Memento
Memento by Christopher Nolan is a movie created for twists if there ever was one. The main character Leonard Shelby, who is beautifully portrayed by Guy Pearce, is not only a textbook unreliable narrator but the story is also told backward in the film. Due to a medical problem, Leonard's long-term memory is still working, but he is only able to recall the last 15 to 20 minutes of events. Leonard follows the tattooed clues inscribed all over his chest while taking notes, Polaroids, and other actions to keep himself focused.
His objective is to track down "John G," the accused assassin of his wife. But because of his condition, he can be easily tricked by those around him.
Get out
Chris (Daniel Kaluuya) is concerned about their possible reactions when he travels to meet his girlfriend's family for the first time. However, the more time he spends at their house, the stranger things become. The neighbors stop by for a strange party, Rose's mother tries to hypnotize Chris, and Chris has some unsettling interactions with her two Black housekeepers. He eventually starts to worry that his own life might be in danger.
The first revelation in Jordan Peele's genre-defining horror comedy is also the one that is the easiest to predict: Chris' girlfriend Rose Armitage (Allison Williams) isn't who she claims to be. She has been luring Black guys to her house under the guise of introducing them to her family for some time, and Chris is only the most recent.
Mulholland Drive
Any David Lynch movie's plot can be summed up, but doing so is a bit like attempting to capture the sun. The main characters of the film are an aspiring performer named Betty (Naomi Watts) and Rita, a mystery woman with amnesia who breaks into her flat. However, as the two make an effort to learn what happened to Rita, things fully spiral out of control.
Again, the twist isn't your normal one because this is a Lynch movie. The suggestion toward the movie's climax is that Betty isn't who she thinks she is; instead, she's a failed actor named Diane who allegedly hallucinated the entire first two-thirds of the movie. The truth is that Diane came to Hollywood with dreams of fame and money, and the city has utterly shattered her. The mystery and attraction of Hollywood are nothing more than a fantasy of Diane's disordered mind. — S.H.
Hereditary
Making sure you pay attention is important since Ari Aster's Hereditary is all about the minutiae. A bereaved family strives to rebuild their lives after the untimely loss of their grandma, Ellen. But when Annie (Toni Collette) has a vision of her deceased mother in her home after the cemetery is vandalized, it is evident that Ellen had a deeper influence over the family home than her daughter realized.
Later, when a second unexpected family death threatens to destroy them utterly, Annie seeks support at a grieving support group where she meets Joan, who suggests that she undergo a seance.
Ellen belonged to a coven that sought to call Paimon, a demon who needs a male host to dwell. Joan, the alleged support group participant, has been a member of this coven her entire life and is now doing everything in her power to follow Ellen's final desires.
Unbreakable
Without including one from The Sixth Sense director M. Night Shyamalan, we couldn't even consider compiling a list of narrative twists. Fortunately, this 2000 release just barely makes it in.
Unbreakable, the first chapter in the trilogy of the same name, centers on comic book art dealer Elijah Price (Samuel L. Jackson) and his search for a real-life superhero. He thinks he has accomplished his goal when he meets former football star David Dunn (Bruce Willis), the lone survivor of a fatal railway collision.
David is a true superhero with superhuman strength and the capacity to perceive atrocities that individuals have allowed simply by touching them. But the twist isn't there. When David shakes Elijah's hand after the movie, he realizes that Elijah was the one who had been planning the train crash all along.
Shutter Island
Two U.S. marshals go to a mental hospital on an island to look for a missing woman who is being detained there for drowning her children in Martin Scorsese's suspenseful psychological thriller. One of the investigators, Teddy Daniels (Leonardo DiCaprio), however, has another reason for accepting the position: he also hopes to track down Andrew Landis, an arsonist who killed his wife in a fire.
Teddy Daniels is a patient there. He killed his wife after she drowned their children, and his real name is Andrew Laeddis, which is an anagram of "Edward Daniels."
Atonement
A young woman named Briony (Saoirse Ronan) observes her older sister Cecilia (Keira Knightley) having sex with their housekeeper's son Robbie four years before World War II (James McAvoy). She is wrong in thinking that her sister is being abused. She later misidentifies Robbie as the perpetrator when her 15-year-old cousin Lola (Juno Temple) is being raped.
When Briony finally accepts her error, she meets with Cecilia and Robbie (now on leave in London) in an attempt to make amends.
Robbie never returned from World War II. A much older Briony (who is now a novelist) conjures up the events that take place later in the film, after Robbie has been evacuated, as part of an autobiographical novel she is writing. In reality, Cecilia passed very shortly after Robbie's death during World War II. The two's happy endings never materialized.
US
A family's vacation takes a dark turn in Jordan Peele's achingly original thriller when they are assaulted by a bunch of extremely unsettling doppelgängers. They soon discover that the people attacking them are clones known as "The Tethered" who came to "cut" themselves free from their duplicates so they wouldn't have to remain hidden. This information could seem like a major twist but hold onto your seats.
This one is quite bizarre. It turns out that the government produced the Tethered as clones as part of an unsuccessful attempt to control humanity. When things went wrong, the clones were imprisoned in a network of tunnels, where they spent the rest of their dismal days imitating the behavior of their counterparts on the surface. But now that they have freed themselves, they are determined to seize that lovely brightness for themselves.
Knives Out
Private detective Benoit Blanc (Daniel Craig) is engaged to check into the case after crime writer Harlan Thrombey (Christopher Plummer) is discovered dead during his 85th birthday celebration. He quickly discovers that Harlan had arguments with virtually every member of his family and that a lot of people may have harbored ill intentions toward him.
Knives Out, directed by Rian Johnson, is the most entertaining movie we saw in 2019 and features all the stunning twists you'd anticipate from a classic whodunit. The first is that Harlan did commit suicide, but only because he believed he was going to pass away anyway. His nurse Marta (Ana de Armas) had allegedly switched his medication by accident, giving him a fatal dose of morphine and giving him only minutes to live. Before he passed away, Harlan devised his alibi for her to prevent her from getting into trouble with the law.
Gone Girl
Teacher Nick Dunne (Ben Affleck) reports his wife Amy (Rosamund Pike) missing on their fifth wedding anniversary in David Fincher's adaptation of Gillian Flynn's book. Nick finds himself emerging as the main suspect in her disappearance as the police are unable to locate her and media interest in the case increases.
The situation for him then becomes much worse when investigators discover proof that he was having an affair with one of his students, that his marriage was in serious trouble, and that his wife had written in her diary that she feared he may kill her day.
The Mist
A father and kid are stuck inside a grocery store with a group of strangers as a weird mist blanket the entire earth. People who attempt to go outdoors find that the mist is home to a variety of horrifying beasts with a taste for human flesh. A small group, including the father and kid, ultimately decides to flee outside as the other survivors in the supermarket become increasingly deadly.
This movie is based on a Stephen King book, which ends with a glimmer of hope. But the film adaption by Frank Darabont is much, much grimmer. The people who are still alive finally run out of gas when they find a car and start driving through the fog in search of assistance.
