Detailed Bias Analysis

Analyzing...
Leans Traditional

Primary

The film's central conflict and themes are rooted in gothic horror conventions, focusing on supernatural evil, inherited curses, and madness rather than socio-political issues. It does not explicitly promote or critique specific political ideologies, leading to a neutral rating.

The film features a traditional 1960s cast without explicit diversity initiatives. Its gothic horror narrative focuses on themes of inherited evil and possession, and does not engage with or critique traditional identities or DEI themes.

Secondary

The film depicts villagers, implicitly Christian, engaging in mob violence and superstition against Joseph Curwen, portraying their actions as misguided, cruel, and destructive. The narrative offers no counterbalancing positive portrayal of the faith.

Roger Corman's 'The Haunted Palace' is a gothic horror film centered on a man possessed by his warlock ancestor. The narrative does not include any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters, relationships, or themes, focusing instead on supernatural dread and inherited madness.

The film 'The Haunted Palace' (1963) does not feature any identifiable transsexual characters or themes. Its narrative focuses on supernatural horror, ancestral curses, and possession, with no elements related to gender identity or transition.

The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.

The film adapts H.P. Lovecraft's "The Case of Charles Dexter Ward" and elements from Poe. While it introduces new characters and alters plot points, no established character from the source material is portrayed with a different gender in the film.

The film adapts H.P. Lovecraft's "The Case of Charles Dexter Ward," whose characters are implicitly or explicitly white. The 1963 movie cast white actors in all major roles, consistent with the source material's racial context. No character established as one race was portrayed as a different race.
