Remorseless to the end

Nathaniel: I love the smell of burned witch in the morning.
Phoebe: At least I'm paying for my crime. There'll come a day where you have to pay for yours too.
Nathaniel: Remorseless to the end, huh.

Could you tell me what "remorseless to the end" means here? Is this a fixed expression?

Not particularly, no. It's simply saying that, even as she is about to die, she still will not apologise and seek forgiveness for the things she has done wrong. She shows no remorse, even though it is the end of her life.

This appears to be an adaptation of a famous line from the film Apocalypse Now.
