What We Think

Wishmaster 2: Evil Never Dies is almost refreshingly non-woke. It steers clear of modern ideological trends, offers straightforward horror thrills, and doesn't let identity politics slither into the script. Classic guilty-pleasure stuff.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Not Woke

What is this?

The film is a late-90s supernatural horror sequel, not exactly a forum for identity politics. Characters are defined by classic horror tropes rather than modern social concerns, and casting appears standard for its era. There’s no visible emphasis on ideology over character or story.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Not Woke

What is this?

Traditional cultural themes are largely ignored, with the film instead focusing on demonic action and supernatural mayhem. There’s minimal to no subversion of religion, family, masculinity, or traditional morality, just typical horror fare and supernatural evil.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Not Woke

What is this?

Viewers will find no evident woke ideology or homogeneity here. There’s no real effort to villainize dissenting worldviews or hammer home modern ideological lessons, just a classic good versus evil setting with standard horror movie morality.
