What We Think

Night Teeth is somewhat woke by modern standards, featuring a diverse cast for diversity’s sake and a lack of traditional themes, but it doesn’t aggressively push ideology or attack non-woke values. It’s more preoccupied with its aesthetic than with lecturing the audience.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Woke

What is this?

While "Night Teeth" offers a somewhat diverse cast, it doesn't push identity politics to the forefront. The narrative mostly sticks to vampire thriller tropes rather than making statements about race, gender, or sexuality, but there are a few moments where casting choices feel like checking boxes rather than enhancing the story.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Woke

What is this?

The film doesn't directly mock or subvert traditional values, but it also doesn't celebrate them. Family and morality are mostly absent, as the movie stays laser-focused on style and action without much regard for traditional cultural or moral touchstones. Nothing aggressive, but nothing rooted either.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Woke

What is this?

Traditional viewpoints aren't villainized, but the film plays it safe with a very neutral, modern moral stance across all its characters. There are no strong voices for alternative, older, or non-mainstream perspectives, leading to a somewhat sanitized, one-note worldview.
