This film is produced by Samantha Jennings, Kristina Ceyton, and Hannah Ngo.
Most teenagers learn from a clumsy first makeout or a nervous confession of a harbored crush that being vulnerable with your desires can be terrifying. It's even more fear-inducing when your own desire feels like the very thing that is trying to destroy you. Adrian Chiarella's Leviticus is a powerhouse directorial debut that's part romance, part horror movie... in other words, it's a viscerally authentic coming of age story.
Two teenage boys must escape a violent entity that takes the form of the person they desire most – each other.
Reviews
"With Leviticus, Chiarella wields horror in defense of queer love, avoiding easy sentimentalism, while also not surrendering to hopelessness, all while still satisfying the audience’s cravings for effective, bone-chilling uneasiness. Time will do its thing, but Leviticus does seem bound to earn a place in the pantheon of notable queer horror." – Variety
