Is there a movie, where a bad guy (a hateable character, like a criminal) completely wins, and, furthermore, gets away with it?


I was searching for list of movies where the bad guys win, and on that list, the bad guys, even though they achieved their goals, were eventually killed or caught. (The Dark knight, Star Wars V, Seven)I know few movies where the bad guy wins and gets away with it: Alien:Covenant, Upgrade (2018), Pet Sematary (2019), some horror movies, Saw series, Midsommar. But the triumphal bad guy in those movies was a robot or a supernatural being or a prominent person/cultist. NEVER your neighbourhood's ordinary killer/criminal.The thing is, there are COUNTLESS movies, where a bad guy is a normal rapist/killer/abductor that does some evil, but in those movies, the bad guy was every single time eventually killed/caught. Even if only in a sequel. I guess it's because that's the type of guy you really don't want to win. That's why when I watch such a movie, I'm wondering: Will this be the first such movie ever with an unexpected ending? And the answer is always no. via /r/movies https://ift.tt/zvFSKE7
