This movie could never be made in America


Since everyone dies at the end. It would be so unpopular that people would call it racist and boycott the movie just because it offends them. How on earth can every character die in a movie! Impossible! Not in america.

Aside from the millions of movies that have been made in America where the characters die in the end, America decided to prove you wrong even further by recently making a film about mountain climbing where the climbers die in the end, and it was very successful! http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2719848/
I imagine you're feeling rather dumb right now...

Not everyone. Beck Weathers remarkable survival fits right in with the idea of the American can-do spirit and pretty much what we expect from someone who is "100% Texan".

We don't mind if almost everyone dies as long as at least one person makes it out, preferably an American.

Fair enough. That movie was off the top of my head, so I'll put a bit more thought into this response. How about Apollo 18, The Ruins, Sunshine, The Perfect Storm, The Descent, The Mist... Okay that's all I got for now 😃
