Those films where you're certain you have the ending all sorted out but then WHAM! You wind up shocked by the ending...
For instance, the guy you know is the killer who turns out to be totally innocent
Any genre will do and if this thread takes off ***HERE THERE BE SPOILERS***

The ending of Sleepaway Camp (83) caught me completely off guard...you know what I mean if you're a horror fan!

The ending of Sleepaway Camp is great. Definitely one of my favourite twist endings.
Other great twist endings:

Psycho
Orphan
The Sixth Sense
Planet of the Apes

There are probably others that I'm forgetting, but those are some of the best that come to mind.

My parents saw Planet of the Apes on a date and said the entire audience gasped lol!
