Any films or dramas that have had one of those "wow didn't see that coming" moments


Recommended Posts

I was chatting to some friends and we ended up discussing surprise moments in flims/dramas, so I just wondered if anyone else wanted to share any.


The following were surprise moments for me


The Killing Series 1 (Danish one) - when Lund turns around and see "Sara 84" on Vaugen's sweatshirt


Sixth Sense - when you realise the character of Bruce Willis was dead all long


Manor des Source - when Cesar realises he caused the death of the son he did not know he had


Au wiedersehen Pet - when Oz gets up on stage and starts singing really well to the surprise of his friends (and me!)



Care to share?

The last episode of the first series of Broadchurch wher David Tennants character was walking towards the murderers house. We don't know which one it will be and its the combo of him walking trepeditiously down the road and through the house to the garage and then comes face to face .... Tingle down the spine. Series 2 didn't match up.

Bad Taste.

When the guy leans back against a door in a house where he's hiding, thinking he's escaped the mutant aliens, then a chainsaw pushes through the door from behind - appearing through the front of his face and sawing him in two up and down the middle.

Thanks for taking the time to share. It was interesting to see what others said.


Another two that I forgot to mention were the endings of the films "Leon" and "The Usual Suspects" - both endings came as a surprise to me.

About 12 years ago took a friend to see the digitally remastered release of Alien


Really didn't expect my friend to jump up in the air throwing popcorn everywhere and screaming like a little girlie when the Alien pops out of the chest.


He claimed he had seen it before but .... No excuse really is there 😳

Twitter went into meltdown when that happened (won't repeat)


Most unpopular character action ever - until Cecil got murdered.

It's a bit too late to complain about gratuity with GOT - it's been torture-porn and muff-shots all the way.

    • That said, organised displays could be on Saturday before and after and the actual day, and private ones could just not have the loud ones.  It’s all down to accessibility and people caring/not caring
    • The problem this year is that 5th November falls on a Wednesday. So some places will be bringing their "bonfire night" forward to Saturday 1st and some will be knocking it back to Saturday 8th and there'll probably be a few that just go with Wednesday 5th anyway. If you're doing a public display, having it on a weekend gets more crowds. Which basically means a solid week of fireworks.
    • Fireworks in this area do feel totally incessant at this time of year, almost every evening there is terrible noise. I feel great concern for wildlife, pets (I have a senior cat who hates them), as well as people who struggle with PTSD etc. Last year I even had people setting them off in front of my home. Tonight and yesterday evening have been particularly bad. Is there anything we can do as a community to prevent this? What action can we take? Surely we shouldn’t be expected to just put up with it every year for weeks on end! 
    • Does anyone know what time tonight's events, the second night of the new phenomenon of Halloween Fireworks, end? These do sound too major to be anything but large- scale organised events and they are loud, very loud. So anyone, for their own reasons, that dislikes or objects to this level of noise for the next x amount of hours, really has no choice in the matter! Could those addicted to loud bangs possibly have a kind of silent disco setup with the bangs sent through headphones, so the rest of us could be spared?
