You forgot the original "Death Wish" (1974) with Charles Bronson. He was driven to his deadly rampage when a group of thugs invaded his apartment and killed his wife (played by Hope Lange). This movie was notable as one of the thugs was played by Jeff Goldblum in his first screen role and that the home invaders are never caught and punished for their crime which was unusual for movies back then.
I’m surprised the Lovely Bones (2009) didn’t make the list. The fact that half the movie involved the victim’s little sister figuring out what happened and the gross killer getting away to go on doing the same thing to other kids until his untimely demise years later in an accident was especially irritating.
i've got some more: -12 Angry Men : there is still a murderer free and without trace at the end of the movie. -Silence of the Lambs and Hannibal : Lecter escapes both times. -Parasites: after the birthday party , the father hides in the basement never to be seen again (he was not a villain, but he did kill someone)
The Talented Mr. Ripley. Granted, it's a series of books but if you take the movie as a standalone story, you have Tom Ripley literally sailing off into the sunset (and a comfortable life) after killing 3 people.
Crimes and Misdemeanors by Woody Allen! One of my favorite movies. Not only does the killer get away with it, they feel no guilt in the long run. Some neat playing around with the idea that there is no karma in life.
Probably my favourite Woody Allen movie ever, it makes some genuinely interesting points on morality and justice while also being absolutely hilarious (the scene where Allen's character shows his cut of the documentary to Alan Alda ranks among my top 10 funniest comedy moments of all time😂)
@@rzn2258 Allen has been acquitted twice, and that combined with the numerous inconsistencies and retractions in the Farrows' statements makes me suspect there is a lot more going on there than it would appear on the surface. The guy is undoubtedly pretty weird, but has never done anything demonstrably illegal. If he is indeed guilty of the horrific crimes he has been accused of then he deserves to be locked up and have the key thrown away, but "innocent until proven guilty" is still the foundation behind the Western criminal justice system, and rightly so
@@rzn2258 Maybe Woody Allen makes movies about criminals getting away with crime as a fictional stand in for himself getting away with his real life crimes.
The original Dutch film “Spoorloos,” aka “The Vanishing.” There was an Americanized remake that ruined the punch of the ending, with the killer getting killed himself, but in both versions, the audience and the protagonist both know who the killer is by the end, even being walked through how he did it.
In Edgar Allan Poe's short story, "A Cask of Amontillado", arrogant "Montressor" lures a friend, "Fortunato", deep into his catacombs on the promise of some fabulous wine. Once there, he WALLS IN his drunken victim, and we never even find out why he did it! The epilogue has Montressor telling the reader the story, and reveals that the body of his victim has remained undiscovered for 50 YEARS. When I read the short story, in my mind, I pictured Vincent Price as Montressor... and Basil Rathbone as Fortunato. (I was probably thinking of Price as "Prince Prospero", and Rathbone as "Carmichael", from the Roger Corman films.)
It's been a while since I read that story but it's it implied that he just actually hates his friend and is jealous and envious of him and that's why he did it?
Am I right in thinking Stanley Tucci's character in The Lovely Bones was never caught and the murder (& location of her body) remained a mystery? His comeuppance was an accident that occurred during another attempted abduction.
True, but it's also what makes the movie SO frustrating to me, as it's one of my favorite books ever. In the book, when Susie's in heaven, they play a game that's basically "make the perfect crime." She chooses an icicle as the weapon because the evidence melts. So at the end, the icicle on the building shakes, he gets stabbed by it and you're just like HELL YEAH, UNIVERSE. It's awesome, and the movie was such a disappointment.
I was actually kind of shocked by how honest "3 Billboards" ended up being. McDormand being something of a liberal crusader, the last thing I expected to see was the person her character was so sure attacked her daughter be absolved by evidence.
mystic river - the father killed his friend because he thought he killed his daughter but it was actual someone else who was caught but it never gets revealed if the father got caught for what he did despite his police friend probably knowing he did it.
That doesn't even make sense as an insult. Body Heat is one of the best neo noir films out there and anybody that loves movies of any age should appreciate it and Kathleen Turner's stunning, career making performance. @@undefined7141
Mr. Brooks is a classic and could've been on this list. But, Jack Nicholson's look in The Pledge looked like BTK lol. With that look he'd have been perfect for a BTK movie.
The thing with the Zodiac killer is the same with many serial killers (like Jack the Ripper) there can be a sudden stop & leave cops scrabbling round for an answer when the killer themself died from natural causes, got hit and killed by a drunk diver and so on. A totally "natural" or rather mundane incident can kill thm just as easily as it can kill someone else. so leaving the film of a serial killer who didnt get caught makes sense.
If you've ever seen the movie "Frequency" that's exactly what happens in the unaltered timeline with the serial killer the Nightingale. He dies in the hospital so there are no more killings.
Urban Legend (1998), in that horror movie, the main killer got away & was never caught. Also, the Joy Ride film(2001) shows the main killer named "Rusty Nail" was never caught or killed, and Rusty Nail also got away in the 2 direct to video sequels.
Well, she was willing to murder a child so, she drew no lines. I'd imagine though just from the clip, that he was a very recognizable horse and even if they'd sold him away, someone might have been able to connect him to the family.
theres a movie (i cant remember the name) where this girl went to meet an online friend and went missing, then her other friend went looking for her and suffered the same fate, the killer was also not found
i know coming with a list of just 10 is not an easy task, things maybe missed or over looked... but i think "All the little things" Denzel, Rabi, Jared should have made the list...
Arlington road. Tim Robbin’s character is an arsonist who moves next door to Jeff Bridges. Bridges suspects Robbins of being the killer, but dies in a fire that Robbins sets and is subsequently framed for all of the fires that Robbins commits
and by extension he MURDERED their WHAT? Say that sentence again, over and over again, slowly until you get it... its either a tragedy of two lives taken... or its a tragedy of one life taken and a meaningless blob whose 'life' is as casually take-able as picking ice cream.
Chinatown. Noah Cross gets away with killing his son-in-law (and god knows who else) in a final scene as chillingly nihilistic as anything Hollywood has ever produced.
#2 Random Asian movie you never heard of followed by #1 Scary Movie?? Hard to take this list seriously. Check out Arlington Road. First movie I thought of when I saw this video title.
Does she thought or is watertight also an expression that means approximately the same thing and that might....and hear me out here, might also be used by some people?

