10 Deleted Movie Endings Way Better Than What We Got

10. Army Of Darkness

Now, don't misunderstand, the ending we got to Army Of Darkness in theaters was by no means bad. It wouldn't be at the bottom of the list if that were the case. But all the same, the ending that Sam Raimi wanted the film to have is generally agreed upon to be better.

It features everyone's favorite demon-hunting nincompoop, Ash Williams, being sent back to his own time after the events of the film. In the finished version, he did what he was told like a good boy, took five drops of the sleeping potion, and woke up when he needed to wake up.

But in the original ending, Ash, being Ash, miscounts the drops, instead taking seven, and so ends up sleeping way longer than he was supposed to. He then wakes up after the demons have had their way with humanity, lamenting that he did indeed sleep too long. Making for a superior ending that fits much more in line with what is expected of Sam Raimi in his prime: hilarious bleakness.

Or, judging by the ruined Big Ben in the apocalyptic imagery, maybe we handled the demons just fine and Ash just woke up right after Brexit went into effect.
