10 Horror Movies That Only Make Sense At The End
10. Don't Look Now
Nicolas Roeg's masterful Don't Look Now follows a grieving couple, John (Donald Sutherland) and Laura (Julie Christie), in the wake of their young daughter's accidental drowning death.
While in Venice for work, John begins to catch sightings of a small figure in a red coat resembling his daughter when she died, and things only get stranger from there.
John is warned that his life is in danger, is nearly killed in a scaffolding accident, and then witnesses a vision of Laura on a funeral cortege in Venice, despite her having flown home to England by this point.
At film's end, John glimpses the red coat-wearing figure once again and gives chase, but when he catches up to his "daughter," the horrific truth is revealed.
The figure is actually a female dwarf serial killer who has been terrorising the area, and who promptly kills John with a meat cleaver.
Only then do both a dying John and the audience realise that the increasingly strange and confusing sights encountered throughout the film were actually premonitions of John's own future demise. Mind. Blown.
