Spoiler alert: for newly arrived interstellar aliens who have not yet picked up the DVD.
Towards the end of Raiders of the Lost Ark, Rene Belloq has captured the Ark of the Covenant (and Indiana Jones and Marion) and opens it to see what treasures therein lie. Magnificent spirits emerge swooping around the cave until one immensely beautiful spirit hovers before Belloq.
"It's beautiful!" he exclaims in sheer delight at the vision until a moment later it morphs into a unimaginable horrible creature which engulfs and destroys him as he screams in agony and excruciating pain.
I wonder if Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, upon passing from this life, saw a vision of 70 virgins, beautiful beyond description, welcoming him with open arms. "They're beautiful!" he exclaims in sheer delight at the magnificent vision only to be bewildered as they merge into one virgin and then aghast as the one virgin morphs into the Holy and Righteous God that judges in perfect justice.
I wonder if Zarqawi thinks all the evil he perpetuated during the wisp of his life is now worth his eternal screams of agony and the weeping and gnashing of teeth. Zarqawi now knows true terror.
