If it's crap ... We'll tell you

My two choices for the most unexpected film endings are similar in that they both "sneak up" on you and totally go against how you thought they were going to conclude. These two endings both seem to be building up to somewhat surprisingly optimistic conclusions but then turn it on its head. These movies are Taxi Driver and A Clockwork Orange.
So, what do you Spillios think is the most unexpected film ending(s)?

Also How To Train Your Dragon was a shock when Hiccup loses a leg after the Dragon fight, did not see that coming and it made the film even more awesome for me for going in that direction.

because apart from the ending, it's just your generic torture porn.

But two movies that really had me go "say what now??" are definately "Wild Things" (this movie has so many plottwists, its almost nauseating) and Moon. I loved the ending of Moon...
Oh, and the ending of the Mortal Kombat TV Show was great.... Bad guy kills all the good guys... Yeehaw!
