horror fans are generally an optimistic
Bunch we want to see the best in even a
terrible movie and even if it isn't
totally working it can at least be fun
to have a laugh right still a life's too
short to abide in Fury to movies when
there's so much Choice up there and to
that point the following films all hinge
themselves on reveals that were
ill-advised at best if we're being kind
the moment these dud reveals dropped it
became impossible to take what remained
of the film seriously at all so with
that in mind then I'm Andrew from what
culture and here are 10 horror movie
reveals so bad you almost walked out
number 10 Brahms is a demonic Spirit
Brahms the boy too throughout the first
boy movie it's presented the bronze is a
boy who died in a house fire 20 years
ago and whose Spirit now resides within
a porcelain doll of course the big
reveal of the movie is that bronze is
actually very real and very alive and I
spent however many years living in the
walls of his family's home that made for
a fun twist in what was admittedly a
fairly fun horror film so when Brahms
The Boy 2 rolled around there was some
mild anticipation that this could
likewise be a decent offering and then
well then we get this sequel's big twist
here the final at twist sees that there
is no adult Brahms lurking in the
shadows and instead the Brahms doll is
indeed possessed by some sort of demon
as shown when the little porcelain son
of a gun has his face smashed off and we
see his real Visage not only did this
reveal ruin the boy too but it also
managed to take a giant dump on its
predecessor nice one number nine the
Cults of thorn Halloween the curse of
Michael Myers the title of this video
could apply to numerous films in the
Halloween franchise but most fans
patients truly run out by the time the
sixth movie Halloween the curse of
Michael Myers was released after
Halloween 5 the Revenge of Michael Myers
ended with Michael being sprung from
prison by a mysterious man in Black
Halloween 6 left forward six is to
reveal that Michael was abducted by a
cult called The Cult of Thorne this cult
is also a real to be behind Michael's
compulsion to kill having given him a
curse that being the curse of Thorne
which compels him to hunt down and
murder his family members on Halloween
night this is head smackingly stupid
stuff and precisely what you get when a
horror franchise runs out of ideas but
feels weirdly obliged to explain its
Monster's Origins and yet wasn't the
beauty of the original Halloween that
Michael was an unexplained Merchant of
death by demystifying him and doing so
in such a profoundly idiotic way this
was tantamount to character
assassination poor old Michael Myers
number eight Lisa hallucinated her
Escape 47 meters down 47 meters down had
one of those late stage plot twists that
just about everybody off but if you
actually did walk out of this film you
probably regretted it afterwards so the
film it follows sisters Kate and Lisa
who end up trapped in the shark cage at
the bottom of the ocean with oxygen
supplies dwindling and sharks circling
them at the end of the movie Kate and
Lisa seemingly managed to escape and get
rescued from the water before it's
revealed that Lisa is actually
hallucinating from nitrogen Narcosis and
is indeed still at the bottom of the
deep blue sea oh and her sister died
during an earlier encounter with a great
white shark quite the bummer just as the
camera starts panning out and 47 meters
down seems Prime to end on an
infuriating down a Twist Lisa actually
is rescued by Coast Guard divers and the
film then abruptly ends writer directed
Johannes Roberts evidently knew what he
was doing here but for anyone who just
straight up turned off the movie Once
the twist was revealed they missed out
on the sort of happiest ending that
followed number seven the lipstick face
demon Insidious now there are absolutely
some brilliantly effective chilling
moments earlier in Insidious most
notably when the lipstick face demon
suddenly appears behind Josh totally out
of nowhere in the middle of a scene but
that early glimpse of the demon only
further proves the virtue of brevity in
horror because once we get a more
prolonged look at the guy he becomes
near impossible to take seriously in the
film's finale when Josh enters the
Purgatory realm known as the further to
rescue his son we get a considerably
better look at the lipstick face demon
who through repeats the exposure makes
his resemblance to Star Wars Darth Maul
ever more clear the often excellent
James 1 bizarrely shoots the whole
sequence here like a goofy funfair
haunted house which runs entirely
counter to the genuine creepiness of the
Demons fleeting earlier appearance
number six black goo mind control black
Christmas 2019
2019's black Christmas do-over didn't
exactly set high expectations from the
jump but plums such mind-only stupid
deaths by the end that became an actual
chore to finish the film there are
certainly worse ideas in update in the
sorority set slasher to confront
contemporary issues like hazing and
campus assault culture but Sofia to
Carl's movie goes wildly off the deep
end in its third act it's eventually
revealed that the murderous Frat Boys of
black Christmas are in fact being
possessed by a magic black goo which
pours out of a bust of the University's
founder Calvin Hawthorne allowing his
Spirit to take control of the boys in
order to murder Troublesome women yep
that's a thing it's a jaw-dropily stupid
Revelation that forces the movie to
collapse in on the weight of its own
silliness while also undermining
anything serious a script might be
trying to say about sexual assault
academic institutions magical black goo
really could it not just be a cult or
something except for the cult of thorn
of course number five the director is
