Watch an Alternate Ending for ‘Send Help’, Now on Digital

With the home release of Send Help, horror legend Sam Raimi’s survival horror comedy starring Rachel McAdams and Dylan O’Brien, 20th Century Studios has shared with EW an alternate ending that nearly made the cut.

In the film, a woman (McAdams) and her overbearing boss (O’Brien) become stranded on a deserted island after a plane crash. They must overcome past grievances and work together to survive, but ultimately, it’s a battle of wills and wits to make it out alive.

“At the end of the film, the once-put-upon office worker is basking in the glow of her victory: One year after slaying her horrible boss, after getting stranded on a remote island together, she’s now a celebrity for turning her story into a self-help career.

“The original ending sees Linda riding off into the sunset of her newfound fame, but the alternate conclusion features a rather tense confrontation between her and Franklin, a senior executive at her old job, played by Dennis Haysbert.

“Franklin attempts to not-so-subtly blackmail Linda by sharing that he knows Bradley’s fiancée, Zuri (Edyll Ismail), charted a boat to go find him and that said boat was found washed up on the shores of a private island. He also learned the owner of the house on that island filed a break-in report.

“Franklin plays right into Linda’s hand as yet another male in power who drastically underestimates her.”
