10 Movies Where The Good Guy & Bad Guy BOTH Win
1. Behind The Mask: The Rise Of Leslie Vernon - Taylor - Gentry & Leslie Vernon
Fantastic horror mockumentary Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon revolves around a journalist, Taylor Gentry (Angela Goethals), and her film crew as they chronicle the exploits of Leslie Vernon (Nathan Baesel), an aspiring serial killer.
It's not exactly a surprise that Leslie's murderous exploits are eventually turned inward on the film crew themselves, leaving Taylor as the Final Girl who uses her wiles to defeat and apparently kill Leslie in the film's ending.
As for how this is in any way a win for Leslie? Well, he planned the whole thing out. Leslie always intended for Taylor to be the Final Girl and basically gave her all the tools to defeat him and ensure his passage into the annals of serial killer legend.
And beyond that, though Taylor crushes Leslie's head in an apple press and leaves his corpse to burn, a credits scene reveals that he inexplicably survived to fight another day. Because let's face it, no true slasher icon goes down for the count after a single movie, right?
