Detailed Bias Analysis

Center
Primary
The film leans left by exploring themes of female sexual agency and critiquing societal and religious hypocrisy, aligning with progressive values despite its focus on individual psychological drama rather than explicit political solutions.
The movie features traditional casting without explicit DEI-driven race or gender swaps. Its narrative explores themes of sexuality and societal hypocrisy through individual character portrayals, rather than framing a critique of traditional identities within a DEI context.
Secondary
The film portrays Christianity primarily through Reverend Peter Shayne, a deeply disturbed, sexually repressed, and violent minister. His actions and beliefs are presented as hypocritical and pathological, using his religious authority to justify his perverse obsessions and violence. The narrative offers no significant counterbalancing positive portrayal, instead using Shayne to critique the dangers of religious repression and hypocrisy.
