Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Paranormal Activity: The Ghost Dimension focuses primarily on standard horror tropes and supernatural scares, rather than emphasizing identity politics or forced diversity. Character casting and development are formulaic but not ideologically driven, so there's little evidence of narrative being sacrificed for modern social messaging.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The film maintains a pretty traditional horror setup, a nuclear family up against evil forces. Religion, traditional values, and masculinity are not mocked or subverted; instead, they're barely explored, maintaining the familiar territory for the genre without revisionist overtones.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There’s no obvious ideological monoculture here. The plot doesn’t dwell on political or social commentary. Dissenting viewpoints simply don’t factor in; the battle is classic good (the family) vs. evil (the supernatural), without caricatured depictions of alternative worldviews.