the killer The Last Broadcast
broadcast is a mostly great found
footage film which suffered the bad luck
of being overshadowed by a certain Blair
Witch Project it also helped that the
film sensed around documentary filmmaker
David Lee investigating the murders of
several men in the New Jersey Pine
Barrens concludes with an absolute
clanger of a twist ending I know I too
can't ever say the words Pi Barons
without not thinking of that magnificent
Sopranos episode anyway The Last
Broadcast David eventually receives
footage that apparently contains the
identity of the killer of this tale and
so he employs a data retrieval expert to
reconstruct the diamond images on the
tape at this point it's revealed that
the Killer is David himself with the
perspective suddenly shifting to third
person David then kills the expert and
disposes of her body before continuing
on with the next part of his documentary
The End clearly the filmmakers here
wanting to end things with a gotchier
rug pull but between the goofiness of
this reveal and portraying the film's
own rules with a sudden change in
perspective it brought an otherwise bone
chilling horror film to an utter dud of
a climax number four It's Supernatural
after all the last exorcism The Last
Exorcism is a really really solid found
footage movie if you can forgive its
overex shambles of a final 10 minutes
the movie revolves around down and out
Minister cut Marcus who lets a
documentary crew film what will be his
final exorcism on a young girl named
Nell Switzer now's father believes her
to be possessed by the devil having
allegedly slaughtered livestock and
miraculously Fallen pregnant but near
the end of the story Marcus realizes
Nell isn't possessed at all rather she's
embarrassed about getting pregnant after
sleeping with a local boy but because
the film apparently can't end there
there's one final twist the boy in
question is gay and hasn't had sex with
him now Marcus promptly returns to the
Suites of Farmhouse to find an occult
ritual taking place with Nell birthing a
demonic entity in the final scene Marcus
runs towards the ritual with a cross his
dwindling Faith restored while the
filmmakers are all killed off by the
family in the chaos the more restrained
ending that now really was just a woman
struggling to come to terms with her
repressed sexuality were then made for a
far more interesting and unexpected
finale while the actual reveal ends up
feeling like something the studio
forcibly stapled on at the end number
three the CGI Darkness Monster House on
Haunted Hill in 1999 1999 House on
Haunted Hill remake has a solid cast and
some genuinely excellent production
Elements which apparently left nothing
for the climax as the film settles for
an abject eyesore of a final monster the
ending sees the remaining characters
fleeing from a shape-shifting creature
comprised of all the spirits in the
house not a bad idea in theory yet the
VFX based end result is ultimately
horrifying in all the wrong ways
anamorphous ditch or blob that's not in
any way scary the creature's final form
shoots for abstract but feels more
sci-fi than anything even except in the
film's age critics and audience alike
dinged it for his god-awful VFX at the
time of its release and they were
absolutely right to do so for a movie
that otherwise had a keen sense of style
and atmosphere this bro all of how
Southern haunted hell's Moody momentum
slamming to a dead stop number two will
Benson I Still Know What You Did Last
Summer I still know what he did last
summer it's a fun enough popcorn slash a
sequel even if it is clearly a low
effort cash in on the original film
surprise box of his success but that
final twist yeah it sure is something
else right near the end of this sequel
Julie's friend will Benson reveals
himself to be the secret second
antagonist of the piece well to the
point he's the son of Ben Willis the
fisherman who stole Julian a friend
throughout both films by this point to
hammer this home for the cheap seats
will point out to Julie that he
playfully hid the truth in plain sight
given that will Benson also means well
Benson
I see what you did there
except it is the campy shloki cult
classic it's been reclaimed as today I
still know what he did last summer it is
a fun movie if you don't take it too
seriously but considering how
straight-faced the film actually plays
this reveal it's one reveal which leaves
most of us groaning on an initial
viewing number one spider Pennywise it's
1990. to be specific this particular
reveal had many changing their Channel
rather than walking out of the movie
theater per se you know what would be
made for TV rather than for the big
screen Tim Curry gives a mesmerizing
performance in the 1998 miniseries as
Pennywise the Dancing Clown don't get
that wrong but the entire thing falls
apart when he dips out ahead of the
finale and is replaced with this
monstrosity anyone who's read Stephen
King's Epic Novel will be aware that
Pennywise takes the form of a gigantic
spider for its final battle with the
losers Club a concept which was
ultimately too ambitious for this 12
million adaptation to support the spider
looks awful to be kind a janky practical
effect which lacks Menace and feels more
at home in a low ramp B movie than a
serious-minded horror film King himself
perhaps put it best but he described a
large animatronic spider prop as three
Chevy headlights on the bottom of a
wheelbarrow despite costing 200 thousand
dollars four months of production time
the prop ends it on an unintentionally
comical note which could be further from
the genuinely terrifying Menace of
Corey's performance up to that point
I'll repeat viewings you're just better
off turning the movie off 10 minutes
before the end so that's our 10 horror
movie reveals so bad year almost walked
