Ethan Coen's new neo-noir Honey Don't sees private detective Honey O'Donahue (Margaret Qualley) investigating the deaths of several women connected to a church operated by the lecherous Reverend Drew Devlin (Chris Evans).

But as vile as Devlin is, he actually isn't the film's killer - at the very end of the story, we learn that the person responsible is MG Falcone (Aubrey Plaza), who in addition to being a cop is also Honey's lover.

As it turns out, MG was a victim of abuse at the hands of her father and ultimately killed him, her trauma seemingly driving her insane enough that she decided to murder women who took comfort in the church for their perceived "weakness."

This revelation leads an incensed MG to try and kill Honey also, who is in turn forced to kill her.

Whether this left-field twist worked for you or not - as, like the movie as a whole, it's certainly been divisive - few could've seen it coming.
