Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Lost Souls is a straightforward supernatural thriller that sticks to genre conventions. It doesn't engage in forced representation or focus excessively on identity over character development. The leads are selected for merit within the story's context, and no character receives the flawless treatment commonly seen in more recent 'woke' media.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The film doesn't subvert traditional notions of the family, religion, or masculinity, on the contrary, it centers on Catholic tradition and religious prophecy. While spiritual struggle is a theme, it doesn't undermine cultural foundations but rather treats them with a degree of seriousness.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There is little to no focus on ideological debates. The viewpoints are consistent with classic religious horror films, offering no overt ideological messaging, and the film refrains from mocking traditional or dissenting perspectives.
