God (Legion)

God (or at least a being claiming to be so) is the central antagonist of the film Legion - unlike most depictions of the Christian God this movie shows him as a vengeful, cruel deity in lines with the gnostic Demiurge who has lost all faith in humanity and thus sends down his angels to possess humans and cause them to commit random acts of violence and horror upon each other.

God's plan is ultimately to exterminate all life and thus one of his angels rebels and fights against God's forces in order to protect the unborn child of a woman destined to give birth to a Messiah-figure with the potential to end the madness God had created.

Although God seemingly forgave humanity at the end of the movie many viewers still see him as unable to be redeemed due to the indiscriminate slaughter he brought upon the world - though as with many things depicting the divine it is left dubious as to wheter or not God truly keeps his word or not.
