well we're never watching these films the same way again that's for sure welcome to watchmojo.com and today we're counting down our picks for the top ten darkest movie theories and if fan theories are your thing why not check out watch mojo UK's list on the top 10 Harry Potter fan theories for this list we're looking at the darkest and most depraved movie theories on the Internet and ranking them based on the depravity of the theory in question and just how well each of them works however twisted they may be number 10 Rose imagined Jack to cope with her depression Titanic [Music] there are a lot of theories circling the web about Titanic but none are likely as dark as the theory that rose imagine Jack to cope with her suicidal depression after all the first time Jack and Rose meet is when Rose is about to kill herself stay back don't come any closer perhaps she imagined this beautiful and charming man to cope with her unhappy life and abusive fiance this would also explain why there are no records of Jack he simply doesn't exist we never found anything on Jack there's no record of him at all no there wouldn't be with there and I've never spoken of him until now some people also believe that Jack is a time traveler from the future and while a case could be made for that it isn't quite as dark as depressed woman imagines a charming man to save herself from suicide number 9 Kevin McCallister grows up to be jigsaw the Home Alone franchise and the Saw franchise she doesn't have before the other way around isn't that right mr. Holman Peter as you all know the first to home alone movies concerned Kevin setting traps against a couple of stupid criminals but doesn't he seem to have a little too much fun and torturing and causing these men extreme pain according to some Kevin never grew out of his need to create elaborate sadistic traps changed his name to John Kramer perhaps after serving some time and later became the jigsaw killer to satisfy his psychotic need to torture people okay the timeline doesn't really add up as Kevin is 8 in 1990 while jigsaw is in his 50s in the early 2000s but just ignore that and go with it oh that I'm jigsaw that Kevin McAllister drew up to group to be jigsaw from saw yeah yeah I've heard that one number 8 the Joker is a disgruntled ex soldier The Dark Knight this one isn't so much dark as it is just sad and scary according to one popular theory the Joker is a war veteran who's gone psychotic there are numerous traits to his character that seemed to support this including his weapons knowledge his physical fighting skills his tactical know-how and his ability to perfectly perform the funeral ritual a few of his quotes also suggest military experience including never start with the head the victim gets all fuzzy and resentment like if tomorrow I tell the press that like a gangbanger will get shot or a truckload of soldiers will be blowing up nobody panics the Joker is clearly psychotic but he could also be a very pained and traumatized man see I'm not a monster I'm just ahead of the curve number 7 the briefcase contains Marsellus Wallace's sole Pulp Fiction the mysterious briefcase is a classic example of a MacGuffin it drives the plot but understanding it is ultimately inconsequential theories abound but some have gone so far as to suggest that it contains the very soul of Marcellus Wallace according to the theory the devil took Marcellus his soul from the of his neck hence that weird neck band-aid the code to the briefcase is also 666 suggesting Marcellus is deal with the devil another thing to note is the orange glow that flashes upon Brett's death which is perhaps indicative of his soul leaving his body is orange the color of our souls and is Marcellus is contained within that briefcase number six the entirety of Greece is Sandy's death fantasy Greece Danny this is the end charming nostalgic musical or elaborate death fantasy you be the judge because you all secretly know every word to summer nights you all know Danny's line [Music] but what if he didn't according to the theory sandy did drown and the entire movie is a wish-fulfilling fantasy that Sandy's brain plays out as she dies this certainly helps to explain the weird ending where Danny and Sandy fly away in the car which can be interpreted as Sandy's final ascent into the afterlife for those who've always wondered what the deal was with that scene you've got a possible explanation just not a very happy one I've just had the best summer of my life and now I have to go away it isn't fair number five Josh killed Heather and Mike the Blair Witch Project the ending to the Blair Witch Project is already dark but this theory makes it even darker midway through the movie josh goes missing and Heather discovers a bundle of sticks containing bloody clothes and teeth however Josh's body is never found and Heather and Mike continue to hear him screaming indicating that he is still alive at the end of the movie both Heather and Mike are seemingly killed by the Blair Witch however it very well could have been Josh who murdered the students either through possession or of his own free will the lack of answers is precisely what makes this movie so divisive inviting this sort of dark what-if interpretation number four Peter Pan is the Angel of Death Peter Pan Oh Peter I knew you'd come back well so much for this whimsical children's tale there are numerous theories regarding Disney's Peter Pan and a lot of them boil down to Peter Pan being a childish grim reaper and neverland being the afterlife one theory posits that Wendy dies of leukemia and Peter guides her to the afterlife also known as Neverland where many of Wendy's real-life acquaintances are cartoonishly exaggerated another theory posits that Wendy John and Michael all died were transported to the afterlife by Peter and meant more dead children also known as The Lost Boys why do you think they never grow up well if you died in childhood you literally can't I'm certainly proud of you Blockheads number three Toy Story 3 is about the Holocaust Toy Story 3 [Music] we all know that Toy Story 3 is the saddest movie ever but this theory does the seemingly impossible by making it even sadder to begin with the toys are left behind similar to the Jewish people in Germany during the Third Reich they then discuss what happened and what to do in a scene very similar to The Pianist and buzz suggests going to the Attic like Anne Frank going to Natick boat folks keep your accessories with you at all times they're then transported in a box like a train to a daycare full of undesired toys like a concentration camp here they're mistreated and eventually sent to an incinerator we're not sure if this was intended or not but the parallels are heartbreaking [Music] number two Doc Brown was trying to commit suicide back to the future have you ever wondered why doc was standing in the path of the DeLorean well wonder no more according to this theory he was suicidal right before sending the DeLorean back in time doc laments his many past failings which speaks to motive he feels like a failure it's taken me almost 30 years of my entire family fortune to realize the vision of that day he's also being hunted by the libyans and perhaps plans on killing himself before they can as doc sees it it's a win-win situation either the time machine is a success and his work respected or he dies and is trouble with failure and the libyans die with him if so he fully intended on taking both Marty and Einstein with him number one Willy Wonka's candy is made from dead children Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory beautiful throughout the movie it's established that Willy Wonka is a candy genius as his candy tastes far better than his competitors perhaps indicating a secret ingredient that secret ingredient children at least according to this theory Wonka brings children into his factory under the guise of a tour then rigs his factory into a massive death trap to capture the children this would explain his uncaring attitude towards the kids health and safety hell please it would also explain the human-sized pipes and how the boat and Wonka mobile don't have any vacant seats Wonka knew the numbers would dwindle because he had every intention of murdering those children and using them for his candy stop don't come back do you agree with our picks check out these other great clips from watch mojo and subscribe for new videos every day you
