrilling horror movie
starring Lupita Nyong'o that pushed the
boundaries within the genre to new
psychological heights the story read
tells the Wilsons about the girl in her
shadow is seriously haunting but also
the key foreshadowing for the final
twist in the film's final moments
Adelaide again recalls the incident from
her childhood at the funhouse this time
revealing the full picture red attacked
Adelaide and left her trapped in the
funhouse with the tethered meaning that
for the entire movie red was Adelaide
and Adelaide was red never ate the real
jigsaw killer saw the dead body is not
dead we repeat the dead body is not dead
this hugely successful franchise has
racked up more than its fair share of
twists and turns over the course of
numerous sequels but the twist ending of
the first film remains arguably the
property's greatest to date
hello Amanda you don't know baby but as
the main characters attempt to navigate
the cruel game of life and death into
which they've been thrust against their
will it quickly becomes clear that death
is far more likely than escape in Psy's
final scene after all the tension and
bloodshed the dead body in the middle of
the room slowly rises up it's a very
interesting person his name's John has
an inoperable frontal-lobe tumor the
villainous jigsaw killer was hiding in
plain sight the whole time number 7 the
bunker parasite this Jarrah bending film
is a wild ride from start to finish
directed by pong ho who won four Academy
Awards for the film parasite can be
described as cerebral funny and
thrilling the title parasite is quite
telling something that lives off of
another is essentially the boiled down
premise of this movie the Kim family
secretly infiltrates the wealthy Park
family but they aren't the only ones the
parks former housekeeper and her husband
were keeping secrets too
the hidden underground bunkers
definitely makes for an unexpected twist
one that added just the right amount of
excitement and tension I leave for the
tones of Toby's hundred on penny
so as to the question of who the real
parasites are that remains up for debate
number six who is Andrew lateis shutter
island' this Scorsese thriller follows
Edward Teddy Daniels a US Marshal
investigating a missing patient of the
titular Island psychiatric facility
sorry doctor you don't happen to have an
aspirin do you suffering migraines and
hallucinations Daniels becomes
increasingly paranoid and believes
something is definitely off about the
whole thing
tremors are getting pretty bad how the
hallucinations get out of here Teddy
this place is gonna be the end of you
the plot comes to a head when the staff
reveals that Daniels himself is the
arsonist he has ultimately been chasing
after they were performing an experiment
to see if he would recall the events
that led him to the facility Teddy
Daniels real name is Andrew ladis he
killed his wife after she drowned their
children's experiment is ultimately
deemed a failure but Leonardo DeCaprio
statement at the end of the film implies
he does in fact remember knowing the
truth he'd simply rather be lobotomised
which would be worse is a monster days a
good man
number five Tyler Durden also known as
the narrator Fight Club ever notice that
Edward Norton's character in Fight Club
doesn't have a name known only as the
narrator his life becomes infinitely
more exciting and chaotic after meeting
Tyler Durden played by Brad Pitt the
first rule of Fight Club is you do not
talk about Fight Club they establish a
Fight Club together that soon evolves
into an anti consumerism organization
that condones violence and anarchy
the massive twist comes when the
narrator tracks down dirt into a
different city where he informs him that
they are one in the same
person that's right the brilliant
editing throughout the film which
included split second spliced frames of
Durden and scenes with the narrator
paired with this iconic twist firmly
established this movie as a cult classic
I am smart capable and most importantly
I'm free in all the ways that you or not
Tyler's not here Alan away number four
home sweet home planet of the apes
imagine waking up on a strange planet
almost 2,000 years after your space
mission began well that's exactly how
Planet of the Apes begins and it only
gets wilder from there shortly after
landing astronauts Taylor dodge and
Landon are captured by primates who rule
the planet the sooner he is exterminated
the better it's a question of simian
survival they realize humans are
imprisoned and enslaved while the Apes
chimpanzees and orangutans are the
Masters of society a scary concept for
sure especially when the primates
threatened to lobotomize castrate and
kill Taylor he escapes to a forbidden
area where the plot twists and truth is
finally revealed
he's been on earth all along
upon seeing a half-buried and demolished
Statue of Liberty the man breaks down
cursing those responsible for humanity's
fall number three I am your father
Star Wars Episode five the Empire
Strikes Back
not only is Star Wars among the most
influential entertainment franchises in
the world but it also gave us one of the
most quoted plot twists in cinematic
history it is useless to resist don't
let yourself be destroyed as obi-wan in
The Empire Strikes Back
Vader attempts to convince Luke to join
him on the dark side while engaging the
young would-be Jedi in a lightsaber duel
after cutting off Luke's hand the hair
reveals a shocking secret to the
seemingly defeated young hero uttering
the now iconic words if it weren't so
devastating to Luke it would actually be
kind of heartwarming join me and
together we can rule the galaxy as
father and son either way when the movie
came out in 1980 it was one huge plot
twist
number two dead people The Sixth Sense
admittedly and my Shyamalan has had a
bit of a bumpy career directing more
than his fair share of flops but when
The Sixth Sense hit theaters in 1999 he
was being heralded as one of the most
promising young storytellers working in
the medium the major plot twist has
inspired and appeared in many movies
including the others which was released
just a few years after all of the clues
were spelled out plain as day the kid
literally tells us that he interacts
with the dead looking back it all makes
sense but the first viewing was a huge
shock to everyone who watched stellar
performances by both bruce willis and
haley joel osment made this plot twist
an absolute jaw-dropper true story
I was very shocked when I saw the sixth
sense actually I was shocked at all of
these and I do love a good reveal our
number one is iconic and you probably
won't be shocked by it today but I
cannot even imagine what it must have
been like to see this movie when it was
originally released you can use that
clue to guess and then wait until after
these honorable mentions to see if
you're right about the top reveal no one
saw coming I'm sorry I thought you knew
what are you doing in the bar if you
didn't know where are you from
for what
you came from the woods

third reveal Norman is mrs. Bates in his
mind setting a precedent for plot twists

way for hundreds of films for decades to