More realistic unfortunately. Especially in a city as big as New York

Mr. Brooks... One of my favorites with a great Kevin Costner!
YES!
For as much as I can't stand Dane Cook, "Mr. Brooks" is a very very good film. Cook actually did ok in it. But I still can't stand him.
Such a fun film. Didn't expect to enjoy it as much as we did.
The Phantom Killer from The Town That Dreaded Sundown (1976); nobody knows who he is, nobody knows his motivations and he escaped
The Talented Mr. Ripley
Arlington Road should have been on this list.
Arlington Road

-Silence of the Lambs and Hannibal : Lecter escapes both times.

Arlington Road! Are you kidding me!? Has to be on another list.

Lady Macbeth doesn't get talked about enough. It's how you do a relaxing thriller. There's no edge of seat, but damn if your jaw doesn't hit the floor
Arlington Road 😡😡

Is even more insane than any of those movies.

He’s literally in jail in Silence of the lambs…..
@@OberynTheRedViper Did you watch it??? He escapes at the end, lol. Doh
@@lfcbprobut he did get caught.

I think you left out "No Country for Old Men." Too hot?
“The little things” Denzel Washington, Rami Malek, and Jered Leto. Great actors, great movie.
Body Heat (1981), Kathleen Turner's character.
Ok boomer.
technically, they do get William Hurt thought. He might have been her patsy but he went along with the first murder.

The Doofy twist. Brilliant. And y'all are brilliant for putting the spoof on such a list.
Tim Robbins in Arlington Road
Helloooo? "No country for old men"? The obvious choice for the #1 spot isn't even on the list?
Mr. Brooks is a classic and could've been on this list. But, Jack Nicholson's look in The Pledge looked like BTK lol. With that look he'd have been perfect for a BTK movie.
More Jem please!
I love her smokey voice!
I forgot Duffy had a water gun the whole movie 🤣🤣🤣
Love your content guys 😊😊😊❤❤
Presumed Innocent I was first in the door opening day in Fresno CA

Or they get incarcerated for a completely non-related crime.
If you've ever seen the movie "Frequency" that's exactly what happens in the unaltered timeline with the serial killer the Nightingale. He dies in the hospital so there are no more killings.
Am I the only one that thought Jack Nicolson was the BTK killer????

