What We Think

'The Dinner Party' keeps woke elements minimal, prioritizing genre storytelling over ideological messaging. Any nods to diversity or subversion seem to serve its unsettling horror narrative rather than make a political statement.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

'The Dinner Party' focuses on horror and suspense, emphasizing character dynamics and tension rather than identity politics. There’s little evidence of forced representation or narrative contortion to push ideological themes. Any diverse character elements seem incidental and not central to the story.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

While the film portrays some traditional values, like family and ambition, through a dark lens, it doesn’t go out of its way to undermine religion, family, or masculinity. Instead, it uses horror tropes, focusing more on psychological and supernatural elements than ideological subversion.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There’s no apparent agenda or heavy-handed messaging in this film. Characters span a range of backgrounds, motives, and flaws, without making dissenting perspectives a caricature. The plot remains focused on suspense rather than pushing a singular worldview.
