It seems almost like a horror twist, discovering that the movie is basically embodying the antagonistic force in the book.

Aww... I didn't feel that way at all. It seeded my imagination.

The sequel movies, on the other hand, are trash.

I don't usually recommend this channel, but Mother's Basement has a really excellent video that discusses Neverending Story near the end (he spends most of it talking about DBZ).
