I Love How Mike Flangagan Uses Metaphors And Analogies In His Works - Tumblr Posts

Midnight Mass really went above and beyond to not only show true faith, but also true horror.

At the end of the day, the creature pruitt brought back wasn't the real monster at all. Bev Keane with her hypocritical idolatry, the mayor with his blind faith, Monsignor Pruitt with his selfish greed and one dimensional thoughts, even the other islanders' blind faith; those were the real monsters in the show

Just as true faith wasn't confined to the halls of a church, true horror wasn't the eildtrich monster at all

Excellent writing to juxtapose the horrors of fanaticism and religious propaganda against an actual monster; then using all these metaphors to show that faith is born from love and community

Truly the cherry on the top!
