  1. Underwater was one of the worst movies I’ve ever seen (but STILL WORTH IT because how many bad action movies helmed by muscly men have I sat through over my life, I am happy to sit through a bad one with a queer person with a buzzed head running around in it), BUT this alt ending makes it like at least 35% better?

      • How much do I need to know about the plot of the original movie to appreciate the alternate ending :)?

        • I bet you can guess the entire plot from watching the ending and knowing it’s a movie about a sea monster!

          • Okay, just watched it, and it was a bit blah, but I guess the difference must be that Kristen Stewart’s character had a different fate in the released version?! Anyway, too bad it wasn’t a better movie overall, but maybe it will do for a quarantine movie night sometime :).

  2. I thought Underwater was going to be incredibly stupid but it was actually a pretty fun movie 🤷‍♀️

  3. obvi loved Kristen Stewart and surprisingly loved UNDERWATER which I saw alone in a theater full of men? I much prefer the theatrical ending though! minus the corny monologue.

  4. I just finished watching Underwater for the first time and remembered that there was a scrap of content about the movie published somewhere here on AS many months ago 😂 glad I could watch this alternate ending! MUCH BETTER!
