接受不了结局的可以看看剧本最初的结局设定：

AL和Joe烧女主的尸体。。。完结

这篇文章也透露了为什么女主这样自毁式报复：

Mulligan said Cassie is “cavalier with her life for her cause.”大概就是为了这个”因“（为好友伸张正义、报复）而不在乎自己的生命/生活

The first version of the script ended with Al and Joeburning Cassie’s body. In other words, bleak as hell! Fennell’s financiers balked, she said with a laugh: “They were, like, ‘Come on, we’re going to give you money to make this!’ But in my heart, I think that’s where it would have ended.”

When she originally sat down to write the script, Fennell had yet another ending in mind — one in which Cassie walks into Al’s bachelor party and triumphs — “the big, fuck you, cathartic ending,” she said, in which Cassie “is going to put on a sexy outfit and she’s going to kill a ton of guys!”

“It was never written,” she continued, “because the moment Cassie is in that room, I realized that there is no way of honestly showing that. Because it’s not true. And it was important to me to play out as realistically as I could, what this would look like.”

Indeed, Fennell realized that the fuck-you revenge ending was physically impossible: “I cannot imagine being in a room with a man and threatening him where it plays out in any different way — no matter how much we want it to be the case.”

After all, from Al’s point of view, he would be scared for his life. On set, Fennell told Lowell, “You’re a good guy. You love your fiancé! Something happened at university that you barely remember with a girl that was, as far as you guys were all concerned, crazy drunk, and always shagged everyone.

“This woman is going to do something terrible to you,” she said. “You’re going to fight for your life and it’s going to be horrific for both of you.”

But make no mistake — Fennell loves the ending on screen.

“Somebody as meticulous as Cassie does not go to a cabin in the middle of nowhere with a ton of drunk men thinking that something bad might not happen,” Fennell said. “And so she’s made arrangements for if she doesn’t come back that will expose all of them.”

Mulligan agreed. She said they filmed a scene that didn’t make it into the movie in which Cassie had a bruise on her hand, showing that one of her evenings seeking bad men in bars “had gone wrong.” She knows she’s always putting herself in danger, and in the case of Al’s bachelor party, “she knows that that’s a very, very strong possibility” that she might die. But to Cassie, “it’s worth the immense risk.”

Mulligan said Cassie is “cavalier with her life for her cause.”

Cassie would also know by then that she wouldn’t be able to count on Ryan. Indeed, when the police come to ask him questions about her disappearance — which would be a chance for him to do the right thing and say she’d gone to Al’s party — he protects his old friend and sells her out — reinforcing the detective’s idea that she was “unstable.”

“She was not in a good place,” Ryan tells him.

“He so wants to be good,” Fennell said. “But he’s not going to blow up his own life.”

And then there’s this: Envisioning Al getting arrested at his own wedding is something that Fennell thinks Cassie would enjoy. “I think Cassie has a very, very sick sense of humor,” she said, laughing. “And I think that the idea of destroying Al’s wedding would have made it almost worth it for her so much. She hates him so much!”
