Leviticus

So disappointing! Advertised as a horror, this pretty much superficially resembles it follows and even has similar beats but I honestly think I’m just good for a while on this whole being terrified by a metaphor genre we are in currently, I have horror metaphor fatigue! Completely competent, I’ll admit good premise especially in this climate we are in, what if desire could be transfigured or exorcised, essentially a movie about what it’s like to be gay in a time when it’s not acceptable but honestly the movie don’t have enough gas to sustain itself, it lays all of its mythology cards out pretty early on, sure has some creepiness but not enough and This never ONCE grabbed me like it follows did, that film was a proper corker horror movie that kept me glued to screen for its runtime. The ending is also disappointing too but I think that lack of resolution is kinda the idea.  It’s really just a drama with some supernatural horror sprinkled in with a metaphor so huge it could literally stand in for so many things. A bit of a shame but it’s 80 minutes so no harm no foul at the end of day!
