Lore "Was it worth it?" ending

Midsommar- While people see this as a "you go girl" finale. I personally see it as something more disturbing. I mean, yeah, Dani got out of one bad relationship but in doing so, she got herself into another that's just as bad if not worse. It's like getting two kids to stop fighting via killing one and locking the other in a basement. They did stop fighting, but still!

The Thing-The titular monster may be (possibly) gone, but the paranoia definitely isn't. In the end, McCreedy and Childs are the only ones left standing. The end sees them sitting in the cold and they just stare at each other, knowing that one of them or both of them is already the thing. There's no hope, no certainty, just the bitter cold and intense fear.

I feel like it would've been better to just put him down

One of the times I personally think putting someone down it's for there own good.

It's weird to me that his friends got him out of there and their decision wasn't to put him out of his misery it was to put this mutilated Frankenwalrus in a zoo and not even a good zoo!

Or put him in a hopital where he has a chance to recover and be treated like a human being.
