Leviticus

Maybe it's because I went into the film with very high expectations. Also, Naim and Ryan... what are you guys doing? Seriously. You keep falling into the same trap again and again. Death is literally dancing over your heads, and you're still busy making out. The film is a horror mystery, but I actually liked that it doesn't follow the usual horror template. Instead of relying on cheap scares, it taps into the fear of the unknown, and that's easily the most interesting thing about it. The story revolves around two people of the same gender being in love, something the people here consider a sin. Because of that, a ritual is performed to make sure they never repeat that "mistake" and stay away from each other. Fear becomes the tool used to control people and stop them from doing something again. I think that's what Leviticus was trying to explore. I'm saying this because Naim's mother already knew what could happen to him. The problem is, I watched this movie hoping to be scared. Instead, I ended up feeling sorry for the entity. Overall, it just wasn't my kind of horror.
