Deliver Us from Evil2014

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

Deliver Us from Evil is refreshingly non-woke by modern standards. It sticks to traditional storytelling, respects faith and masculinity, and avoids ideological preaching. For those tired of Hollywood box-ticking, this one is more old-school than agenda-driven.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Deliver Us from Evil focuses on traditional horror storytelling, with identity factors in the background, if present at all. Characters are built on personality and skill rather than checking diversity boxes. There’s no clear case of forced representation or characters made flawless due to identity politics.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The film actually reinforces religious and masculine themes, Catholicism, exorcism, family duty, and male-led heroics are at the forefront. There’s no overt attempt to revise traditions or undermine cultural foundations; if anything, it leans into classic tropes.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

While the film portrays evil and good in standard horror fashion, it doesn’t mock or villainize traditional views. Faith and skepticism have a place, and no worldview is overly caricatured. It’s far from an ideological echo chamber, there’s healthy tension.
