Line 61:
** Co-writer/actor [[Guinevere Turner]] [[Word of God|said]] that the interpretation she and Mary Harron had in mind when writing the film was that all of the murders do take place in some capacity though [[Unreliable Narrator|never with the details exactly the same as Bateman relates]]. If what another troper wrote elsewhere on the site is true, Bret Ellis said that the murders in the book are all real, that being part of the satire: the people in the 80's are so jaded that they can't tell when [[Devil in Plain Sight|all this shit is going on right in front of them]].
* The psychological thriller ''[[The Hole]]''.
* ''[[The Sixth Sense]]'' is a more conventional [[Twist Ending]] until you think about the [[Fridge Logic|implications]] on the on-screen relationship between Malcolm Crowe and his wife. {{spoiler|What we (and Malcolm) thought was the portrait of a falling marriage between a workaholic and his spiteful partner turns out to be the sorrow of a widow and the tragedy of a man
* ''[[Total Recall]]'' spends a lot of time questioning which parts of the plot and the hero's background are real, fake memories, or hallucinations. The film ends with a very strong suggestion that most of the plot was not real, though the truth is left ambiguous.
* ''[[Inception]]'' is one of these, as the ending can be taken to mean the previous 5 minutes, or most or even all of the film may have been a dream.
