Why the scores diverge

  • The 10-point gap reflects how much ideology steers each story on our six-dimension pass, not just vibes.
  • Resident Evil highlight: The dialogue primarily serves the horror and survival narrative with minimal overt ideological messaging.
  • Hereditary highlight: Dialogue in Hereditary is primarily naturalistic and serves to build tension and character depth rather than deliver overt ideological messages.
  • Resident Evil: Characters appear to be motivated by survival and plot needs rather than symbolic representation or tokenism.
  • Hereditary: Characters feel fully integrated into the story with complex motivations and psychological realism, avoiding tokenistic or symbolic roles.

Hereditary reads higher on anti-traditional framing than Resident Evil, which nudges the overall profile message-forward.
