I don't believe nobody has mentioned "Wild Things".

*****SPOILERS******

The movie starts with Matt Dillon being sued because he supposedly harassed one of his students but then the movies evolves to a thriller where everyone is being deceived and becomes a psychological film.

Sorry for my english but I'm not an native english speaker...

Twists and 180s are completely different things leandro. Wild Things just had a few twists but never 180s.

I think a lot of people missed the whole point of this thread...

It's not about a twist in the plot, it's about a complete change of genre in the middle of the film.

I know of a LOT of people that went and saw FDTD NOT knowing a thing about the movie and thought the WHOLE film was going to be a crime drama. When Salma vamps out and turns the crime-drama into horror-survival, THAT is a 180 they never saw coming!
