Barbarian's ending ends on an emotional note

Don't worry, this isn't a spoiler, but this might pique your interest in watching the film. While the title resonates with the barbaric and bloody acts that go on, it isn't exactly something that goes well with the story.

Barbarian is more about a creature who thinks of herself as a mother and tries to treat her victims like that. Though this creature's care can be fatal, the children may not like the way she does things.

However, the end is pretty emotional, even though this creature doesn't seem to be one worth deserving sympathy. However, get to the end, and you will understand.
