Looks That Kill

A teenager navigates the absurd and often heartbreaking fallout of a supernatural flaw: his attractiveness is literally deadly. What starts as a bizarre curse that makes strangers swoon and faint escalates into social isolation, media spectacle, and awkward attempts to live a normal life while hiding the danger he unknowingly poses to others.

Everything changes when he meets a girl born with a congenital defect who isn’t affected by his lethal charm, and their unexpected connection forces both of them to confront judgment, vulnerability, and the meaning of intimacy. Equal parts dark comedy and tender coming-of-age drama, the film blends outrageous situations with genuine emotional stakes as the pair search for acceptance and a way to be together without hurting the world around them.
