Predicting The Endings To The Fall's Biggest Movies
10. A Sequel-Baiting Final Jump Scare - Flatliners
The Ending: After it seems that Ellen Page's protagonist Courtney Holmes has made peace with her supernatural demons, the film ends with one final jump scare, making it clear that she's still being hounded by death-induced hallucinations.
The original Flatliners actually ended pretty conclusively with no stinger tease for a sequel, but movies being what they are these days, it seems likely that Sony is hoping to spin this soft reboot into a new franchise of films.
It's a classic horror staple these days to end a movie with a final jump that sets up a potential next movie, and it's hard to imagine something this trashy-looking being restrained enough not to do that.
