In a free society the right to critique art is essential and protected speech. These reviews reflect personal opinions and not statements of fact.

What We Think

A solid example of non-woke cinema, 'The Brides of Dracula' is way more interested in gothic chills than anyone’s identity politics. Hammer did horror, not lectures.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The film focuses on gothic horror atmosphere and traditional storytelling. Character traits like race or gender aren't forced into the spotlight, and casting choices fit the narrative, not ideology.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Classic motifs of good versus evil, family, and religious symbolism are treated respectfully. Traditional mores, faith, and masculinity are central, presented as strengths instead of flaws.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There’s no clear message pushing a modern ideological agenda. Characters reflect traditional roles and worldviews, without satirizing or vilifying dissenters. It’s basically a time capsule of non-woke storytelling.
