Our VerdictNot Woke

Deadstream2022

In a free society the right to critique art is essential and protected speech. These reviews reflect personal opinions and not statements of fact.

What We Think

Deadstream is refreshingly non-woke. It’s more interested in poking fun at internet fame and horror clichés than serving up ideological messaging. A nice break if you want something that’s just plain irreverent fun.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Deadstream generally keeps its focus on a single, flawed male protagonist and leans heavily into comedic horror, rather than identity-driven storytelling. There is little evidence of forced representation or characters being defined by identity politics instead of their narrative role.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The film parodies internet culture and influencer narcissism but doesn’t take explicit shots at religion, family, masculinity, or traditional values. The gender roles are mostly played for laughs, not as a platform for ideological messaging.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

No clear ideological monoculture here, critiques are aimed at influencer culture rather than pushing modern moral assumptions. There’s no heavy-handed derision of dissenting viewpoints, and alternative or traditional perspectives aren’t particularly mocked.
