About the alternate ending *SPOILERS*

I can see why they didn't use this ending, this ending could have been a cliff hanger for another film. But I think the studio probably said hell no lets this finish this series once and for all and probably made them shoot the ending we have where Toby become human, defeats everyone and gets Leila.

Hmm, I guess that makes more sense, more sense than the original ending anyway...

Or maybe the entire neighbourhood was brainwashed by the Coven and the mother was carrying Kent's demon spawn?

But I doubt the parents would of forgiven him so easily, everything they were put through was because of him, and they would of had him arrested, that's IF they weren't somehow indoctrinated into the Coven. But yeah, both endings have 0 logic.

One of the earlier movies, #2 or #3, said that the families get brainwashed into forgetting what really happened. Both the adult versions of Katie and Kristy have faint memories of what they went through as kids.

Yes, the demon was banished or something, but I suppose that he somehow imprinted part of himself on to the videotapes as a way of maintaining his presence. Kind of like the Harry Potter thing where Voldemort put part of his soul into certain objects, so that even if his body is destroyed, part of him remains, which gave him a chance to return.

Also a bit like The Ring, where the girl put herself in the videotapes to spread her influence to larger areas.

Or, the writers came up with it because the entire series had bullsh!t scenes that made no sense, so adding one more couldn't harm the story.

Most deleted/alternate scenes are there just to pad out a lack of content .
