Movies With Disturbing Endings

[Bizarro_Stormy]

Does The Devil In Miss Jones qualify?

I dunno...

Weren't there quite a few happy endings in that movie..?

You've got to be kidding, Shady. "Everyone Else" except a few kids... remember?

You are talking about a movie with children cheerfully skipping through a wondrous and celestial landscape at the end, implying that humanity is saved and has a favorable future ahead of it. The ending is one of affirmation. Now compare that to Threads or Testament, or any of the other films I mentioned.

The ending of The Vanishing was a big WTF for me.

Ex Machina had a sort of dark ending but it was a good ending for the story.

Hey, you've got to break some eggs to make an omelette.

The ultimate in disturbing endings:

 

[GO-NAD!]

Seven...now that was disturbing.

 

[AcuDefTechGuy]

It disturbs me immensely anytime the main characters die at the end of the movie.

 

[shadyJ]

A movie unwilling to dispense with its characters for the sake of the story is a poor drama.

Return of the Jedi, bluray had a disturbance in the ending...

Vanishing Point (1971) the ending was disturbing I was routing for the charterer and it had to have downer of and ending. Good road film if your into those sort of things?

 

[Defcon]

Jacob's Ladder. Actually the whole movie is disturbing and the ending is rather beautiful in a way but still disturbing.

 

[andyblackcat]

The Departed (2006)

Pretty much whole film is disturbing. I can only watch it once in a while.

Then You shouldn't watch Game of Thrones.... or read the books

Unfortunately, great shows can still have disturbing endings.

Primal Fear I can see, but Witness for the Prosecution?! Have you seen that movie!?

Yes, it's been decades but the ending really shocked me.
Great cast, acting, and story.
Highly recommended.
Cheers, Mac

The baby shark dying in JAWS 3 was upsetting.
