Plot

"The End" is a black comedy about a man, Wendell Sonny Lawson (Reynolds), who only has six months to live. Not wanting to live his last few months of life waiting for the end, he decides to take his own life.

After trying several times by himself and failing, he ends up at a psychiatric hospital where he meets a very disturbed fellow patient (DeLuise) who agrees to help him in his quest for suicide. This "help" however, winds up almost killing Sonny...and not in a good way.
