Alternate Death Scene? **SPOILERS**


The scene where the kid gets eaten alive has got to be the most brutal scenes ever put in a horror film. The fact that we see the kid one second before he is dissolved (a terrified look, followed by a faint attempt to scream, presumed by the fact that his lungs were burning away) made it more shocking. However, I read in trivia that Eddie's (that's his name, right?) and Paul's death scenes
had alternate scenes shot. I can't find them anyplace online or otherwise. Does anyone have any screenshots of these scenes? I'd always wondered how those scenes appeared. I can only imagine they look more gory and more grisly in their appearance.

I'm so scared your little head will come off in my hands!
