Well, I'm going to assume you know some programming here, so here it goes.
You could write a small program to do this, which I really can't do, but can
explain. You have it give the screen and music, and then the options the
user selects are passed on to Doom as cmd-line parameters. (For the gore
one, I don't know how exactly you'd do this, except selecting different
graphic WAD's, which would be a pain, because you would either have to
append all sprites or merge the WAD).
Then, write a batch file like this:
- -------clip this line-------
@echo off
doomntro
if errorlevel 100 goto END
doom2 @doomntro.rsp
doomntro -e
:END
- -------clip this line-------
In this example, the program would be DOOMNTRO.EXE. You could have it's
initial screen and parameters chosen here. It would write them to a
response file, DOOMNTRO.RSP, and then run Doom from the batch file with this
response file. when Doom exits, the program would be run with a command
line parameter which tells it to show the exit screen instead of the opening
screen. The END piece would be to exit without running Doom. In C, you
would do an exit(100); to get this effect.
There, I hope you're sufficently confused. :)

Then, just run DOOM from within the program, and upon exiting, continue with
the program, which will be showing the appropriate ending. To better this, try
replacing the ENDOOM lump with a blank screen.

This list is still active, but your name doesn't appear on the subscriber's
list.
You should resubscribe.

Well don't I feel smart.
Obviously, that wasn't meant for the list. (Telling someone he's not on the
list through the list--duh.)
A mail program is a dangerous thing in the wrong hands.
