Just finished watching Guillermo del Toro's #Frankenstein on Netflix. I liked it, but, honestly, I don't know why Victor's tale is so different from Shelley's novel. I also found the Beauty & the Beast bit unnecessary. Jacob Elordi's performance is brilliant, he embodies purity.

Rafael Nicolás, Angels Before Man
A queer retelling of Satan's fall.
In an eternal paradise,Lucifer struggles with shame, identity, & timidity, with little more than the desire to worship his creator. It isn't until Michael comes into his life that Lucifer learns to love himself.
