Ultimate Evil

"I will be among you... soon."

- Mr. Shadow aka The Ultimate Evil.

The Ultimate Evil (also known as "Anti-Life", the "Anti-Lifeforce", the Great Evil and Mr. Shadow) is the true main antagonist of the 1997 sci-fi film The Fifth Element.

Synopsis
The Ultimate Evil is an ancient cosmic force that has for thousands of years tried to destroy Earth after it's emergence through a celestial alignment of 3 planets and 1 sun which happens every 5000 years, but each time has been thwarted by the Fifth Element. In the 23rd century, it approaches planet Earth upon finding out that the five elements are no longer in place to stop it. The Evil then tried to get the four elemental stones via grunts, but they failed get them as the stones were handed to another.

After a few failures, the Ultimate Evil swallowed several satellites and used them to tell its follower Jean-Baptiste Emanuel Zorg of Zorg Industries that it would be arriving soon. By the end of the film, The Evil is once again thwarted by the power of the Fifth Element, killing it forever.

Powers and Abilities
The Ultimate Evil cannot be killed by force. Any military weapons fired at it will only nourish it. The Ultimate Evil can annihilate anyone who gets too close to it without even trying due to its malicious energy. It also possesses the ability to communicate by swallowing up several satellites. When Zorg talks to the Evil on the phone, he is shown cringing in pain just from hearing its voice. Anyone who approaches or hears the Ultimate Evil will sweat a mysterious brown liquid (possibly blood).

If the Ultimate Evil can get to the altar within the Temple of the Elements without any interference from the Fifth Element, it will use the power from the other four Elements to bring about untold horrors for thousands of years.
