Us by Jordan Peele. It’s a great movie, but that ending scene is terrible. They don’t need to insist so much to make sure that the dumb viewer gets it… It’s heavily hinted during the last few scenes, and letting the viewer wondering alongside the terrified son who his mother really his, and who we’d like her to be, would be so much more impactfull.
Also Rec by Jaume Balaguerò and Paco Plaza for similar reasons. The movie spends it’s entirerity building this unseen menace, and establishing a terrifying ambiance, and then for some reasons right at the end, just before they let us alone with our thoughts after the movie, decides they should undo it all and give us the “oh actually it’s just this guy who summoned this demon” ending.
If I had a vehicule so fast it could literally kill me, I would never drive it around other people knowing my life was potentially in the hands of some inexperienced driver who has not the slightest concern or knowledge regarding traffic laws.
I could find plenty other analogies, but you get the point… So many mundane everyday activities are life threatening in a way, you can’t blame people for living…
Asking the waiter for problematic ingredients and insisting on how severe your allergy is more than enough caution taken. The fault is entirely on the restaurant. If a blind person was run over after a nearby pedestrian ensured them that it was safe to cross the street, would you blame the blind person for leaving their house alone?
