10 MORE Horror Movie Moments Everyone Was Waiting For (That Never Happened)
6. Nick And Gina Are Exposed As The Killers - A Perfect Getaway
In David Twohy's twisted thriller, Cliff and Cydney (Steve Zahn and Milla Jovovich) are honeymooning in Hawaii, where they befriend another couple, Nick and Gina (Timothy Olyphant and Kiele Sanchez).
Though Nick and Gina appear friendly, Cliff and Cydney became noticeably wary when they hear of a double homicide in the area that was committed by a deranged man and woman. Though another couple are arrested for the murders shortly after, all signs are pointing to it being a red herring.
Although this turns out to be true, it's not the red herring anyone was expecting, since our supposed heroes are revealed to be the killers shortly after. Through a series of flashbacks, we learn the murdered couple were the real Cliff and Cydney. After Zahn's character had them slaughtered, he and his partner assumed their identities to cover their tracks.
This jaw-dropping revelation is extra shocking since The Perfect Getaway is set up in a way so it appears as if there would be no twist. For this reason, most first-time viewers never considered anyone but Nick and Gina could be the villains.
