While the film nods to contemporary identity themes, the central story sticks to classic horror tropes. There isn’t a heavy-handed focus on identity over plot or character development; most roles serve their narrative purpose without glaring tokenism. Some moments of representation may feel obligatory, but they don't derail the storyline.

Christianity and traditional family motifs are present and treated mostly as serious, if troubled, pillars in the story. There's some modern reinterpretation, but the underlying tone respects the supernatural and religious stakes without outright mocking faith, masculinity, or traditional values. There’s a dash of cynicism at moments, but nothing egregious.

Most viewpoints are represented fairly straight, with no major effort to villainize traditionalist or dissenting characters. The film doesn’t indulge in much culture-war caricature. Alternative worldviews are present, and the film avoids the uniform messaging seen in more aggressively woke fare.
