Ganymede

A star wrestler's burgeoning gay desires arrive with terrifying side-effects in this acclaimed horror fable from co-directors Colby Holt and Sam Probst. When Lee (Jordan Doww) develops a crush on Kyle (Pablo Castelblanco), an openly gay classmate, he finds himself stalked by a grotesque creature that inhabits his closet. As the creature infects Lee's thoughts, he seeks Kyle's advice. His parents catch them in an intimate moment that puts their relationship on the rocks. Tensions rise as the boys' families butt heads over how to approach their children's growing attraction. Lee soon suffers escalating torment from the grotesque creature until he is finally able to confront his true feelings. Robin Lively and David Koechner co-star in this clever and skillfully mounted parable, which uses classic horror tropes to illustrate some essential truths about coming out in a conservative environment.
