You know that alien abduction movie, "Fire in the Sky?" Here's how it should have ended...

When Travis goes to see Mike two years later, he takes him to the site of the abduction and they make up and become friends again.

I always thought it could have been so much better. Travis and Mike arrive at the site. Mike says "Why'd you bring me here?" (Like he says in the original ending.) Travis looks around and gets out of the car. He looks at Mike and says, "You know, I never could figure out why they let me go. They could've kept me. Experimented on me. Tortured me until I was nothing more than a pile of goo. But they let me go. Why? Two nights ago they came back."

The camera pans to Mike as his eyes go wide.

Travis continues, "It turns out they like to go fishing too."

Travis looks up. A bright light shines over the car as Mike screams.

Roll credits.

(I spent some time in the town where that happened, knew the players socially through their kids/niblings. Not only a better ending, FAR more plausible.)
