Good movie destroyed by idiotic ending

I'll spare you a full review. I just have to say that it was a pretty good film, right up until the last few minutes. The film jarringly switches gears completely, presenting itself as if the film and the negative ending were a true story. It's not.
So why pull such a cynical switch-er-roo?
Slut shaming? Slut scaring? Self sabotage on the part of the writer / director? An effort to side step away from the idea that an 18 year old girl can own her own sensuality? Maybe some combination of the above?
It not only ruins the film, but it really exploits the tragedy of real girls and women who go missing in order to provide a self indulgent "twist" ending.
Totally unnecessary when the actual film was rather good.
