What Are The Best Horror Movie Endings Of All Time?

By William Teach October 17, 2026 – 4:42 pm

Entertainment Weekly has the list: do you agree?

The 20 best horror movie endings of all time

“Careful,” Randy warns Sidney near the end of Scream (1996). “This is the moment when the supposedly dead killer comes back to life for one last scare.”

He’s right, of course: Billy Loomis does briefly stir again before Sid puts him down for good. And that’s no surprise. Randy’s meta-commentary throughout Scream is based on years of pop-culture consumption — anyone who has watched enough horror can tell you that these movies love to give the audience a final jolt before the credits roll.

But however popular the “one last scare” ending is, that’s not the only way to wrap up a horror film. Revisiting the most memorable conclusions from a bevy of genre offerings reveals a wide variety of endnotes, from the spooky to the somber to the sublime. There are jump scares, yes, but there are also endings that inspire more lingering dread. Some even find a surprising poignance amid the body count. You may find yourself shocked, moved, or simply delighted — in rare cases, all of the above.

If you want to see why you’ll have to flip to the article, so, here’s the list

  1. The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (1920)
  2. The Wolf Man (1941)
  3. Rosemary’s Baby (1968)
  4. Don’t Look Now (1973) (I have not seen this one)
  5. The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974)
  6. Carrie (1976)
  7. Friday the 13th (1980) (I went to school there, been to all the shooting locations)
  8. The Beyond (1981) (I don’t think I finished this one)
  9. The Fly (1986)
  10. The Vanishing (1988)
  11. The Blair Witch Project (1999)
  12. Saw (2004)
  13. The Devil’s Rejects (2005) (Never finished it, didn’t like it)
  14. The Mist (2007) (It was a good horror ending, but, I think it would have been better to go with the book ending)
  15. REC (2007) (I don’t think it was that scary, just more jump scare style, didn’t stick with me)
  16. Occult (2009) (Never heard of it)
  17. The Invitation (2015) (gave up, thought it was boring)
  18. Saint Maud (2019) (nope, premise looked dull)
  19. Midsommar (2019) (who are the people that say this is horror? A few bad scenes, but, really, I’d call it drama, ending was a little disturbing)
  20. Speak No Evil (2022) (Never saw it)

The ones I’ve seen, excepting Midsommer, do have great horror endings, but, they are missing one of the best

Not the best version, and reversed, but, seriously, Christine was dragged to hell. Great acting by Justin Long, who was looking into a camera and having to picture what was going on.

Also, the ending to the original Nosferatu is great, but, not necessarily scary. Hell House LLC is fantastic, as is the 3rd Hell House.

Is There More Coming On Ilhan Omar?

By William Teach October 17, 2026 – 10:30 am

I thought the search of her home was about financial issues, for which I was wrong. But, could they be coming up?

Ilhan Omar raid sparks ominous prediction from watchdog: ‘They probably got the goods’

The federal raid on Rep. Ilhan Omar’s Washington, D.C., home prompted warnings Wednesday from a conservative watchdog leader that more revelations could be coming, as the Minnesota Democrat faces separate investigations involving her immigration records and financial disclosures.

Oversight Project President Mike Howell, whose group pushed to strip a $1.031 million earmark backed by Omar, says the Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) search raises broader questions about congressional accountability and what investigators may uncover next.

His warning comes as U.S. Attorney Jeanine F. Pirro confirmed on “America Reports” that her office is investigating the Minnesota Democrat’s financial disclosures, while separate reporting revealed that federal investigators had subpoenaed Omar’s relatives as part of an immigration-related probe.

“I think there’s other shoes that are going to drop here,” Howell told Fox News Digital.

“That’s why I think the Democrats really just couldn’t resist the temptation to jump out of this before they saw any evidence and just circle the wagons [around Omar],” he said.

While certainly the Credentialed Media has shown some support, mostly from a TDS point of view, yes, there is not a lot of rallying around Omar at this point. Like a lot of her Squad member Comrades there is not a lot of support for her

(Truthout) Days after the Trump administration’s unprecedented raid of Rep. Ilhan Omar’s (D-Minnesota) house just weeks before the midterm elections, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-New York) has not once publicly defended the progressive Democrat against the naked political prosecution.

You do not see much on social media from Democrats defending her. Let’s also not forget that this investigation started in 2024 under the Biden administration.

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-New York) and other House Democratic leaders issued a short statement following the raid that called it “deeply disturbing” and said that it “raises serious questions” about the Trump administration’s “weaponization of the federal government.”

The statements are more about TDS than about protecting Omar. Perhaps Democrats are concerned that if her shady dealings with fraudsters in Minnesota will lead to their own involvement with fraud being uncovered? Back to first article

Howell’s warning extends beyond Omar to what he describes as a broader failure of accountability in Washington, where lawmakers can champion taxpayer-funded projects that later face questions about their legitimacy.

