Does GODSEND set a record for alternate endings?

The GODSEND DVD contains 4 alternate endings! I don't ever remember seeing that many before. Is this a record or has anothter film/DVD boasted more endings?

I think Joy-Ride has at least 4 alternate endings, one of them is 29 minutes long too.

This doesn't suprise me (about Godsend). The movie's ending looked as if it had been rewritten a dozen times.

Yup, the Joy Ride DVD had an entirely different third act. The final product was pretty good too... unlike Godsend. :)

If you include the Director's Cut ending, Butterfly Effect has 4 alternate endings, as well.

One alternate ending is good. Two alternate endings is stretching i t, but it can work well... FOUR alternate endings just says to me that teh writer/director/both didn't know how to tie it up, or the studio wasn't happy with whatever they did and demanded different endings.

This was the case in Joy Ride... but even though Dahl didn't seem to know which way to end the film, the different endings are quite good!
