According to Ian Christie, a film historian, and a professor of film and media history, the imagery of the film's final chapter strongly evokes Hieronymus Bosch's apocalyptic vision of "The Last Judgment," with its vulnerable copulating bodies. As a a triptych painting, the left panel shows the Garden of Eden: at the top God is shown seated in Heaven, while the Rebel Angels are cast out of Heaven and transformed into insects. At the foot of the panel, God creates Eve from the rib of Adam. In the mid-ground Eve is tempted by the Serpent. Towards the center of the panel, Adam and Eve are chased by the Angel into the dark forest. In the central panel, Jesus judges the souls while surrounded by the Saints. The right panel shows a hellscape, where the wicked are punished.
