20 Best Movies Where Main Characters Were Dead All Along (MovieWeb)

"Plot twists and cliffhanger endings are the defining factors for plenty of movie-lovers. Between the thrill and shock of a revelation, a plot twist can make or break a film. Some of these revelations are more significant than others to the plot. But there's one plot twist that will break an audience in half: a main character has been dead the entire time. As divisive as this plot twist is, it can also be the starting point for some movies. The events leading up to or after the death of the main character are also significant. But films where the main characters don't know they are dead and thus discover they are dead is another adventure altogether. While the concept of death is macabre, nearly every genre has used this motif.Here's a look at 20 movies where main characters were dead all along." - movieweb.com
