The SINGLE most predictable

ending in a film I have ever seen. This film is utter crap. Boring, unbelievable, pointless, POINTLESS storytelling. Imagine In Bruges with two charisma-less leads and then FOR NO REASON The Wicker Man third act and then A Serbian Film "shocking" ending. Just so sorry I wasted my time watching this. Ignore people who say this film is "brilliant." It isn't. It's garbage.

Oh and the ending is more predictable that any you can think of. Go ahead. Think of a predictable ending in a movie you saw. This one is worse. Promises.

I exactly thought of the same films that you have mentioned while watching this film: In Bruges, The Wicker Man and A Serbian Film! Especially the ending stolen from A Serbian Film is sooo obvious.

It had potential that didn't go anywhere.. shame

yeah, sure. for no reason whatsoever you knew the "hunchback" ending, even though no indication of something even remotely close to the end scene was given.

Yes, I thought it was the wife with the kid on her back , immediately.

Yep. There was definitely a piggyback sword-fight scene in A Serbian Film. And a large group of cult members standing around watching during the final shot. Oh, and multiple characters that had led the main character to his fate all bearing witness to the final act.
So predictable. I mean, couldn’t they at least have left out the raping of the main character’s son at the end, since they were blatantly ripping off A Serbian Film?

Wait...did none of those things happen in BOTH films? Oh, my bad. It was still an exact copy. Of the film it had nothing in common with. Just watch A Serbian Film again instead of this one. Obviously they are exactly the same.

It’s called an homage.

I don’t remember this , at all , in this film.

I was being a facetious a$$ in my response. The aforementioned scene only happens in A Serbian Film, which the OP decided to reference as a way to downplay Kill List’s final scene. Don’t get me wrong, there may be some slight similarities, but I found Kill List to be much smarter and re-visitable than A Serbian Film, though I do own both.

Kill List 9/10
A Serbian Film 7/10
