Halloween is just around the corner. In honor of this spooky character, I'm making a list of the top 10 most shocking Horror Movie plot twists of all time. Many horror movies have great plot twists, but these 6 are the ones i consider the best.
6. SHE NEVER SLEEPS (THE RING)
The Ring is one of my all time favorite movies. Not just horror movies, but movies. It does a good job at mixing drama and suspense, showing that a Horror Movie is more than scares and gore. My favorite plot twist revolves around the "tragic" character of Samara Morgan. When we first learn about her, She is the adopted daughter of Anna and Richard Morgan, owners of a New England horse ranch. She was born with Nesha, the psychic ability to imprint images onto the mind of others. As she gets older, her abilities get worse, affecting her mother and the horses.Her mother is sent to a mental hospital, and the horses jumped off cliffs, killing themselves. Rachel(played by Naomi Watts) finds her body at the bottom of a well, and releases her soul, finally able to be in peace, or so she believes.
PLOT TWIST/SPOILER
At the end of it all, it turns out that the misunderstood Samara was actually evil!!! She used her powers on the horses because she hated them, convinced that her parents love them more than her. Her mother threw her down a well, It turns out that the only way to stop her from killing you was to make a copy of the tape you watched and show it to someone else, passing the curse to them.
5. YOU'RE A GOOD BOY, NORMAN (PSYCHO)
In Psycho, a young woman, who stole a lot of money from the bank, checks into a motel room owned by Mama's Boy Norman bates and his mysterious mother. When she gets into the shower, Mrs. Bates opens the shower curtains and kills the hell out of her, leaving the very squeamish Norman to get rid of the evidence. Throughout the whole movie, Norman is covering his mother's psychotic tracks.
PLOT TWIST/SPOILER
It turns out Norman is his mother! His mother was dead all along, and he had been dressing up in his mother's clothes because he has a split personality. His normal self, and his Mother Mode.
4. PERFECT (BLACK SWAN)
In Black Swan, Nina Sayers(Played by Natalie Portman) is a Ballerina who aspires to be the lead in her company's production of Swan Lake. However, in order to become the lead, she must be able to channel both the graceful White Swan, and the seductive Black Swan. She masters the White Swan, but fails at the Black Swan. The frustration of her struggle to be the Black Swan starts getting to her head, as she sees a Doppelganger(Played by Mila Kunis) following her around, as well as her becoming more birdlike.
PLOT TWIST/SPOILER
It turned out that it was all in her head!!! There never was a Doppelganger, and she was never actually becoming a Swan. She was losing her mind because of the pressure of playing a character she was the complete opposite of.
3. ANGELA IS THE KILLER? (SLEEPAWAY CAMP)
In Sleepaway Camp, Angela and her cousin go to camp during their vacation. While they're there, a serial killer goes on a loose rampage and starts killing off the campers and counselors. In the end, Angela is revealed to be the killer, but that's not the plot twist the movie is famous for.
PLOT TWIST/SPOILER
It turns out that Angela was a boy! What does that have to do with the plot? IDK.
2. MILDRED KEMP (THE UNINVITED)
In The Uninvited, Anna returns home after spending time in rehab after the tragic death of her mother. When she returns home, she is greeted by her father, Her older sister Alex and her Dad's girlfriend Rachel, who used to be her mother's caretaker. As the sisters learn more about their soon to be stepmom, they find out that Rachel might be Mildred Kemp, a nanny who killed three children n the 90's. Alex tries to get some answers from her dad, but he just seemingly ignores her.
PLOT TWIST/SPOILER
It turns out that Anna was the killer! Well, her split personality was at least. She accidentally killed her mother because she saw her father banging Rachel back when she was the caretaker. She was gonna burn down the house with her father in it, but accidentally led to the cabin her sick mother lived in to explode. This shocked her so much that she wiped it off her memory and developed a split personality to do all the killing. Oh, and also, Alex was dead all along! She died along her mother during the cabin explosion, and her split personality took the form of Alex to only further confuse Anna. Creepy.
1. ESTHER (ORPHAN)
In Orphan, a husband and wife adopt an older child after a tragic miscarriage. There, they find Esther, a nine year old Russian girl who is orphaned once again after her first adoptive family dies in a fire. At first, Esther seem s like a dream come true to the couple. She's nice, polite, obedient. and very loving. But that little girl they took in isn't actually what she seems.
PLOT TWIST/SPOILER
Esther is actually a grown woman! Her real name is Lena Klamer and she was born with a rare hormone deficiency that makes her look childlike. She is also a violent mental patient who escaped and has been posing as a child most of her life.
