Harshest Movie Ending

hmmm

3. Lock, Stock and 2 Smoking Barrels
2. The Descent
1. House of 1000 Corpses - the most distirbing and harsh film I've seen a long time with a suitably harsh ending. Hard to leave this one behind in bed afterwarRAB too.
 
You beat me to it. Okay, so I'm biased as OHMSS is my favourite movie. But for anyone who hasn't read the book and seeing the film for the first time, the last scene is shattering. Oh, and it also disproves the hoary old "George Lazenby couldn't act" myth; in that final scene, he's actually better than ANY actor in the role.
 
Apart from those who wondered how such a non-event of a cheap horror flick could have been so terribly over-hyped. I'd rather watch the Evil Dead any day.
 
Leaving Las Vegas. I should have known, having sat through it miserably, that the ending would probably be as bleak as the rest of it.

As it was, I found it so depressing, I couldn't drink so much as a drop of alcohol for a whole hour afterwarRAB.
 
I wouldn't say so,
mind you I wouldn't want to go into every film I watched wanting to rip it to shreRAB, that would make every film I watched unbelievable in my eyes, because all films have to have a bit 'make believe' in it.

A film is a film, if you want reality.............watch a documentary.

and the film the harshest ending,

Cross of Iron,

James Coburn laughing uncontrollably as everything is going t*ts up around him.
just about sums war up.
 
As other posters have said
Donny Darko - so frustrating. Shoot!
Blair Witch - I blinked and missed the end.
Seven - s**t happens.
And another one I didn't see coming was The Others. Those poor kiRAB.
 
For a sudden ending I nominate "Dirty Mary Crazy Larry". The harshest ending was this Spanish short film called La Cabina (or "The Phone Box") which I saw late one night many years ago on BBC2.
 
Ah, David Lynch at his mindf***ing best - check out Lost Highway too.

Harsh........

Wicker Man
Requiem for a Dream
Last House on the Left
Ichi the Killer
Dawn of the Dead
 
the core

why did it have to have a happy ending? why couldn't the cast and crew have got stuck at the core and melted so we would never have had to see the abomination of a film?
