20 Recent Movie Plot Twists NOBODY Saw Coming
1. It's All About Eye Fluid - The Home
The latest horror film from The Purge director James DeMonaco revolves around Max (Pete Davidson), a former foster child and graffiti artist who is arrested for vandalism and sentenced to community service at a retirement home.
Before long Max begins to notice some incredibly strange goings-on at the facility, and while we're very clearly being led to some sort of Get Out-esque scenario here, the particulars of it are much more surprising.
In the end it's revealed that both the staff and residents of the retirement home are part of a cult that worships the goddess Dea.
They kidnap young people and extract a liquid from behind their eye which they call "Dea's nectar," allowing them to extend their lives and remain youthful for longer.
Given that The Home is a relatively dull, forgettable horror flick up to this point, the utterly bonkers swing is most certainly welcome, especially as it leads to Max embarking on a blood-thirsty rampage against staff and residents alike.
It's sadly not quite enough to nudge the film into genuinely "good" territory, though.
