What We Think

“Rosemary’s Baby” (2014) is more old-school horror than 21st-century lecture. Its slight modern updates don’t overwhelm its narrative or themes, definitely not in the woke vanguard. It nods to the present, but doesn't dwell there.

Score Breakdown

Compromised:Narrative Integrity

Mildly Woke

What is this?

The 2014 “Rosemary’s Baby” miniseries keeps most narrative focus on psychological horror, much like the original. While it relocates the tale to Paris and features some modernized social dynamics, the storyline still revolves around character and suspense, not ideological messaging or forced representation.

Compromised:Cultural Foundations

Mildly Woke

What is this?

Religion, particularly Satanic ritual, plays a central role, but the show doesn’t devolve into mocking traditional values. At times, it subverts family and motherhood conventions, but it’s in service to horror, not a clear ideological statement. Not a parade of current-year lectures.

Compromised:Ideological Monoculture

Mildly Woke

What is this?

Diverse perspectives are present, with sinister and sympathetic characters across various backgrounds. There's little overt push of a singular, modern narrative, any updated commentary is subtle, not heavy-handed. Traditional perspectives aren't overtly villainized beyond genre-typical horror conventions.
