The film centers on a group of American tourists in a survival horror scenario. There is no evidence of non-cisnormative identities or same-sex intimacy, adhering to the heteronormative tropes of the 1980s.

The narrative follows standard survival horror dynamics. While specific roles aren't detailed, the genre conventions suggest traditional hierarchies where female characters may occupy vulnerable or reactive positions.

A Caribbean setting and voodoo rituals introduce non-Western elements. However, the plot risks 'othering' local culture by framing it as a threat to the American protagonists.

Caribbean spirituality is used primarily as a plot device to drive horror. This approach depicts non-Western religious practices as dangerous rather than exploring their systemic complexity.

The film contains no evidence of characters with physical, sensory, or neurodivergent disabilities.
