The Ruins (2008)
Ending / spoiler
Directed by: Carter Smith
Starring: Jena Malone, Shawn Ashmore, Jonathan Tucker, Laura Ramsey
Jeff McIntire makes Amy play possum, as he carries her down the temple, then distracts the local Mayans allowing her to escape, while he is cut down by arrows then finished off with a shot to the head. Only as she's fleeing back to civilization, Dimitri's mates show up at the ruins looking for him. Alternate ending: Amy drives away from the ruins and the locals and there's a close up shot on her face revealing that the vines are inside her. Some time later, Amy dies and at a cemetery, the caretaker notices some vines on Amy's grave...

Trivia: Throughout the film, the five characters on the Mayan structure walk around in thin clothing day and night. In reality, it was quite chilly; the director and crew wore jackets to shield them from the cold.
