Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

Trilogy of Terror is a product of the mid-1970s and focuses on suspenseful storytelling over ideology. Identity politics or overt 'forced representation' are essentially absent. The film relies on Karen Black’s performance in various roles, emphasizing acting skill over any modern diversity checklist.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional cultural foundations remain intact. Family, religion, and traditional gender roles aren't subverted or mocked. There’s no preachy tone about masculinity or morality, just good old-fashioned horror with flawed but believable characters.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

There is very little to suggest an ideological monoculture. Characters reflect the norms and anxieties of their time without shoehorning in modern moral assumptions. No overt villainization of traditional viewpoints to be found.
