Detailed Bias Analysis

Leans Progressive
Primary
The film leans left by critically examining authoritarian patriarchy, religious certainty, and the destructive legacy of violence and trauma, implicitly championing skepticism and the questioning of unquestioned authority.
Directed by a woman filmmaker who expanded a key female character's role, the movie critically examines traditional male authority and patriarchal family dynamics through its central figure, Abraham Van Helsing. The narrative explores themes of intergenerational trauma and psychological abuse stemming from his character. While there is some racial diversity in supporting cast, the primary family unit is white, and race is not a central thematic element.
Secondary
The film portrays Christian symbols and beliefs as effective and necessary tools against supernatural evil, aligning the narrative with a spiritual-moral framework where faith provides protection and motivation for heroic action. Abraham Van Helsing's mission is grounded in Christian-coded concepts of souls, good versus evil, and spiritual danger.
Based on available plot summaries, trailers, and early reviews, Abraham's Boys: A Dracula Story does not feature any explicitly LGBTQ+ characters, relationships, or themes. The film's focus is on a family horror drama centered around trauma and the supernatural, with no identified LGBTQ+ content or coding.
Based on available plot descriptions, reviews, and interviews, 'Abraham's Boys: A Dracula Story' does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters, community, or explicit themes of gender/sexual transformation. The narrative centers on the Van Helsing family's struggle with inherited trauma and monster hunting, without incorporating trans-related elements, thus resulting in no depiction.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
Based on available information, all major characters in "Abraham's Boys: A Dracula Story" maintain their established canonical gender from Bram Stoker's Dracula or Joe Hill's short story, with no instances of gender swapping identified.
Key characters from the source material, Abraham Van Helsing, Mina Van Helsing, and Arthur Holmwood, are portrayed by actors of the same race as their established canon. Other named characters appear to be original to this film.
