I love me some 'dark' endings. What are some of your favorites? Me? Blair Witch and Open Water. Go!

The Mist (2007). One of the better Stephen King adaptations already but this certainly works in its favor.

HENRY:PORTRAIT OF A SERIAL KILLER That was the first movie to enter my mind when reading the title of this thread. It Follows - not really disturbing in a visual sense and it leaves a lot to interpretation, but if you choose to believe that they did nothing and just decided to live with the curse for the rest of their lives, its pretty dark indeed. Not really a horror film, but the ending to No Country for Old Men is quite dark.

American Psycho ending. Some may argue 'not a horror' - I disagree

I seem to be in a minority of seeing the ending of The Mist as flawless victory.

Re: the Mist. Note to military, when you are going through a dense fog bank in search of survivors, bring along a megaphone.
Race With the Devil The Devils (if we consider it a horror film it is pretty bleak) Rosemary's Baby Invasion of the Body Snatchers 78
We could simply just say any US studio made film from around 1960-1975 is going to have a negative ending. Even the Exorcist ends with the two main priests dying.

Always thought the ending of Superstition (1982) was quite dark, oh and The Dorm that Dripped Blood (1982).

Drag Me to Hell's ending was awesome. Not particularly dark as it was played for comedy, but awesome nonetheless.

HENRY:PORTRAIT OF A SERIAL KILLER That was the first movie to enter my mind when reading the title of this thread. Great minds I guess shape25! To be honest, HENRY:PORTRAIT OF A SERIAL KILLER is dark from start to finish. It is a deeply troubling and unsettling film that hits all too close to home, even 30 years on since it was made. I have to say that I found Otis even more disturbing than Henry. I thought NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN was terrific and played along a lot like a Western in many ways. Chigurh is a character not easily forgotten!

It's not a favourite, as it's quite possibly the worst movie ending I've ever seen.
Drag Me to Hell
It's hard to believe the same director who made such a hateful and evil ending could also make something with so much heart as the Spider-Man trilogy.

And don't forget the Evil Dead trilogy. That's a mixture of dark and evil and lighthearted fun.

That movie had one of the stupidest endings ever. It made no sense. The situation was not dire enough for them all to unanimously decide for the guy to do what he did. And all without using any words? You're telling me there wouldn't be any discussion or at least one person not wanting that? It was so unrealistic and forced and purely made for shock value.
