10 Horror Movie Villain Twists We All Saw Coming
2. Last Night In Soho - Miss Collins, Aka Sandie
Last Night In Soho is a brilliant film from the mind of Edgar Wright and is already one of the less appreciated pieces in his filmography. It deserves a tonne of credit not only for being thrilling and creative but for throwing a bunch of shocking twists and surprises your way. The only issue is that this last one was pretty obvious from the beginning.
The movie follows a girl (Eloise) who moves to Soho and begins to have visions of a woman (Sandie) living in the 1960s. You watch as reality and her visions being to blur, but there's one big mystery, where is Sandie now? The film tries to make you believe she's dead, but there's one nagging suspicion that makes her fate way more apparent, in the form of Eloise's landlady.
This landlady has two rather questionable notes. The first is that you never learn her first name, and the second is that she's played by Diana Rigg. Really? Diana Rigg happens to be in the movie as a landlady with no relevance to the plot; who just so happens to be the exact right age for Sandie? Sure.
When the truth came out that Sandie was alive and kicking, it didn't surprise many eagle-eyed viewers.
