10 Horror Movies With Terrifying Surprises

1. T Is For Tentacles - ABCs Of Death 2

Urban Legends Final Cut
Magnet Releasing

Directed by the Soska Sisters, the T is for Torture Porn section of 2014's ABCs of Death 2 anthology sees modern genre fave Tristan Risk take centre-stage as a budding porn star.

When Risk's Yumi auditions for an X-rated movie, she has her buttons poked and prodded by some hideous director and production crew whose main questions revolve around her gag reflex, what she's willing to do with her body, and what she's prepared to do to land the part. Remaining largely silent while she's aggressively grilled and grabbed, Yumi happens to have quite the surprise waiting to reveal to these creeps.

As one of them questions whether Yumi has a penis under her dress, the demeanour of Risk's character changes, as she sinisterly proclaims "I love d**ks!" and showcases how she has tentacles hiding under her garment.

From here, those tentacles proceed to brutally attack, rape and ultimately murder this misogynistic film crew.

Of course, this is just one of a mammoth 26 shorts that make up ABCs of Death 2 - with, like its predecessor, all of this sequel's vignettes being constructed around a different letter of the alphabet.