We all know that it is a big scam. Congress allocates funds to federal agencies mostly run by Democrat voters who then give a ton of money to NGOs and such who are friendly to Democrats because the agencies can’t do the job. Those recipients also can’t do it, so, they take their cut and spread it out to other who also can’t do the job and spread it out to other Dem friendly entities, and, eventually, the job may get done.

And then money makes it back to the campaign coffers of Democrat politicians. And, sometimes, the money makes it out there and rather than spreading it around they just fraud the hell out of it, keeping most without actually doing the job, as we saw in Minnesota like with the “Learing Centers.” And some politicians need to go to jail for being involved in this, wasting taxpayer money, to calm it down, because it has all become normalized at this point.

As part of his broader “institutional rot” argument, Howell argued that Omar’s earmark controversy is not unique, criticizing what he sees as lawmakers placing loyalties outside the United States ahead of their constitutional responsibilities.

“This isn’t normal. And it only seems normal because it’s been happening so much. And I think it’s about time we take the oath to the Constitution that members swear seriously,” he said.

Exactly.

Warmists Wonder Why So Few Vote Like They Care About The Climate Crisis (scam) Or Something

By William Teach October 17, 2026 – 7:15 am

Oh, this should be good

If So Many Americans Care About Climate, Why Don’t They Vote Like It?

11.2 million.

That’s the number of American citizens who rank climate change as their top issue but didn’t vote in the 2024 election, according to research by the Environmental Voter Project. For context, Donald Trump won the presidency in 2024 by less than 2.3 million votes.

Weird that it doesn’t really ever show up in polls when put up with real issues, eh?

For a little over a decade, EVP has been working to get these climate-first Americans to the polls. Over the years, through canvassing, phonebanking, and postcard writing, they’ve helped turn 2.2 million climate-first nonvoters into voters who consistently show up at the polls every election, for candidates at every level of government.

“We work in [21] states because we feel that there are important gains that the climate movement can make, not just at the federal level, but the state and local level there,” Nathaniel Stinnett, the founder and executive director of EVP told CCNow in an interview.

This year, EVP is getting help from Patagonia. In September, the outdoor apparel company launched The 11.2 Million Vote Project offering a $100 credit to 112,000 people who signed up three of their friends to encourage them to vote. The coupons were snapped up in just four days. (The tool is still live for folks who want to nudge their friends.)

Isn’t it illegal to do this? That could be interesting as a legal case, but, if cultists have to be paid to get friends to vote is it really that good?

So why don’t these people who care so much about climate change vote with that issue in mind? It turns out, many people still falsely think that the top two most effective actions they can take to combat climate change are to recycle and change their consumer habits, according to recent EVP polling. “For 30 years, the fossil fuel industry has been teaching us to ignore the coal-fired power plant back there and instead just obsess over the plastic water bottles in our hands,” says Stinnett. “So, of course the public feels this way.”

Oh, that’s good, really top notch, guys, fail to take responsibility for your own actions. Not that we haven’t seen this same Talking Point before, ad nauseum.

“Everybody is failing climate concerned Americans in not helping them realize that this is a systemic political problem that requires systemic political solutions,” says Stinnett. “It’s not just about buying the right clothes and eating like climate-friendly donuts, or whatever. It’s about taking political action.”

It’s about getting Government to force Everyone Else to do things Warmists won’t do voluntarily. Really, as always, Doing Something about ‘climate change’ is popular in theory, but, when real world issues intrude it’s way down at the bottom in practice.

ICE Raids In California Meant To Discourage Voting By Immigrants

By William Teach October 17, 2026 – 7:00 am

Um, they aren’t allowed to vote, legal or illegal. Is The LA Times telling us, via the illegal alien supporting groups, that they would be voting?

Surge in ICE raids is aimed at discouraging voter turnout, immigration advocates say

Amid reports of a surge in federal immigration raids, Los Angeles leaders and immigration advocates said Friday that the efforts appear aimed at discouraging turnout in the midterm elections, and urged voters not to be intimidated.

“The timing of these actions, just weeks before the midterm elections, is no accident,” said Jeannette Zanipatin, policy director of the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights of Los Angeles. “These tactics seek to silence immigrant communities, suppress civic participation and divide our neighborhoods.”

CHIRLA’s executive director, Angelica Salas, blamed the Republican Trump administration for seeking to discourage voting and said her organizations and others will send legal observers to the polls across the state as part of the Can’t Stop California campaign.

