The Uninvited Twist Ending

The Uninvited released in movie theaters on July 30, 2009. The hybrid genre movie deals out a twist ending resembling The Usual Suspects movie. Sucker Punch Emily Browning plays a young girl attempting to research the truth about her mother's death.

The Uninvited twist ending is clever since we never expect the twist. If you haven't watched The Uninvited movie yet, beware that we will discuss the spoiler to reveal the twist ending.

***Twist Ending***

Anna (Emily Browning) attempted to commit suicide soon after her mother died in a fire. We see Anna get discharged in the movie setup. Her sister Alex (Arielle Kebbel) helps to investigate the father's new wife Rachel (Elizabeth Banks), the former nurse who cared for the ill-stricken mother. 

Anna is a troubled soul. She accuses Rachel as the killer. In her fantasy world, Anna determines that Rachel has wrecked every family prior to hers. In The Uninvited twist ending, we discover that Anna is delusional. She kills Rachel with a knife. Her father Steven (David Strathairn) shares the truth that her mother and sister passed away on the night of the fire. 

Anna learns her actions, though an accident, resulted in the fire. He knocked over a lantern that started the fire. The mother and sister died in the fire. The twist ending throws out another curve ball at the audience. We begin to see similar names inside the mental institute. The same exact name that Anna think is Rachel's previous name is planted on a door, "Mildred Kemp". A patient questions whether Anna accomplished her goal.

We have two possible twist endings. Anna may have already plotted to kill Rachel. Or she is suffering from schizophrenia? The twist ending resembles The Usual Suspects and Sucker Punch. The major plot points are hidden until the movie end. In the twist ending, Anna appears to have settled a score. She never actually recovered from his mental condition. An alternate scenario is that Anna knew exact what she wanted to do. 

The Uninvited twist ending is consistent with Shutter Island twist ending. The two movies explored the truth about the events that caused their mental condition. The real plot is hidden away to keep us on the sidelines. In any case, The Uninvited twist ending is clever because we assume the movie is another The Grudge.    

Rest Stop twist ending

B grade horror flick Rest Stop released on October 17, 2006. Nicole Carrow (Jamie Alexander) and her boyfriend Jess Hilts (Joey Mendicino) decide to leave their hometown to Hollywood. At a dark rest stop, a real horror story unfolds.

Rest Stop twist ending is never expected, though by the time we discover the twist the interest in the movie already flamed out in the midpoint. If you haven't watched Rest Stop, beware that will be dishing out the twist ending spoiler.

***Twist Ending***

Nicole is trying to keep Officer Michael Deacon (Joey Lawrence) alive. He is severely wounded, profusely bleeding out on the ground. The killer is keeping the two hostage inside a rest stop restroom. Nicole is missing a few of her fingers, which the killer pried off through the door.  

After a night of terror, the truth about Nicole's fate is uncovered. In the next morning, she shouts and screams from inside a rest room. She tries to seek help.  

A person hears a woman's voice. We assume the serial killer murdered Jess, Officer Deacon, and Nicole the previous night. Nonetheless, the murders occurred long ago. The twist ending is that Nicole, Officer Michael Deacon, Jess, and others are missing people. Their pictures are posted on a nearby pole along with missing runaways. 

The serial killer murdered people who stopped at the rest stop. Nicole never realized she died until the end. Her soul keeps reliving the nightmare of the night her boyfriend got killed, the police office died, and when the serial killer took her life. 

Rest Stop is a B grade flick you can find a Blockbusters. You can also purchase the movie with clicking on the image. Rest Stop twist ending answers the catalyst of what happens to Jess and Nicole. We figure out the twist ending is a resolution to their murders. Good twist ending in a low budget horror movie.
