I agree with you on From Dusk til Dawn. That switch is one of the reasons I didn't like that movie.
Office Space... From anti corporate flick to I don't know what happened
Star Wars: Phantom Menace...switches mid stream to a silly kids racing movie then back to a Star Wars movie.

Would Fight Club be considered a 180?

A lot of people hated From Dusk Till Dawn for it's approach, I loved it for that. In all honesty, I would love to see more horror movies take that approach.
A friend of mine is a big fan of The Excorcist and she made an interesting point: imagine if people went into the movie with no book or preview BG. For a lot of the movie, it seems as though the movie is about a young teen girl dealing with the problems of a divorce and maybe a mental disorder.

For Pete's sake! You can't do that in a film, it's so tragic.
Memento
Reliability of memory, lies, self-deception... It's all happening around us including ourselves.
Collateral
What a disappointment towards the end. It's such a shame.