“As threats of intimidation from the Trump administration continue just 18 days before the election date, do not let anyone convince you that your voice does not matter,” Salas said at a news conference in downtown Los Angeles. “We’re protecting our people. We’re also protecting our people’s ability to participate in the elections. California organizes itself. That is why we are a progressive, pro-immigrant state.”

Your voice doesn’t matter. You are barred from voting. Are they saying the quiet part out loud, that aliens vote in elections?

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security oversees Immigration and Customs Enforcement. In a statement, DHS spokesperson Chandler Rebel said that people “who are here legally and are not breaking other laws have nothing to fear.”

“Our message to aliens who vote in American elections is clear: we will find you, arrest you, and you will face the consequences — including criminal charges and deportation,” Rebel added.

Exactly. But, let’s be honest: if ICE was trying to discourage aliens, legal and illegal, from showing up at the poll they wouldn’t do it in California, where them not voting makes zero difference. They would be in places like North Carolina, hanging in Raleigh, Charlotte, Asheville, and more. Virginia. Maine. Any place where they polls are close.

The reported increased immigration raids now come at a time when the federal government has targeted the state’s election process. On Thursday, the Justice Department sued California over claims of voter fraud, and accused the state of counting ballots from “likely noncitizens.”

Um, the article pretty much is saying that aliens are voting.

Netanyahu Tells Obama To Pound Sand On Stolen Land

By William Teach October 16, 2026 – 6:42 pm

Will Obama be giving back the land for his house and “Presidential Center” in Chicago to the Council of the Three Fires? Or his home on Martha’s Vineyard back to the Wampanoag? It’s stolen land, right? Oh, wait, that doesn’t apply to Democrats? They can yammer, but, never do?

‘This is our homeland’: Netanyahu responds to Obama accusations that Israel stole Palestinian land

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu responded on Friday to comments made by former US president Barack Obama, in which he accused Israel of taking “land off people” and being “excessive,” referring to Israel’s treatment of the Palestinian people throughout the country’s history.

Obama made the comments during a visit to Belfast, Northern Ireland, on Tuesday.

“The Jewish people are not foreign occupiers in the land of our forefathers,” Netanyahu said in a video posted to X/Twitter. “Our history is not a colonial enterprise. Our land is not stolen land. This is our homeland.”

Netanyahu called Obama’s Belfast comments a “regrettable statement,” emphasizing the connection between the Jewish people and the Land of Israel, noting its biblical name, “Judea.”

It’s wild how Democrats find it in themselves to align with murderous Islamists

Regarding the path to a peace agreement, Netanyahu said that the obstacle to peace is not Israel, but rather the enemies in the region shared by Israel and the United States.

Specifically, Netanyahu noted the enemies’ “refusal to recognize the Jewish people’s right to a state of our own, in any boundary.”

He cited chants of “Death to Israel” and “Death to America,” which are common in states like Iran, a shared enemy of the US and Israel.

Well, Democrats and other leftists around the world take the side of Iran, Hamas, Hezbollah, etc, against Israel, Jews, and the USA>

Can US Ban People Who Cooked For Terrorists? Supreme Court To Take Case Up

By William Teach October 16, 2026 – 10:30 am

This is a very weird case

Can cooking for terrorists bar asylum? Supreme Court takes up unusual case with broader immigration stakes

A Nigerian man forced to cook thousands of meals for the Unknown Gunmen, a militant group linked to political violence in Nigeria, is at the center of a Supreme Court showdown that could determine how broadly immigration authorities can apply a terrorism-related bar to asylum and how far the Trump administration can go in deporting immigrants accused of supporting terrorism.

The Supreme Court agreed Tuesday to hear the Trump administration’s challenge to a ruling that overturned Nigerian citizen Izuchukwu Ozurumba’s deportation order, setting up a legal battle over whether ordinary services provided to terrorist organizations, including cooking meals, can disqualify immigrants from receiving asylum even when those services are not directly connected to terrorist attacks.

Ozurumba was deported to Nigeria in April 2025 while his appeal was pending.

At the center of the case is a provision of the Immigration and Nationality Act that bars certain immigrants who provide “material support” to terrorist organizations from receiving asylum. The law lists examples of prohibited assistance, including transportation, communications, housing, money, weapons and training, but it does not explicitly define what constitutes material support.

“The biggest takeaway is that this is a case about who gets to draw the line on a law that affects national security,” Bryce Poole, a senior legal fellow with Advancing American Freedom, told Fox News Digital. “Congress wrote a broad rule, and the court interpreted it narrowly.”

He worked with the terrorists and claims it was involuntary. Still doesn’t mean the US has to give him asylum. Do we need to give every 3rd worlder who refuses to assimilate a life in the US, plus money, housing, healthcare, clothes, etc, for their story of woe? We have enough of them. He came here illegally in 2023, a judge quickly determined he did not qualify for asylum, and then, somehow, he was able to afford all these lawyers to help him stay in the US. He supposedly was not paid for months while cooking for the terrorists, then escaped, then was able to afford to go from Nigeria to Venezuela then trek to the US. That is not cheap.

