* ''[[Tromeo and Juliet]]'': Not only do the titular characters ''not die'', they discover they're actually [[Brother Sister Incest|siblings]], but then decide to get married anyway, and raise a family of mutant children.(Of course, the ''original'' ending has them run off and get married, then kill themselves in a motel room.)
