Need DVD Recommendations for Movies with endings like Signs
I know it's a little vague but I was wondering if anyone has recommendations for movies that have endings like those found in The Sixth Sense, Signs, The Usual Suspects, The Shawshank Redemption just to name a few.
Thanks ahead of time

Body Heat: a terrific noir from 1980 directed by Lawrence Kasdan. Great twist ending.
How about a little film called "Psycho"?
Brazil has many endings and all are surprising and good.
Blade Runner has the best missed chance at a great twist ending (
)
I also like the twist at the end of "No Way Out" with Costner.

Here's a few to try on for size:
The Others (Directed by Alejandro Amenábar and starring Nicole Kidman)
The Devil's Backbone aka El Espinazo del Diablo (Directed by Guillermo del Toro)
The Eye aka Jian gui (Directed by Oxide Pang Chun and Danny Pang)
All are great movies in the same vein as The Sixth Sense. The Devil's Backbone and The Eye will have subtitles, but give them a chance. I'm sure you'll like them.

Frailty is a good one.
Planes, Trains and Automobiles
Seven kinda has an ending like those.
Oddly no recommendations yet for Memento. See that one.
The Shining.
Suicide Kings- Dirt cheap at wal-mart.

"Minority Report" is along the same lines in terms of endings. I think so anyway.
I loved Signs btw. I watched it the other night. It's the only movie i've seen that actually scared me.

How 'bout the Harrison Ford duo of PRESUMED INNOCENT and WHAT LIES BENEATH?
Let's throw in JACOB'S LADDER and JUST CAUSE for good measure while we're at it...

You mean Sixth Sense didn't?
