YMMV / The Endless

• Angst? What Angst?: Of the two returning characters from Resolution, Mike seems to be handling their "trapped in an eternal time-loop" situation better than Chris, who appears to have been broken by the experience. This is likely because he still has hope that one day they'll appease the entity and he'll make it home to his wife and child.
• Complete Monster: The entity is a monstrous, ancient being that desires "stories" for its amusement, and to accomplish this lures many people to its realm so it can trap them for eternity. Those trapped by the entity are stuck in time loops, ranging in time variations from multiple years to mere seconds, and forced to do things for the entity's viewing pleasure before then killing themselves at the end of their loops, lest the entity personally and painfully kill them itself. One victim is shown to have lived for a hundred years in a 5-second long loop wherein he has to kill himself unendingly simply to avoid the entity murdering him even more agonizingly. The entity traps Mike and Chris inside its loops by luring them to its land, and later tries to do the same to Justin and Aaron, all while communicating with its many victims via video recordings and manipulations to their surroundings that establish the entity as a sadistic and cruel excuse for a "god".
• Ensemble Dark Horse: A number of viewers have said that Shitty Carl is one of the best parts of the movie due to his actor James Jordan's hilarious performance.
