Center
Primary
The film's central conflict, a sexually transmitted supernatural curse, serves as a metaphor for universal anxieties and inescapable consequences rather than promoting a specific political ideology. Its narrative focuses on survival and dread, remaining apolitical in its exploration of these themes.
The movie features a cast that includes visible diversity without explicitly recasting traditionally white roles. Its narrative focuses on a horror premise and does not present a critical portrayal of traditional identities or incorporate explicit DEI themes as central to its story.
Secondary
It Follows does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The story focuses exclusively on heterosexual relationships and the horror elements stemming from a sexually transmitted entity, thus offering no representation for evaluation.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
It Follows is an original film with no pre-existing source material, historical figures, or legacy characters. All characters were created for this film, thus no character's gender was changed from a prior established canon.
It Follows is an original film with characters created specifically for this production. There is no prior source material, historical record, or previous installment to establish a canonical race for any character. Therefore, no race swaps occurred.