How many times do we find that people let in on asylum end up being something else?

(American Thinker) Then it gets worse: Her dad didn’t qualify for refugee status, meaning, he didn’t qualify for U.S. citizenship. He apparently lied on his application forms about not being a part of the persecuting class of Somalia which created its civil war, and got into the country as a helpless refugee. Turns out he was suspected of being a warlord and henchman in the homicidal regime of Mohammed Siad Barre, whose thugs massacred 200,000 people and got Somalia into a full blown civil war.

That dad is Nur Omar Mohamed, the father of Ilhan Omar, who never should have been given refugee status then citizenship. And, since Ilhan was probably 18 at that time, she should not have gotten “derivative citizenship”, meaning she’s not a citizen and should not be a member of Congress. You should read that whole article.

17 Climate Cult Groups Sue Montana, Wanting Commission To Consider ‘Climate Change’ On Everything

By William Teach October 16, 2026 – 7:15 am

The climalawfare continues, because the cult cannot convince other people to follow and allow their cult stuff in government

17 groups sue Montana Public Service Commission to require considering climate change

A coalition of 17 groups that want the Montana Public Service Commission to consider the effects of climate change in its decisions is taking its case to court.

Earthjustice and Western Environmental Law Center filed a complaint Thursday against the Public Service Commission.

It asks the Missoula County District Court to find the PSC has a constitutional obligation to account for climate risks in its decisions.

“Climate change poses an urgent threat to Montana and its people,” the complaint said.

It said the Public Service Commission can allow utilities to keep investing in fossil fuels or encourage them to pursue “cleaner and ultimately less costly alternatives.”

But it said the PSC has “refused to recognize and regularly disregards” the costs of climate, such as smoke that hurts asthmatic children, floods that destroy homes, and anglers who can’t fish.

Y’all are just batguano insane, and, also, won’t give up your own use of fossil fuels and make your lives carbon neutral. I wonder how many of these people do not even live in Montana, or recently moved there from their hellhole Democrat states and bring the same stupidity they escaped from?

Democrats Have A Radical Plan To Change The Government For Good

By William Teach October 16, 2026 – 7:00 am

This comes from fevered mind of far left Zack Beauchamp at far left Vox

The radical Democratic plan to change the government for good

Donald Trump started his second term in office with a plan: Project 2025.

The document — a detailed policy blueprint put together by the right-wing Heritage Foundation — outlined not just a hardline policy agenda, but a novel theory of how to wield power to get it done. Its chapters showed how a conservative president could aggressively use executive authority to strengthen the parts of the government he liked, like immigration enforcement, and smash the parts he didn’t, like foreign aid and the civil service.

Project 2025 and Trump wanted to reduce the size of the federal government, reduce taxes for normal Americans and small businesses, to increase energy independence, get manufacturing in the US, get the Government off the backs of the citizens, reduce its power. What about the Democrats?

The most prominent Democratic response to Project 2025 — an effort from a leading think tank, officially called “Project 2029” — seems undersized. A grab-bag series of conventional policy proposals, addressing issues like kids’ online safety and “the annoyance economy,” it does not even seek to grapple with the fundamental problem of a broken government.

But after months of reporting, I’ve learned that there is a quieter effort underway to build a true equivalent to Project 2025: a set of ideas for remaking the government just as sharply as Trump and Vought did — and perhaps more permanently.

The real Project 2029, as I’ve taken to calling it, isn’t yet a public document. But its broad agenda has become a point of consensus across the Democratic Party’s major factions. And importantly, its core ideas have real buy-in among both congressional Democrats and the top 2028 presidential hopefuls.

Weird that Democrats do not want to tell Americans what it is, but, Zack has a few notions. The “plan” yammers about turning an authoritarian government into a pro-democracy one, but, this seems to involve a lot increasing government (like we’ve seen in California)

Basically, what they are pushing is a federal government that cannot be stopped, and is, at best, the plan of the DSA light. What they want is a government where Democrats control it, it’s almost impossible to get them out of office, that they can jam through any legislation they want, and the Supreme Court will back anything they do.

This is a very long piece, which you often get at Vox, with a lot of flowery language meant to make the whole thing palitable, but

But perhaps the single best publicly available guide to Project 2029 thinking is a recent series of policy papers published on the website Just Security called the “Reinvention Blueprints,” edited jointly by Rahman and Sam Berger (another Biden OIRA vet, who also works with Hertel-Fernandez at EDI).

That is really all about Los Federales gaining more and more power and it being harder and harder for We The People to stop them.
