Films With Miserable Endings

Somewhere In The Ether…

I love a happy ending but apparently not all filmmakers share my attitude.

By way of demonstrating this, over the years, there have been some really bloody miserable ones!

Think Jon Voight’s fate in, The Champ for instance; That felt really shitty didn’t it?

Good folks, please list me what you believe to be the most unhappy film endings ever

"Karate Kid"

It's a great film. A story of a hopeful, young karate enthusiast whose dreams and moxie take him all the way to the All Valley Karate Championship. Of course sadly he loses in the final round to that nerd kid. But he learns an important lesson about gracefully accepting defeat

Somewhere In The Ether…

Has anyone here watched an old Italian Western called, The Great Silence?

Here’s a spoiler:

The late Klaus Kinski plays the particularly nasty main villain who takes a group of towns folk captive in the finale.

He challenges the mute main hero to a shootout or else he’ll kill all the captives.

Hero turns up….Klaus and his assembled miscreants shoot him dead in the street(!)

But wait! - The hero’s now distraught lover runs out and picks up his gun to avenge him.

They promptly shoot her dead to(!!)

Finally, on his orders, they shoot ALL the hostages(!!!) before Klaus is shown smirking evilly and the end credits roll.

Jesus!

"Requiem for a Dream. Absolutely no one has a happy ending in it."

Most films by Aronofsky. I think in Pi he ends up power drilling into his own skull and then in Black Swan , she goes right off the rails.

The Mist always stands out. I remember how sick I felt the first time I watched it. The Green Mile is pretty fucking sad. Boy In The Striped Pyjamas. A recent one I watched that made me sob at the end was All Quiet on the Western Front.

Sorry @Quacksplat, that's twice today I've replied on a thread without looking up to see someone got there first, but Boys Don't Cry. Oh man. I'm upset just thinking about it.

And I agree Johnny was misunderstood. He didn't want to sweep the leg...

For some pooch centred miserable endings, both Turner and Hooch and Marley and Me end very sadly for the poochie stars.

My sisters keeper, even with them switching and changing the ending compared to the book, which was equally heartbreaking.

Jesus - it's heavy-going just to get through the trailer without opening your wrists with that one!

The beginning, the middle, the end of every Ingmar Bergman film. No one smiles in any of his films!

Remember Me starring Robert Pattinson; Not a particularly great film in my opinion but the ending does pack a ‘Nooo! Holy shit!’ punch….

The ending to JKF wasn't exactly happy.

Nearer than you think

I quite like miserable films; there's a sense of escapism in observing others' misery.

The two films that caught me completely by surprise were Hatchi and A Monster Calls.

Uncontrolled blubbing.

Don't look up.

Even worse is that it's an analogy for the way we are heading. Bleak!

Casablanca, maybe a miserable ending but in my opinion a perfect one.

I thought that was a glorious ending. The police officer wasn't a nice person and, while he didn't exactly deserve his fate, I had no sympathy for him at all. The islanders were the heroes of the film, and they all had a great time of things.

The Mist. I hated the ending of the remake.

There were so many other options for the ending and they went with something that produced the most horrible emotional reaction in me.

I dunno what to tell you mate. I balance it out.

Too many non-happy endings and I will be in the secure psych ward.

So I will watch something dark and then I'll watch something light-hearted with a happy ending/comedy.

If I'm in a really dark place, I'll watch one of the animated kid movies and that always makes me feel better.

the last thing I watched was Vikings ( brutal violence) and Sahmaran ( about love but dark and scary)

Somethings are just about life and moving on from unpleasant things. like Sex Education...it's a comedy but it's got some fairly dark and distressing things running though it.
