* All of the film adaptions of [[Agatha Christie]]'s ''[[And Then There Were None]]'' (with the notable exception of the Russian version) use a different ending from the book; the killer's identity is usually left unchanged, but their [[The Perfect Crime|Perfect Crime]] doesn't go as perfectly as it does in the book.
* In the remake of ''[[The Wolf Man]]'', {{spoiler|Lawrence is not killed by his father, nor does it turn out that Malevra's son is the one who bit him. Instead, his father is the werewolf that killed Lawrence's brother and bit him. The film ends with Lawrence, as a werewolf, killing his transformed father and in turn being shot by Gwen.

However, Ron is unable to relax, so Hermione ends up thwarting it the same way she did in the book, [[Weakened by the Light|by targeting light at it]].
