I suppose so in regards to Psycho...but I just found it obvious because they never actually showed Norman's Bates mother , just head him talking to her in the distance....
1. Sleepaway Camp (very jaw dropping twist ending that I didn't see coming!)
2. The Others
3. The Uninvited
4. House at the End of the Street.
5. The Visit
"Psycho" the twist was pretty obvious IMHO , but I do agree that "Psycho 2" was a good twist that I didn't see coming!
I also agree about "Friday the 13th" it was a pretty good twist but it was revealed before the ending.
Spoilers.....
What exactly was the "twist ending" ? It ended with the boys being found on the Island ...I wouldn't really call that a twist?
Yes I know I agreed with you , I was disagreeing to the original post.
That would be impossible for Jessica to to try every single code on the key pad! and even if she tried to do that there was a big risk of her being caught ...Simon would surely catch her ... even if she did it when he was out remember he had cameras ? She would have easily been caught.
As far why she didn't try to attack Simon, tie him up, drug him or etc...she actually DID hit him on the head and tie him up and him earlier in the movie, trying to force him to give her the code to the door... but Robin (The other girl who was being held prisoner in the room) had been brainwashed by Simon and attacked her...
Robin also tells Jessica later that night that there was another girl named Megan that Simon and kidnaped in the past who kept trying to escape, and Robin had been forced to kill her as a "punishment" for not trying hard enough to stop her.
This probably scared Jessica a lot.
Also, remember Simon had mentioned earlier in the movie that if she killed him she would end up dying down there with him.. if Simon was dead there would be no more food for one thing...so her and Robin would have eventually starved to death since they still would have been stuck in the room.
In regards to stealing Simon's cell phone, they actually never showed him with a cell phone that I can remember? I mean I assume he probably had one somewhere... but my guess is he didn't have it down in the basement... or even if he did it I'm sure it would have been well hidden or the screen would have been locked.
I thought the same thing! Where were Jessica's family ? Simon had only written a fake email to her fiancée Evan pretending that she had left him for another guy...but what about her parents? I mean even if Jessica had starting seeing someone else why would she not have still been in touch with her parents? She was gone for months! surely her parents would have contacted Evan to find out why they hadn't been able to reach their daughter or heard from her? Are we really supposed to believe that Jessica had no other family or friends at all trying to contact her all that time?!! Or what about her clients? Surely somebody would have reported her missing to the police? Jessica had also left her phone behind, wouldn't that also seam strange ? Evan mentioned how she never goes anywhere without her phone...so even if he believed that she had left him why would she not still take her phone with her?
Evan's friend Tyler was a cop and was concerned about Jessica's disappearance but didn't he also find it strange that nobody else reported her missing?
That was a major plot hole and very bad writing.
So it's basically in 2 parts... part 1 is a prequel to The wizard of OZ story and part 2 (which will be coming out next year) is more or less a remake of The wizard of OZ ...but told from the witches perspective. it's basically her "side of the story."
I have to disagree with that, I think Peyton knew how her husband was and was already a Psycho as well- this just escalated it more. She had no "right" to do what she did.
Well as I said do some research and you will see. I was also confused so I did some research and many others were confused too but yes it was confirmed this version does not follow the 1939 movie.
I will agree it is a bit strange they decided to do it this way , but yes do some research and watch the movie and you will see what I mean. Also, The 1995 "Wicked" book also does NOT follow the 1939 movie , it is a prequel to L. Frank Baum The Wonderful Wizard of Oz book....so I guess the movie decided to follow the original book as well instead of the play.
The movie version is is more of an adaption of the book not the play. I saw some clips of the Broadway play it is very different. They use references from the book in the new movie as well as the characters, that's why they look nothing like the ones in the movie!
