Leviticus is a bold and haunting queer horror that follows two teenage boys whose first love turns deadly after a brutal conversion-therapy ritual leaves them stalked by a violent entity that takes the form of the person they desire most – each other. We recently sat down with Joe, Mia and Adrian to discuss how the universality of fear connects us, how our primal fear plays a role in unlearning things, how horror is a safe space for the queer community, and the significance of Naim and Ryan’s rings in the film. That and so much more, including how Titanic influenced a particular scene.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>More Popcorn:</strong></p><p><br></p><ul><li><a href=\"https://popcornpodcast.com/episodes/parker-finn-interview-smile-2?rq=horror\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Parker Finn interview - Smile 2</a></li><li><a href=\"https://popcornpodcast.com/episodes/philippou-interview-bring-her-back?rq=horror\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Fun with the Philippou brothers talking Bring Her Back horror and heart</a></li></ul>","author_name":"Leigh Livingstone and Tim Iffland"}
