Return to Horror Hotel primarily serves as a stylistic anthology that blends comedy and science fiction. It focuses more on genre-bending humor and anomalies rather than intentionally addressing multi-layered themes or disrupting social hierarchies. The film relies on traditional clichés, such as a charm that alters female beauty standards, reinforcing conventional beauty ideals. This focus on aesthetic archetypes limits the depth of its gender and identity representation. While the anthology format and historical settings like WWII provide a framework for diverse casting, the lack of specific evidence regarding race or LGBTQ+ identities results in a lower diversity profile.
