Analyzing...
Leans Traditional
Primary
The film's genre as a supernatural haunted house horror and its focus on apolitical themes of fear and survival against a malevolent entity prevent it from aligning with any specific political ideology.
The film features a predominantly traditional cast without explicit DEI-driven recasting. Its narrative focuses on horror elements and does not include explicit critiques of traditional identities or central DEI themes.
Secondary
The film portrays a priest's past actions, including suicide and involvement in a mass murder, as the direct cause of the house's curse. This positions a representative of the religion as the origin of the horror, rather than a force against it, suggesting a problematic aspect within the religious context.
The film 'The Amityville Curse' does not feature any discernible LGBTQ+ characters or themes within its plot or character development. Consequently, there is no specific portrayal to evaluate against the provided rubric, resulting in an N/A rating.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
The film adapts Hans Holzer's novel of the same name. A review of the main characters in the film and their counterparts in the source novel reveals no instances where a character's established gender was changed.
The film's characters align with the implied racial depictions from the source novel and prior Amityville lore, with no instances of a character established as one race being portrayed as another.
