He was so blinded by his guilt that he brought this menacing creature that he figured could fix their relationship by giving them eternal life. Really, it wasn’t until they reconciled while realizing it was wrong that John was able to have peace with his actions, even if he still regrets not being there all the years before. It’s a human need to seek forgiveness, and refusing to forgive is clearly shown as a hindrance to the character’s personal growth. When it comes to the horror genre, religious subject matter, biblical imagery, and the thought-provoking details that can come with it have always fit quite well together. And, as Flanagan pointed out, the connection between religion and the gruesome and terrifying is not at all difficult to find. This is NOT a horror. It is an extremely intelligent religious drama that contains some horror elements. And you know what? It is MAGNIFICENT at what it does.

Series creator Mike Flanagan described Midnight Mass as a passion project, one that was "deeply personal" and dealt intimately with Flanagan's upbringing in the Catholic Church, and his eventual sobriety and atheism. [9] He conceived the idea first as a novel, then as a film script, then as a television series that he unsuccessfully pitched to various production companies (including its eventual distributor Netflix) in 2014. Flanagan and Kate Siegel then adapted Midnight Mass as a story within a story in their 2016 film Hush, in which Midnight Mass is presented as the most popular book by Siegel's character, Maddie Young, with Flanagan then planting the Hush prop book bearing the Midnight Mass title as an Easter egg in his 2017 film Gerald's Game, as a means of "keeping the idea alive over the years". [10] Prior to the series' production, Flanagan created the critically acclaimed horror series The Haunting of Hill House for Netflix, which released in 2018, as well as its 2020 follow-up The Haunting of Bly Manor.

The religious themes in this story could have been handled very simply, but Flanagan never wants to give us the easy answer. I've never seen a story dive so deeply into the complexities of personal faith and organised religion to the extent or with the tact that this one does. What remains, she says, is something deeper and more profound: “The quiet understanding of someone who’s actually seen who you are.” Gemmill, Allie (February 5, 2020).

Kohli's character has received praise from Muslim viewers, many citing him as a rare example of positive, accurate Muslim representation. The scene where he argues about religious texts in public schools has also been praised as an accurate reading of a Muslim perspective on Jesus. [32] [33] Kohli said in Michael Rosenbaum's podcast Inside of You that the role was his most difficult. Kohli is "not Muslim, not American, not a dad, and not forty," and thus had a hard time in the role. [34] Accolades [ edit ] Year Roeper, Richard (September 22, 2021).

There is a requirement for deep listening, and attention,” Annabeth Gish said of the series. “I think there’s a real availability for understanding about what’s happening in our world right now. It’s very timely. So, I hope that people receive that. I think there’s something very special about this project.”
Midnight Mass was released on Netflix on September 24, 2021. [2] Reception [ edit ] Critical response [ edit ] Hamish Linklater received widespread acclaim for his performance as Father Paul. One of my first conversations with Mike was, ‘I’m playing a priest in this genre. I just want to make sure you don’t want me to be skewed, or sinister, or scary, or anything like that,'” Linklater said. “The guy is trying to do the right thing all the way through it, as far as his understanding of what the right thing is.” When it comes to seeing a priest in a horror story, the common audience expectation is that he is the villain. It’s a common trope in horror. Flanagan chose a different road. We have an official poster for the upcoming Netflix horror series, Midnight Mass, from the creative mind behind The Haunting anthology as well.Unlike Flanagan’s Haunting series on Netflix, Midnight Mass isn’t embedded in the ghost story aesthetics the writer-director is known for. There is a different sort of insidious nature to the threats here. Wherever faith and religion are, fundamentalism and fanaticism are not far behind.
