What if every movie with a grim ending got a Speak No Evil-style remake?
Briefly

Christian Tafdrup's 'Speak No Evil' delivers a haunting, bleak ending, while James Watkins' remake opts for an action-packed, more optimistic conclusion, shifting genres.
The 2024 'Speak No Evil' remake adds an unexpected action-infused half-hour, diverging from the original's tragic wrap-up to carve out a happy ending.
Changing the ending of memorable films, like 'The Vanishing,' is not uncommon; however, the 2024 version of 'Speak No Evil' redefines expectations by altering its genre.
This remake feels like a form of fanfiction, exploring a 'what if...' scenario that provides a cathartic alternative to the original film's grim conclusion.
