Leans Traditional
Primary
The film primarily focuses on supernatural horror, psychological decay, and the overwhelming power of malevolent forces, rather than explicitly promoting or critiquing any specific political ideology. While it touches on historical persecution, its narrative ultimately depicts a descent into pure evil without offering a political solution or advocating for a particular societal change.
The movie features a primarily traditional cast without explicit race or gender swaps of established roles. Its narrative focuses on supernatural horror and does not critically portray traditional identities or center on explicit DEI themes.
Secondary
The film portrays historical Puritanical Christianity as a source of extreme cruelty and oppression, directly leading to the persecution of innocent women and inadvertently unleashing the demonic forces that plague Salem. The narrative offers no significant counterbalancing positive portrayal.
The Lords of Salem does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The narrative focuses on supernatural horror, witchcraft, and the psychological torment of its protagonist, without incorporating elements related to queer identity or experiences.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
The Lords of Salem is an original film with characters created specifically for this production. There is no prior source material, historical record, or previous installment from which characters were adapted with a different gender.
The Lords of Salem is an original film with characters created specifically for this movie. There are no pre-existing source materials, historical figures, or prior adaptations from which characters' races could have been established and subsequently changed.
