Law & Order: Organized Crime roars back to screens with its Season 5 premiere after nearly a full year away. “Lost Highway” is a grimy, high-octane episode that wastes no time reigniting the franchise’s core elements: undercover chaos, institutional tension, and the ever-complicated heart of Elliot Stabler. With its move to streaming, the show has grown darker, bolder, and bloodier -- quite literally kicking things off with a burning corpse and a badge being thrown into the flames.

All good horror thrives on the unknown, but sometimes it really thrives on the unknown. While plenty of scary movies love to tie things up in a neat, terrifying bow, others seem dead set on making sure you leave the theater (or your couch) more confused than when you started. These are the films that don’t just end on a question mark -- they practically mock you for expecting anything else.

In fact, when it comes to horror, shorter is often better. Since horror relies on tension and fear of the unknown, it's easy to desensitize an audience or lose steam after extended scares or after a big reveal.

Twilight Zone Published 6 minutes ago Follow Followed Link copied to clipboard Sign in to your CBR account The Twilight Zone and the works of David Lynch might not be identical twins, but they could certainly be long-lost siblings.
