Mike Flanagan's Midnight Mass is a slow-burning, supernatural horror that's inescapably fascinating, but often feels too protracted since it details matters of religion, grief, and existential dread at so great a length. Perhaps those deep philosophical undertones might have worked better over the course of a feature-length film, where the tension could build more steadily. A film would have tightened its pacing, hence the powerful themes and shocking twists fall with greater emotional weight, along with keeping on the edge from start to end.
