The Girl Next Door... the one based on the book of the same name...
Usually I dig when the bad guy wins in a film but this case is different.. far different. Disturbing flick.

What if you consider Cloverfield to be the good guy? Rocky and Rocky Balboa came to my mind They were both moral victories. I know people like to make fun of that, but it really is true that despite technically losing the matches he ends up a better human being for doing what he did. |

Ghostwatch.
Phase IV.
I wouldn't exactly call "Verbal" Kint a good guy, so The Usual Suspects.
Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. Well, the bad guys 'lost', but the good guys didn't really win anything.

(I'm screwed up because I viewed Tony Montana as a good guy after he turned on Sosa)

The Lawnmower Man
Remember, he said that every phone on Earth ringing at once meant that he had taken over. You think he dies, but the last thing you see (or hear) is all the phones ringing.

Se7en and Empire Strikes Back would be my favorites. "What's in the box? What's in the BOOOOOOOOOOOOX!!!" Good movie, but Pitt's acting when he says that is just over-the-top hilarious. I mean, I felt bad because the bad guy chopped off his wife's head and all, but when he started saying that I started laughing because he sounded funny. |

Dawn of the Dead (2004)
I assume the survivors die once they reach the island and discover it full of zombies.
The camera gets knocked over and all I heard was noise.

You could say X-Men 3. The X-Men prevail in the end, but they lose their leader, Cyclops and Jean Grey. Pretty raw deal there.

I disagree. Iceberg totally owned Dicaprio, which is always a win in my book. |

I'd say The Departed aswell. I mean it was shocking but left you feeling really pissed off that the character you cared about all through out the film gets wasted in one shot.  |

I mean, I felt bad because the bad guy chopped off his wife's head and all, but when he started saying that I started laughing because he sounded funny. Yeah, I was watching that movie and laughed when that scene went down, just like you did. I hate to spoil this movie for you, but it's out on DVD so I think those that want to see it already have. There's a Jason Statham movie called Chaos where the bad guy wins in the end. But it's not a movie I can recommend. And didn't Freddy Krueger win at the end of the first two Nightmare on Elm Street movies as well? And I have to admit, about 20 minutes into Jeepers Creepers, I started rooting for the creature. I'm glad he won. |

The "I slept too long" alternate ending to Army of Darkness, which I really don't like when compared to the other ending.

Probably my very first movie-related "WTF?!" was the ending to "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow". EVERY Disney movie i'd seen up to that one had the good guy winning, and it was like seeing Hogan turn heel when Ichabod got off'd at the end and the bad guy (whos name escapes me) gets the girl.
