Midnight Mass(2021)

This series is suggested for ages 18+ and may contain violence or horror elements, dark supernatural themes. Biblical themes explored include {"reference":"2 Corinthians 11:14","theme":"Satan disguising as an angel of light","description":"The 'angel' that Father Paul brings to the island — a creature of genuine supernatural power that produces apparent miracles — enacts Paul's warning: the adversary disguises himself as an angel of light. The miracles are real; the source is not what it claims."}, {"reference":"Matthew 24:24","theme":"False signs and wonders","description":"Jesus's warning that false Christs and false prophets will produce signs and wonders sufficient to deceive even the elect describes the show's situation: the healings are real, the resurrections are real, the miraculous signs are real — and they are still deceptive."}, {"reference":"John 10:10","theme":"The thief who comes to steal and destroy","description":"The entity's ultimate purpose — not healing but vampiric transformation, not life but a parody of resurrection that requires death and blood-drinking — enacts the thief's program: the apparent giver of life is actually the one who comes to steal, kill, and destroy."}, {"reference":"Acts 17:11","theme":"Examining the scriptures","description":"The show's tragedy is the absence of the Berean disposition: Father Paul never examines whether the entity's gifts are consistent with the God of scripture. The Bereans were more noble because they received the message but examined the scriptures daily to see whether these things were so."}.
