The ending to the 1998's The Truman Show has stood the test of time due to the fact that it is emotionally resonating. Dealing with the everyday life of its titular protagonist, The Truman Show finds him living in a gigantic set that is planted with actors and fake scenarios with Truman's very existence serving as the basis for a reality show. Tackling the obsession of people with reality television while also exploring larger notions of philosophy, the trio of director Peter Weir, writer Andrew Niccol, and leading man Jim Carrey stick the landing with an ending for the ages.
Bob Clark's 1974 horror film Black Christmas is one of the most influential slasher movies of all time, and it has an unforgettably chilling ending. In Black Christmas Billy is considered the villain as he picks off victims one by one, and after almost 50 years, his identity is still debated. The story takes place in a sorority house, where the residents are throwing a Christmas party before they depart. Little do they know, however, that a perverted killer has made his way into the house, and is preparing to pick them off one by one. The Billy Black Christmas character remains in the shadows for most of the movie, that is, until the chilling ending.
