Pledge functions mainly as a genre-driven survival thriller. The narrative focuses on the physical tension of fraternity rituals and the rush to join the fraternity, rather than exploring identity politics or cultural subversion. The film does not clearly represent diverse identities or cultural backgrounds. It follows traditional clichés associated with collegiate horror, emphasizing institutional loyalty and groupthink without disrupting the status quo. Without specific details on the cast composition or character's ability to drive the story, the film examines social pressures within a narrow, potentially homogeneous social structure.
