Biggest surprises of the pre spoiler era? ( film and tv)

[semicko82]

great cliffhanger, but the show fell off after this

there wasn’t any news that John Schiender leaving the show, so I was shocked they killed off the character

With as much as they give away in trailers nowadays, good plot twists seems like a thing of da past.

Oh wowwww- thanks! And rep owed.

Was there really some type of monster thing on the island too? I heard a lot of chatter about the series back then but I wasn’t into it at the time.

Put me onto some new horror or psychological thrillers. I've been dry lately.

Unpopular opinion about the Usual Suspects it’s just an ok movie without that plot twist

been saying this for years

The most recent good plot twist I recall is Promising Young Woman

What genre???

What genre???

It doesn’t fit into any one particular genre, but if I had to choose I would say thriller and that’s stretching it

Yeah there’s so many tonal shifts in that film. Fun ass watch though.

Exactly
At one point the movie is a romantic comedy

You have to come join us - we literally post something new errrryday lol
Essential - The Official Coli Horror Film Thread: Discussion, Recommendations And Murder.

But a compiled list only of recents would be a good look though -

I’ll work on that based on what everybody posted these past few months when I get more time and tag you, probably tomm or Tuesday. I need a list to catch up on myself - it’s a lot of activity in these horror streets lately. The influx of content post quarantine - they’re making up for lost time, so much to stream I don’t know what to choose

I mean it's been years since I've seen it, but I remember feeling like the twist just made everything else that happened in the movie feel pointless and like a waste of two hours lol. But to be fair, it's been awhile since I've watched it and my opinions on movies in general have changed since then

But that's the whole point of the movie.. you're the cop. The whole shyt WAS pointless. You got duped, listening to some lying ass guy feed you a story, and the clue were in front of you the entire time. Of course it would be shytty without the twist. If they run in and arrest him, and the story is true, then he just ratted himself out.. Or that other guy he pinned it on, was the boss the whole time, which would be an open and shut story...

Instead.......
