Primary
The film is a horror-comedy centered on slapstick humor and parodying classic monster tropes. Its core subject matter and narrative resolution are entirely apolitical, offering no discernible political commentary or ideological stance.
This classic horror-comedy from the 1950s features a cast and narrative that align with the traditional norms of its era. There is no explicit or implicit focus on diversity, equity, or inclusion themes within its character representation or storyline.
Secondary
This film, a horror-comedy from 1953, does not feature any discernible LGBTQ+ characters or themes. Its plot revolves around the comedic antics of the main duo encountering classic horror elements, with no narrative space dedicated to queer identity or experiences.
