The Thing (2011) twist ending

The recent The Thing (2011) movie is supposedly a remake of the 1982 John Carpenter horror classic. In the newest The Thing, the twist ending reveals otherwise, that we are watching the plot unfold into a clever  movie with a twist. If you haven't watched The Thing (2011), please beware the ending will be revealed.

***Movie Spoiler***

The Thing (2011) features a clever twist ending. Kate and Sam leave the spaceship. They destroyed what they think is left of the Alien virus. Sam enters the vehicle. He waits for Kate to get into the vehicle too. 

Kate surveys Sam, hesitating to sit beside him in the snow vehicle. She tells him about how she knew he was human. On the way to the spaceship, Kate looks at Sam's earring and smiles. 

The Thing is unable to replicate any metal objects. Sam must've been infected inside the spaceship. He touches the wrong ear, definitely revealing to the moviegoer he is no longer Sam. 

Kate apologizes to Sam. She torches him alive. Sam's human shell and The Thing burn. We assume kills the remaining Alien virus. 

Back at camp, a helicopter lands on the ground. The pilot calls out for camp members. Lars, who we thought died, frantically runs outside. He is acting hysterical, telling the pilot they must go after the dog. 

The same Husky dog is featured in the opening sequence to the original The Thing (1982). The Thing (2011) twist ending conveys to us that we are watching a prequel to the original movie. 

Lars and the pilot will continue to shoot at the dog carrying the Alien Virus. Eventually, the helicopter will crash. The dog will make it into another camp to infect everyone except for a few characters, with one being Kurt Russell. 

The Thing (2011) twist ending is that this movie is a prequel to the original horror classic released in 1982. Every event leads us up to the ending, and then another round of Alien infestations in The Thing (1982). 

The camp is later visited in The Thing (1982) movie. The Thing (2011) twist ending is obvious to horror movie fans who watched The Thing (1982) version. 

The Thing (2011) is a great movie with a twist ending we never expected until the dog comes running out and Lars and the helicopter go after the Alien virus. Thus, the plot makes sense that this Alien virus can infect any living host.

Silent Hill twist ending

Silent Hill arrived in the movie box office in 2006. The metaphysical movie features a twist ending that explains the movie plot. If you haven't watched Silent Hill, then we recommend you avoid reading the twist ending spoiler below.

***Movie Spoiler***

Rosa Da Silver fights against the evil town people and the monsters that reside in the Silent Hill town, an evil underworld. She has no clue about what is causing the unexplainable events to occur. Rosa's husband Christopher goes looking for his wife and daughter in the deserted Silent Hill town. Silent Hill is a town that previously burned down due to a major fire.    

In the Silent Hill twist ending, the moviegoer finally discovers Rosa and her daughter Sharon are dead. The two died in a car accident (the turning point), which is the reason their souls are capable of moving about the subplanes of The Astral Hell. The evil astral beings and town people remain trapped in Silent Hill because they continue to channel their hate into revenge.  

Rosa could never communicate with Christopher. We think Christopher will eventually hear Rosa shouting on the other side of the wall. However, Rosa and the policewoman, Cybil Bennett are trapped in another dimension.   

The twist ending reveals that Rosa and her daughter are dead. Cybil, Rosa, and Sharon died in a collision on an icy road leading up to Silent Hill. Without knowing so, the three characters assimilated into the town with deceased citizens who died in the previous fire.

Rosa and Sharon's point in view (darkness ambience) inside their home show the two are indeed deceased. Christopher probably felt their presence, but he couldn't see his wife and daughter in human form. The clever twist ending explained the movie plot, conveying to us that only the dead can see the true evil from within Silent Hill.  

Devil twist ending

John Erick Dowdle's The Devil movie features a good twist ending that is rather shocking. We never expect the movie ending to twist the movie plot in another direction. If you haven't watched the Devil movie, then stop reading this twist ending assessment now.

***Movie Spoiler***

The Devil twist ending is consistent with most M. Night Shyamalan movies. The moviegoer is always treated to a twist ending. Most moviegoers identify M. Night as Mr. Twist Ending.  

Essentially, M. Night sponsored the Devil movie because his star power is capable of propelling a new movie into blockbuster status. The Devil movie features a frightening twist ending which ties up all loose ends in the plot design. We see the Devil movie as a homage to M. Night's movies.  

Detective Bowden's wife and son died in an explained car accident four years prior. Bowden watches the events in the elevator from the security control room. 

The Mechanic (Logan Marshall Green) is the last person to survive in the elevator. Every elevator occupant died in a mysterious way. Thus, the characters are sinful humans that alerted the devil. 

The twist ending in the Devil movie is the old woman (Jenny O'Hara) resurrecting herself as the Devil in flesh. The devil speaks through the old woman, telling the Mechanic that he is ready to take the sinful young man. 

The Devil rises up with dark eyes. Most moviegoers will find a Devil sighting as an eerie scene in any movie. The Mechanic is imaginably frightened. He admits to his past sin, confessing a car accident that killed two people. The Mechanic leaves a note on the car to say he was so sorry. 

Bowden begins to believe Ramirez's Devil claim. It is one day that is very odd. Everything wrong resides inside the elevator, packed with sinful people who could care less about others. In the twist ending, the Devil frightens the Mechanic enough to make him change. 

Bowden escorts the Mechanic to jail. He reveals his anger to the wrongdoer, but then forgives the man for killing his wife and son. The twist ending is show that forgiving another person can keep hate from manifesting inside. 

Hate is the root of evil. The Devil twist ending shocks the moviegoer with revealing the Devil in the flesh. The old woman is basically a decoy, a human shell that carries the Devil. The elevator occupant are sinners whose souls belong with the Devil. Nonetheless, the Mechanic confesses his sin and defeats the Devil in the process. 

The Devil twist ending is satisfying. The twist ending answers the movie plot questions. In the Devil movie, the plot twist exposes the sinners to deal out the ultimate movie ending. Bowden learns the truth about his wife and son. 

The movie twist ending reveals the Devil in flesh taking sinful souls. Nevertheless, one person is saved after confessing his sin and asking for forgiveness. Detective Bowden forgives the person who killed his wife and son in a car accident. The Devil loses the battle to take all sinful souls.
