As dark as this movie is, I honestly liked it more than I expected. Dave Bautista's performance was a BIG reason; he has so much gravitas, and he's so nuanced, you find yourself asking why he doesn't land more dramatic roles like this.

I’m sure after his performance in this he will be offered more similar roles. I agree with you, his performance in this was brilliant.

[@chibiwolf1005]

reading up on it, i personally prefer the original way the book did it. (for those curious, spoilers for the book: Andrew escapes at some point and gets his gun out of the car, which he uses to kill Adrienne, but he ends up in a struggle with Leonard over the gun and it goes off and Wen is accidentally shot and killed. Everyone is sad, Leonard lets himself be tied up by Andrew and Eric, but then tells them that since Wen wasn't a willing sacrifice, the apocalypse is still going to happen. Basically he says Andrew or Eric still has to die. By the end of the book Sabrina kills Leonard and then tells them they can still prevent the apocalypse and then she kills herself, but Andrew and Eric decide that they will stay together because they don't want to lose each other after already losing Wen. Andrew says that he won't obey a god who doesn't accept Wen's death as enough, and they take her body with them to Redmond's car, and to whatever destination they're headed for next.)
