10 More Disturbing Movie Reveals You Only Notice Rewatching

It's pretty much impossible to catch absolutely every fascinating detail on offer during the first watch of any great movie.

With audiences trying to keep track of the twisting and turning narrative, being caught off-guard by unexpectedly moving moments, and just generally getting caught up in the overall big-screen experience, some of the more subtle and easily overlooked pieces of wonderful on-screen information typically tend to slip through the cracks.

The second you go back and discover the following collection of initially missed revelations and visuals, though, it's safe to say that second ride will become that little bit more... disturbing.

Either due to the clever way they were positioned in a scene, the fact viewers weren't quite aware what was on the horizon, or fans just not really looking out for them during the moment in question, all of these creepy reveals managed to stay very much hidden when enjoying a first watch of the films they belong to.

From bits of paper ominously foreshadowing the fate of a trusted pal, to a blink-and-you'll-miss-it visual revealing the truth about certain characters - and with a quick nod to the brilliant folks over at r/MovieDetails who helped fish out many of these distressing moments - here are a few more of those unsettling reveals you definitely didn't spot on a first viewing.

Many a spoiler incoming, of course!

Depicting the tale of a Deputy U.S. Marshall seemingly throwing himself into the middle of a very real missing person investigation on an island containing an institution for the criminally insane, Martin Scorsese's Shutter Island is one of those movies that simply needs to be revisited after your first experience.

Once you learn of the jaw-dropping twist - that Leonardo DiCaprio's Teddy Daniels is actually a patient on the titular island and the Andrew Laeddis who killed his wife after she murdered their children - just about every single frame of this film becomes infinitely more compelling.

And one of the biggest giveaways that Daniels/Laeddis was really just being allowed to explore this pretend investigation as a way of potentially reminding himself who he really was could be seen during the moments the character shared the screen with matches.

You see, in the first half of the movie, the Deputy Marshall is never shown using a match to light his own cigarettes, with his parter Chuck Aule/Dr. Sheehan instead lighting them for him. 

Along with the doc likely feeling it was wise to keep a box of matches away from his patient, this could also point to Daniels connecting fire with the death of his wife - Laeddis had apparently killed her in a fire he'd created.

But watch closely as the film wanders past the halfway point and it seems that when Laeddis' treatment starts to kick in, he begins to set off his own matches, subtly revealing that he wasn't Daniels at all and his true self wasn't quite as affected by the flames.
