## Resource

A haunting new supernatural thriller, Leviticus, follows Naim, a new kid in town who falls for Ryan—only to report Ryan’s infidelity to the church his mom recently joined. What follows is a terrifying ritual led by a “deliverance healer” that unravels Ryan’s mind and body, exposing the chilling cost of religious judgment. Set in a decaying industrial town, the film blends dread with raw emotion, centering queer protagonists whose love and vulnerability make the horror all the more devastating. Director Adrian Chiarella masterfully weaves supernatural dread with psychological torment, while Mia Wasikowska delivers a layered performance as Naim’s conflicted mother. More than just scares, Leviticus is a visceral exploration of internalized destruction—how external forces can shatter identity, desire, and sanity.
