8 Horror Movies With Different Endings In Different Countries

8. Black Christmas (2006)

Anyone who saw 2006's Black Christmas remake in cinemas in the UK got not merely a different ending but a massively reworked version of the whole movie, including numerous different, gorier death scenes missing in the version of the film released in the US and elsewhere.

Most prominently, the film's hospital-set climax ends quite differently, with killer Billy Lenz (Robert Mann) dying from burns sustained in a fire as the hospital's staff attempts in vain to revive him.

In the more fist-pumping US ending, however, Billy is killed when protagonist Kelli (Katie Cassidy) pushes him over a railing, causing him to be impaled on the inexplicably sharp tip of a Christmas tree, because why the hell not?

Granted, neither ending can salvage what's a fundamentally poor remake, though in this case it's at least easy to appreciate why the decision was made to serve up a more exciting ending for the US market which leaned a little more eagerly into the film's generally schlocky vibe.
