10 Movies Where The Killer Never Gets Caught

Because not every movie on this list needs to be a totally serious thriller - and The Usual Suspects has been talked to death, basically - here's a rare case of a spoof that offers its own genuinely brilliant killer getaway.

The original Scary Movie, for all of its silliness, concludes with a genuinely brilliant and hilariously unexpected, Usual Suspects-parodying twist, where the Ghostface-esque killer is revealed to be none other than Buffy's (Shannon Elizabeth) intellectually disabled brother Doofy (Dave Sheridan).

Moreover, in a plot point that admittedly falls apart under much scrutiny - it is a spoof, after all - Doofy has apparently been faking his disability and unkempt appearance the entire time, revealing himself to be a suave, handsome man who is romantically involved with reporter Gail Hailstorm (Cheri Oteri).

Even though Cindy (Anna Faris) figures out that Doofy is the killer in the movie's final moments, as with The Usual Suspects he drives off into the night moments before she heads outside to search for him.

And given that the Scary Movie franchise has never returned to the Doofy character, there's no reason not to believe that he got away totally scot-free.
