What We Think

The Nun II is a refreshingly non-woke entry in modern horror, sticking to spine-chilling supernatural scares without indulging in the usual Hollywood identity checklists. Tradition and faith are front and center, with story and atmosphere given priority over social commentary.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The Nun II sticks largely to its supernatural horror roots, relying on established characters and narrative rather than shoehorning in identity-based elements. The characters’ backgrounds serve the plot instead of dominating it. Debates about forced representation or unrealistic characterization are virtually absent.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Catholic themes and traditional religious imagery remain central, with the film drawing on classic horror motifs rather than undermining them. There’s no noticeable attempt to subvert traditional gender or religious values, the faith, if anything, is taken seriously as a defense against evil.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

The film doesn’t spend time preaching modern ideological points or mocking traditional worldviews. Characters are archetypal for the genre, and the setting is period-appropriate. Pluralistic debates or political points are pretty much nonexistent.
