11. Soylent Green
A dystopian setting is common for many Sci-Fi films, and this 1970s classic brought forth quite the twist among the hunger craze.
Suffering from overpopulation and depleted resources, a futuristic 2022 New York is desperate for food. The leading distributor of processed food rations, the Soylent Corporation, develops a new product called “Soylent Green”, said to be a high-energy plankton from the world’s oceans.
This new found life saver turns out to be the remains of human corpses, which shocked all those in the film just as much as those watching. This repugnant twist ending led to a shocking fate we humans hope to never endure.
