Your Alternate Ending
 
Whilst staring off in to space at my horror collection, I began to just sit there and just think about all the greatness I have seen over the years and the profound feeling that many of these classics have left on me.. and then all the terrible, TerribleCrap ive seen as well, just because the ending had ruined it all...

If I had been given the chance to recreate an ending in any movie, to bring that sense of satisfaction as i see the credits roll at the end, I would take this opportunity in a heartbeat.

So I ask, if you could change any ending to any movie which would it be and how would you do it?

Great idea for a thread.

I'm going to have to get back to you on this one. Gonna really have to think hard. I have two off the top of my head though.

Jeepers Creepers: Instead of Justin Long dieing, i would have had the sister die. It just seemed more fitting to me at the time.

Altitude:Instead of the happy ending where they fix everything and even their parents are okay. I would have had them hit the plane that killed their parents. It made so much sense and would've served as a great ending that perfectly wrapped things up

What about you?

Thank You... It just came to me :)

It is a lot to think about, but the simple one I can think of right now would be...

**SPOILER ALERT!: If you haven't seen "The Mist" **

The Mist: At the very end when the father is screaming in the middle of the road as the Calvary is rolling in, after just shooting his fellow survivors and only son, I wish he would have jumped in front of the rotating wheels of the next oncoming military tank, seeing that he just couldn't live with himself for shooting his friends and loved ones.

But that's just me, if I were in his place, i would have jumped...

Oh man, how did i not think of that one? That's the worst ending in movie history!

I would've gone with the ending in the book.
The same goes for Cujo and The Shining.

Jaws.

At the end you never see the shark blow up - the last thing you see is the air tank starting to come loose from the sharks mouth and then an explosion from a distance leaving some doubt whether or not the shark died.

Then flash forward - Brody is out fishing with his son. The same Great White rises from the water and snatches his child right out of the boat. Brody grabs his arm to try drag him back but after a brief tug-o-war Brody fall back in the boat with his son's severed arm.

Brody then wakes up in bed covered in sweat - we realise it is all a dream. He turns to his wife for comfort but the shark is in bed beside him. Its head sticking out above the covers.

We see a close up of the shark's eyes. He's got lifeless eyes. Black eyes. Like a doll's eyes. His eyes roll back showing white - Brody screams as the screen fades to black.

AND CREDITS.....

I hope that was a joke. If not, you've been making a bunch of other movies havent you! It's all your fault!
