i've always been drawn to horror and never fully understood why but adrian chiarella articulates this so beautifully, it is so amazing to see a queer film by a director who truly understands the intricacies of being queer
going in to see leviticus for the first time i really thought it would just be great and i’d move on like i do with every other movie . I genuinely was not expecting a full obsession to start
the spell was “all your indecency and all your lust” but naim feels something much deeper for ryan and the entity recognized that and therefore was stunted. naims desire is so much more than sexual in its nature and that’s what homophobes don’t realize when it comes to queer love
this is the reason i love that scene of them driving in the car after this. its one of my favourite scenes because it shows how arlene chooses faith over rationality. she was so horrified by what she saw, you can see the tears in her eyes in the car and here she's frozen and+
ryan first kissing naim, and naim turns his head away. he lets go of his fists out of fear and backs away thinking he did something he shouldn’t have
oh my poor babies
THIS. it sounds harsh but it’s true, and it’s okay that not everyone is a writer. not everyone *needs* to be a writer. having ideas is not enough to claim yourself as one - you’ve got to be willing to turn that into words on a page that you yourself have crafted.
