    Celluloid Verdict

    Reviewers have praised this queer horror debut for fusing a tender coming-of-age romance with a genuinely inventive monster concept rooted in conversion-therapy trauma, even as general audiences have responded more cautiously than critics to its bleaker turns.

    Celluloid editorial verdict

    Critics (92%) were notably more enthusiastic than audiences (82%).

    What is Leviticus about?

    A teenager relocates with his mother to a devoutly religious Australian town and falls for another boy in secret. When a jealous outburst exposes the relationship, the two are subjected to a conversion-therapy ritual meant to 'cure' them — instead it tears open something monstrous, a force that turns each boy's own desire into a threat aimed at the other.
