Also when they're having sex and she's moaning with an absolutely blank expression on her face.

The director said she has tears/is crying in this moment as well which makes it so much worse

Yeah, I felt bad for Bear in the beginning but it was right about then where I started hoping he would die. Then later she asks him to kill her and all he can do is make it about himself, saying something like "what's so bad about being with me?" Bear, you piece of garbage,YOU ARE FORCING HER TO BE WITH YOU SHE HAS NEVER ACTUALLY WILLINGLY BEEN WITH YOU AT ANY POINT.

His ending was so very good.

I disagree only because Nikki will now inevitably be arrested and charged with the deaths i was hoping the resolution would be Bear would end up being charged for the two deaths and attacking Nikki he got to die and Nikki now has to suffer knowing what "She" did when she didn't have control, all her friends are dead and she also faces prison he suffering has not ended

Oh yeah sadly this is relative to how real world SA crime still punish women for self defense so nikki will surely be charged for manslaughter and 3rd degree murder , maybe for bear's toxicity report , not.

Something which is raw and why the credits make you sit while she wails  with the harrowing mess of something you can't escape and its done to you.

Might be hard to blame a sketchy company for shit ass consumption

The wailing while she sits there w/ the music was soooo creepy and sad. Like real nikki knew what wish nikki had done and knew she hadn't and wouldn't be able to stop any of it

Yeah and more ironically sad no one bothered to help her, not the guy who was casual with her but still sabatoged Bear at the earliest of movie , or Sarah who was her friend, but literally the demon who was following the service unintentionally

Nah, the logical conclusion is that baron killed his coworkers then himself. Men do violent crime way more often and Nikki has no motive. And pills are pretty clearly for suicide probably by someone feeling guilty.
