10 Scrapped Movie Scenes Better Than What We Got

7. Pinhead Joins The Party - Freddy Vs. Jason

The inherent problem with "vs." movies is that neither rights-holder wants their IP to lose, and so these films typically always end with a cop-out "no contest" finale, where there's no outright winner or they simply end up joining forces to battle a bigger foe.

That was certainly the case with 2003's enjoyably daft Freddy vs. Jason, which ended with Jason (Ken Kirzinger) emerging from Camp Crystal Lake holding Freddy's (Robert Englund) decapitated head.

But of course, Freddy winks at the camera mere moments before the end credits roll, indicating the battle is far from over.

The film's ending went through numerous iterations, perhaps the most tantalising of which would've seen Freddy and Jason's fight interrupted with the pair being strung up by chains.

At that moment, Pinhead (Doug Bradley) emerges from the shadows and quips, "Now, gentlemen, what seems to be the problem?"

While this ending wouldn't have provided any additional closure to the titular battle - quite the opposite, in fact - it would've been one hell of a set-up for a potential sequel, which despite Freddy vs. Jason's commercial success curiously never happened.
