Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Silent Hill 2: Restless Dreams focuses on deeply personal horror and psychological themes. Characters are developed based on their traumas and actions rather than modern identity politics or forced representation. There is little evidence of narrative being sacrificed for ideology.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The film largely avoids subverting traditional family or religious values. Instead, it delves into the psychological struggles of the protagonist without overt commentary on masculinity or cultural revisionism. It seems more interested in timeless existential questions than any modern ideological project.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Alternative moral perspectives appear naturally through the story's dark themes, and the film does not overtly mock or villainize traditional viewpoints. Most characters are depicted with depth, flaws, and internal conflict, far from a one-note ideological message.