Is 2 worth a watch
No Frailty or Behind The Mask? :O
The Pledge is hands down the best movie on this list. It f you have t seen it, get on it.
When he built the swingset in the front yard, I damn near walked out of the theater.
@@sheboyganshovel5920 out of curiosity, why was that? Was it because you saw how he was going to use the daughter or some other reason?
@@OberynTheRedViper Yep. Only reason he would've built the swing in the front yard.
Amazing video.
Why did Pugh’s character in Lady Macbeth have to shoot the horse? That wasn’t necessary!
Well, she was willing to murder a child so, she drew no lines. I'd imagine though just from the clip, that he was a very recognizable horse and even if they'd sold him away, someone might have been able to connect him to the family.
Fallen with Denzel Washington/ the collector /
Or “The Little Things” also with Denzel.
Fallen is so underrated and should’ve been on this list
Tell me Jack Nicholson doesn't look exactly like Dennis Rader, aka the BTK Killer in The Pledge. Uncanny.
Gene Hackman in no way out
Came to check if Zodiac was on the list and I was not dissapointed
Another good one .... Presumed Inonace with Harrison Ford.....good movie
I saw Memories of Murder in theaters while I was in Korea. Very memorable.
theres a movie (i cant remember the name) where this girl went to meet an online friend and went missing, then her other friend went looking for her and suffered the same fate, the killer was also not found
no.. wrong turn
no.. usual suspects
no. Freddy vs. Jason
no.. Mitch Conners (long story)sp
The Lovely Bones
#1 is a bold move, and totally worth it!
Weird but true fact, Wes Bentleys dad was a preacher at my church when I was young.
SE7EN (arguably)
Nah. He's still caught for handing himself in
The Dorm that dripped blood
Zodiac killer now has some very likely matches/suspects that we re unable to properly verify (with DNA?) as they are no longer alive.
Everyone knows it's Ted Cruz anyway.
valentine (2001)
The original Town That Dreaded Sundown. Old, but terrifying.
One of my favorites, Nature of the Beast could be on this list.
PHONE BOOTH. GREAT MOVIE...SURPRISED THAT COLIN FARREL NEVER BETTER👍👍👍👍👍👍
JFK??
i know coming with a list of just 10 is not an easy task, things maybe missed or over looked... but i think "All the little things" Denzel, Rabi, Jared should have made the list...
I thought we solved this.. Ted Cruze is the zodiac killer!
Bob Murray
Not quite a *killer* that didn't get caught, but Irreversible's antagonist Le Tenia...
Though it hasn't been released yet, it would seem the real "killer" in "Rust" has gotten away with it.
Skeleton key is a movie where the killers arent caught in a more messed up way.
Arlington road. Tim Robbin’s character is an arsonist who moves next door to Jeff Bridges. Bridges suspects Robbins of being the killer, but dies in a fire that Robbins sets and is subsequently framed for all of the fires that Robbins commits
I really like the ending to joy ride
The fact that you omitted THE USUAL SUSPECTS (Keyser Söze) from this list is almost criminal!!
Well the killer died. It’s what he wanted, but he did die by one of the victims.
The fact that you don't understand that this is the second list, and The Usual Suspects was on the FIRST list, is what's actually criminal.
@@captainspaulding5963 Where does it say this is the second list?
Hello Jem.....
The killer...
What about 2001 british thriller THE HOLE, starring Thora Birch, Keira Knightley and Desmond Harrington ?!
Shout out to Thora Birch.
Memories of murder was a great movie
Joy Ride is a great one
Identity is another
Another Video another happy face
and by extension he MURDERED their WHAT? Say that sentence again, over and over again, slowly until you get it... its either a tragedy of two lives taken... or its a tragedy of one life taken and a meaningless blob whose 'life' is as casually take-able as picking ice cream.
Chinatown. Noah Cross gets away with killing his son-in-law (and god knows who else) in a final scene as chillingly nihilistic as anything Hollywood has ever produced.
What about Vice?
Aaa not the horsey 🐴
Jack Nicholson would play a good green river killer, Gary Ridgway
Or the BTK killer Dennis Rader. He look uncannily like him in Pledge.
Shawshank redemption , the real killer gets away with it
Jesus christ how many ads do you need
#2 Random Asian movie you never heard of followed by #1 Scary Movie?? Hard to take this list seriously. Check out Arlington Road. First movie I thought of when I saw this video title.
didn't the zodiac killer get caught last year, and his name was Jeff or smth like that???
Fallen with Denzel Washington. The killer gets away
What about Rampage 1 and 2 the trilogy is awesome
Watertight? You mean airtight?
Does she thought or is watertight also an expression that means approximately the same thing and that might....and hear me out here, might also be used by some people?
Silence of the Lambs, Hannibal, Hannibal Rising.
The original "The Vanishing" it was a messed up movie. Very messed up.
That whole "twice her age" bit is misandrist.
Where the crawdads sing.
No Country For Old Men?
The guy from iknow what you did last summer even at the end of the 2nd one they implied he was still alive
That was a dream, just like the shower scene in the first one. The fisherman is dead.
Don't forget that masked rapist in Ms. 45
this is wrong zodiac has been identified now
Three Billboards was one of the worst movies I’ve ever seen
More loathsome than Woody Allen himself?
LMFAO SCARY MOVIE #1
Stoker.
Killer never gets caught in the Final Destination movies. The movie Fallen with Denzel Washington and John Goodman.
