The Mollusk

How are people supposed to know what films are gonna be spoiled until they open the thread and potentially have a load of amazing film moments ruined for them? You should probably use spoiler tags.

If you read a spoiler before you see the film just forget about the spoiler and you'll be all set.

Or the Sopranos example, there's four series or so isn't there, that's plenty of TV to get through and forget what happens at the end. Even then the spoiler sounds like a quite obvious conclusion.

Yes, an absolute cracker of an ending to one of the great gangster flicks.

Cracking theme tune too!

I can't really think of anything decent to add at the mo, but do wanna say that the ending of The World's End - which is not one of my fave movies by any means - is a fun and refreshing surprize after the rather dour hour and a half or so that precedes it.

Egyptian Feast

The last ten minutes of Head and Repo Man are amazing, plus both have great songs to end on (two in the latter film, where the wonderful 'Reel Ten' by The Plugz is succeeded by Iggy's title song and the credits going the wrong way).

beanheadmcginty

I rewatched The Taking of Pelham 123 the other night (original obviously) and that final freeze frame on Walter Matthau's gotcha face is hard to beat as far as I'm concerned.

The ending of Magnolia where
Spoiler alert
she breaks the fourth wall is great and makes me smile. Especially as her smile is in perfect synch with the guitar lick. Apparently it was unplanned but I'm not convinced.

Michael Caine has at least two with The Italian Job and Get Carter.

The Fly (1958)

Yes, it's hokey AF, but this surreal cinematic denoument terrified me to the very core of my soul as a little kid. It still chills me now; even more than anything from Cronenburg's brilliant remake. It's just so weird.

Electra Glide In Blue (1973) where the copper

goes after the hippies to give them their driving licence back, and gets both barrels out of the rear window of their camper.
