(Interesting trope) The monster itself isn’t evil but the reason it was made is.

Obsession: Wish Niki herself isn’t actually evil but because Bear’s wish is so messed up it makes her act out and become more unhinged. This is also combined with the fact that she was basically given the impossible task of keeping a guy with no real personality or love for her interested, so it’s no wonder she acts so drastically.

Leviticus: Although the entity is trying to kill Ryan and Naim, the entity itself isn’t evil. It isn’t a demon with its own desires but instead something that’s representative their internalized homophobia or just the homophobia of the religious cult in general. Being afraid of it is basically being afraid of yourself which is what’s gets you killed. That’s why when Naim embraces entity Ryan instead of fearing it when it’s about to kill him, entity Ryan hesitates. It doesn’t know how to handle love.

Still one of the best space battle scenes of sci-fi history. Probably took up 20% of the movie budget to animate just two minutes of spaceship explosions.

Oh, I can concur, especially the beginning of that battle.

"Bastard's not even turning around." A wild Reaver fleet appears!
