o0Ampy0o Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 Some of my favorite movie experiences have involved a plot twist or revelation. Looking at my starting list you may get the idea of what I am referring to. This idea came to mind reading the time travel thread so there are some films in this list which were mentioned there. PLEASE NO SPOILERS Shutter Island Moon Atonement Planet of the Apes (the original) Alien Sophie's Choice The Sixth Sense The Crying Game 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rod S Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 A few that come to mind - Primal Fear Oldboy Arrival The uninvited Shutter (the Thai movie; there was a american remake that sucks, the Thai original scared the shit out of me) Open Your Eyes (the Spanish original to "Vanilla Sky") The Vanishing (Again, the original Dutch movie, which has a darker ending than the American remake, which I enjoyed as well. ) The Invisible Guest (Argentinian movie, probably not well known outside of Latin America) 1 Quote Korg Kronos X73 / ARP Odyssey / Motif ES Rack / Roland D-05 / JP-08 / SE-05 / Jupiter Xm / Novation Mininova / NL2X / Waldorf Pulse II MBP-LOGIC American Deluxe P-Bass, Yamaha RBX760 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, THE INVISIBLE GUEST was shot in Spain. The writer/director, Oriol Paulo, is amazingly talented. He is obviously a big fan of Hitchcock. He loves twisting revelations in his stories. I loved his movie, MIRAGE, which also has some nice twists. Going to watch his movie, THE BODY, next. My wife just had my son watch THE USUAL SUSPECTS and ANGEL HEART, because of the awesome reveals. (Not to worry, he's 24!) I never got into "dream" reveals or "in your head reveals" like IDENTITY or SHUTTER ISLAND. Some other reveals I liked. THE PRESTIGE THE OTHERS NO WAY OUT (definitely didn't see that coming with Costner) SAW ORPHAN THE SKIN I LIVE IN INSIDE MAN UNKNOWN PREDESTINATION 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anderton Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 Ingrid Goes West. I spent most of the movie wondering why I was watching it, but found out in the last five minutes.

I watched an Argentian movie recomended by the same friend and got the origin mixed up. And thanks for the other suggestions. 1 Quote Korg Kronos X73 / ARP Odyssey / Motif ES Rack / Roland D-05 / JP-08 / SE-05 / Jupiter Xm / Novation Mininova / NL2X / Waldorf Pulse II MBP-LOGIC American Deluxe P-Bass, Yamaha RBX760 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
