Yeah, I didn’t appreciate being duped into thinking I was gonna see a properly sick remake by the trailers either. I’d more or less lost interest by the time the Ploppleganger showed up.

Yeah you should :3
It ain’t so different from the originals one but i found it to be better made.

I absolutely DUG the remake as well. Was very wary with the POV stuff, but it blew me away. For some reason, I can’t clearly remember the remake’s final scene though. Time to give it another watch.

I also liked the theatrical version ending of 1408 (the one where he lived). Just knowing that he finally found proof of life after death and that his wife heard it was very satisfying. The other version where he dies and is resorted to a jump scare at the end was cliched to the eyeballs

I’d have blown her head off way before the end

Too bad it wasn’t him

I like it also, there’s a music video for the song on the blu ray disc.

Lol yes indeed!

The Mist has the best ending indeed! But the most satisfying scene is hands down the death of Mrs. Carmody,

I have a split oppinion on that one
I would’ve preffered if it ended with a drive on to the sunset,but hey,at least it was original and had Down With the Sickness playing

I prefered the remake version of it.
It had that sort of surreal yet realistic tone that i just loved.
Tom Savini did a great job on the original but the remake wins it for me.

Thats what I loved about the ending of the Mist…About half the people I talked to hated it, and the other half loved it.

Also, I don’t know about satisfying, but the end of the original Cabin Fever when the guys come to pick up their rifle is pretty hilarious. Its not THE ending, but it was like WTH, hahaha.

I actually cheered at the end of Drag Me to Hell. It was awesome, I really didn’t expect it.

That’s cool. That’s their opinion. When I first read the story i was angry. It was so good but that open ending had me wanting more.

You will find that movies ending in the 10 Least Satisfying Horror Movie Endings article here at BD. I love the ending of the movie, since I read the book first, a changed shock ending was very welcome and actually a nice surprise.

I was angry leaving the theater. I was so broke @ the time. Allowed myself a movie every once in awhile. Didn’t like it @ all.

Spot on! & that’s what i loved about it. They gave up hope & then….. Bang! Soldiers & the lady no one wanted to leave with. So fucked up

Lol just said The Mist. So good.

And I loved the ending of The Mist.

I remember thinking it was real, or at least could have been, which is what made it so damn scary. I don’t believe in the supernatural, so I assumed they were just being harassed and attacked by other people. But even knowing it’s fake and going along with the witch idea is scary because of the way we’re seeing it.

Hell. Yes. That whole movie freaks me out, but the ending is for sure the “anticlimactic” climax of the whole thing. The only thing scarier than knowing there’s monsters in the dark is not knowing if there is or isn’t. And TBWP nailed it.

I love the ending to Jaws! It’s so relaxing after all of the craziness. Just finding out Hooper didn’t die is such a nice surprise. And even though the ocean is filled with plenty more deadly shit, we somehow know they’re going to make it back just fine.

And hell yes Jaws is a horror film. Any other opinion is wrong. =D

I also thought of Cronenberg’s The Fly after reading the title, but on second thought, I’m not sure I necessarily feel “satisfied” afterwards. I’m just kind of motionless and want to cry. I guess in the context of being cathartic it is? That was really the only way it could have ended. And Howard Shore’s score intensifies the drama like crazy. It might be my favorite movie of all time.

That’s one of the things I hated about Deadpool. Too much like a fairy tale. It would have been hilarious if he didn’t get her back after all of that.

John Carpenter’s The Thing maybe ambiguous but at the same time makes you guess who’s The Thing which many still ask along with other questions that John Carpenter intended that in the movie. The Fly probably had one of the best endings even if it’s heartbroken where Brundle Fly fuses with one of the telepods and it’s in agony that ask his girlfriend to kill which she had no choice, blasting its head into pieces.

Also add Sleepaway Camp for obvious reasons since the ending was one of the most shocking ones in any film. The Hitcher also comes to mind since the ending shows John Ryder’s final achievement of making Jim Halsey from a normal good kid to a cold killer.

It’s hard to top “Smile you son of a bitch!” NTM the beginning of Brody and Hooper’s exhausted swim back. I’m not really sure what else I could add as I tend to prefer bitter sweet or tragic endings to Horror films. While those endings can be great, I don’t believe they belong here.

I agree! BWP ending is fantastic! I was just curious if some people felt it was underwhelming.

But I remember my dad renting this for me and my friend and he convinced us it was real. totally freaked us out! Good times lol

Borgman, horror movies rarely scare/freak me out (not for many many years) but the BLAIR WITCH’s ending where we see the guy facing the corner as the bitchy girl screams and presumably is killed is one of the scariest, freaky endings ever IMO.

What did the son do though? xD

I can understand what you are saying, in that the military showing up seems like some kind of “deus ex machina” ending, where leaving that out would imply that the world is doomed, an even bleaker outcome.
But I think that the real point was that the father *SPOILER* killed everyone, even his own child (the worst fate a parent can imagine) just seconds before what seems like a solution to the problem arrived, making his murders actually unnecessary, but it was too late to do anything about it. Which is horrifying to think about, for most people.
