Center
Primary
The film is a horror-thriller centered on interpersonal trust, infidelity, and the violation of privacy, without explicitly promoting or critiquing any specific political ideology or offering a political solution. Its core conflict is largely apolitical, focusing on human nature and the consequences of personal failings within a horror framework.
The film features a cast with visible diversity, including an Iranian-American actress in a prominent role, though this casting does not involve explicit race or gender swaps of traditionally white characters. The narrative explores the moral failings of its characters, including white males, but these are depicted as individual flaws rather than an explicit critique of traditional identities or a central DEI theme.
Secondary
