What We Think

A shockingly non-woke Western in an age dominated by agenda-driven films. Terror on the Prairie lets its story and characters take the reins, no forced representation, no mocking tradition, just straight-up frontier grit. Will it ever make it in Hollywood? Who knows, but it's a welcome change.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Terror on the Prairie gives us traditional storytelling, focusing on character and survival rather than checking diversity boxes. Casting choices serve the frontier setting without shoehorning in identity politics, so the narrative feels true to its setting and genre.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

The film respects Western and family values, depicting religion, masculinity, and motherhood with seriousness and respect. Traditional roles aren't mocked or undermined; if anything, they're celebrated without apology. No overt attempts at rewriting history for modern sensibilities here.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Terror on the Prairie doesn't go out of its way to villainize traditional perspectives. In our view, it provides a rare space where non-woke voices exist unchallenged, though it arguably doesn't include much ideological debate, mainstream moralizing is notably absent.
