    The Coen Brothers have done this twice in recent films, and I didn't care for it either time. The first was in No Country for Old Men. The second was in A Serious Man.

    I think Darkness Falls had one of those, don't know if anyones mentioned it yet.

    If I remember correctly they just drive into a black tunnel and the screen shows "Darkness Falls"/end movie.

    Pretty wack movie.

    That may be the worst movie ever made.

    Wasn't the ending to "A Boy and His Dog" rather abrupt? It's been a long time since I've seen that movie.

    Layer Cake ending.

    F*** that.

    I definitely fall in the camp that was pissed off by that g4y ending. I don't care if you think it was clever, shocking, original, whatever you want to call it, F that ending.

    I think the Return of the King may be the most opposite to this that you can possibly do.

    Yeah, I just have to reiterate this. It really can't be stressed enough how god-awful this movie was.

    La Haine (Hate)... Great French movie with Saïd Taghmaoui (Lost, Vantage Point, Sleeper Cell) with an unexpected ending... If you haven't watched the movie I recommend to watch it (skip the Ending video below)
