I read in a previous Q&A where you weren't in the woods for the initial filming, but you were there when you guys took Mike Williams back to shoot alternate endings at Artisan's request.
Could you tell us about some of those alternate endings?
It would be wonderful to see the outtakes on this - but I can't imagine an ending that would have more effective than the original used. It was perfect.
Thanks, Victoria

There's not too much to say about the other endings, as the only change in them was the very last shot in the film, coming down the steps and seeing Mike. We shot all kinds of variations, including Mike hanging in the corner, Mike hanging and cut up and covered in blood, Mike "floating" in the corner, unconscious, "floating," unconscious, and bloody, etc. A few other variations. On shot had the camera bumping into Mike's bloody body.
The audio would have remained exactly the same as in the original film. Artisan thought that if the ending were more definitive than more people would like the film, but ultimately I think the ambiguous ending is what makes the film interesting to discuss!
