Can you film folks recommend films with good twist endings? Any recommendation would be appreciated, regardless of how obvious a suggestion it may seem. I haven't seen many movies. And obviouslt no spoilers.

What was the best concert you've been to?
-- Probably Sade. It was just so sexy and relaxing.
Going into a film knowing it has a twist ending seems to defeat the purpose, no?
Anyway, here's one:

How about anything by that Shyamalan guy?
Spoiler alert: They all suck.
Bob LaRitchie, Brian's Friend
or they are good and you guys are jerks.
Palin was right - you're all a bunch of haters.

Memento is the best one I know of.
Craig... That dick.
Here's a list of enjoyable, suspenseful thrillers. Some in the list have twist endings, some do not. Maybe I'm stretching the term of a thriller, I dunno.
3 Days of the Condor
Snake Eyes
Blow Out
The Killing
Kiss Me Deadly
Point Blank
Enemy of the State
Deliverance
I liked the one where all the bad stuff was done by the guy's own split personality. What was that called again? Ahh right, "Kickboxer," it was definitely Kickboxer.
Check out Seven and The Usual Suspects if you haven't already seen them.
I'm going with "Funny Bones". Not really a suspenseful thriller, but still has a good twist ending you might not see coming.
The crying game is a dude!
Also, there is a guy with his cock out at the end of Teenwolf. I can't say it's a twist ending, but I can say that you don't see it coming. heh heh heh. double entendre motherfucker.
David Mamet's thrillers are great, and chock-full-'a-twists.
If you haven't seen The Spanish Prisoner, see it now, and plan on watching it again soon. Even better the second time, when you can really groove on the mechanics of the plot.
His first movie, House of Games, is almost as good, and features amazing performances from Lindsay Crouse, Joe Mantegna, the late, great J.T. Walsh, and Ricky Jay, before Ricky Jay was cool. Plus the story was co-authored by (Dr.) Johnathon Katz!
Two of my favorite movies, period.
Diabolique, Lost Highway, Mulholland Drive, Cache, Crying Game
Check out IMDB, keyword "twist endings"
I'M GOIN TO SHABOOMS!!!!
I'm so old...
how old are you?
I'm so old that my first thought was, "THE STING!"
I'll second Ilis's super-secret suggestion. One of the best ever.

I agree, but would emphatically add Homocide to this, especially given the thread title.
Note that this is the David Mamet movie Homocide, not the tv show.
Homicide. Homocide is a whole other thing.
Sorry, thought we were in the "Hate Language" thread.
See Homicide. Seriously.
I haven't seen that one yet! Thanks for the reminder.
