    That's not really a twist.

    One of my favorites is Lucky Number Slevin.

    I feel like I'm ruining it just to mention it - lulls you with its literal and figurative 80's slasher-genre campi-ness then ....

    Just saw that movie ,Spiral, with the nerdy guy from Avatar and Grandma's Boy...it was pretty slow through most of the movie so I was flipping back and forth between it...I was quite surprised with the last 20 minutes of it. It kind of made me wish I would've watched all of it uniterrupted.

    I keep seeing people list Lucky Number Slevin. I didn't watch it when it came out cause a cousin of mine said it was stupid. I might check it out. I'm not afraid of scary movies but I really can't stomach gory ones. I want to check out the movie Seven, but I heard its pretty gory. Can anyone confirm?

    Nah, Seven is like a tone downed version of saw, but more suspensful.

    I disagree about the suspenseful part. I thought Seven was a very obvious movie, I was not surprised by any part of the movie

    I forgot about that, it was a pretty big twist

    After watching that movie for a 2nd time, I think it might have been the best movie of last year

    And yet Saw kept you in suspense?

    The first Saw was a great movie, the ending at the end was a huge surprise. I saw the ending to Seven from a mile away

    I have to 3rd Primal Fear. I did not see it coming at all. What a great actor Edward Norton is.

    My contribution? 2 girls 1 cup. Cmon you didn't expect what was about to happen did you?

    Hmm, never really thought of it I guess. I don't know, didn't seem like a twist but more of a surprise. What was more surprising was the Mark Wahlberg seen near the very end. Good movie, though.

    I just saw the flick April Fool's Day from the 80s last night, it has sort of an unexpected twist.

    The first Scream was a good one although the second two were predictable. I'll still see the fourth installment coming out next year.

    The Skeleton Key, Fallen, Friday the 13th, The Wicker Man and High Tension were some other good ones.
