Watchable but Very Slow and Not Really Horror
Nothing really woke. The cast is almost all women but it makes sense within the story why the men are all gone. The acting is good and the cinematography is excellent with some wonderful shots. Unfortunately that's about all it has going for it. While it does an excellent job of showing the hard life of the period living in the dust bowl it does so at a such a dull slow pace. It's another case of mis-marketing it as horror when it's not at all. There's some attempts at jump scares that don't even work and they shoot a lot of the scenes in such a way with angels and ominous music to seem like it should be horror but what's happening in the scene doesn't match what they are trying to convey. There's also a lot of characters thinking they see something moving or hear something but nothing ever happens.

Minor wokeness
The casting seems to be somewhat DEI. Check that out for yourself. The bits of wokeness I detected would be the environmental alarmist based rising sea levels. There's a scene where the Golden Gate bridge is under water. Also, the idea that predators can coexist with their natural food supply is a Bambi kind of wokeness. I was hoping for some of the clever humor that Dreamworks is notable for. There's really not much there.

An Actual Decent Kevin Smith Movie??
Nothing woke. A bit different from modern Kevin smith movies. More like his earlier ones actually though a bit tamer in content. Not as funny as some but I actually liked it better than I thought I would. It's a lighter toned down version of Smith and it actually works rather well. I would say if you liked early Smith than give this one a shot.

Worst Main Character Ever
Lead female character is the typical modern feminist while every single male character around her is a pathetic cowardly beta. This might be the most unlikable, rude, arrogant, nasty, aggressive character ever. By the 20 minute mark I hated her so much I was hoping she would just die horribly. That's not what you want for your main character when you want people to root for her to survive. Then there is the now common awful writing. Why would her father leave her in charge of the restaurant when he clearly knows w3hat an unhinged idiot loser she is. But then again he's not too bright either. Why would you leave your dinner open all night with 2 employees 'just in case someone comes in'? The operating cost and employee salaries means you are losing money every single night. Then the sheriff shows up in the middle on the night and finds out the kids terrorizer her are probably the same psychotic killers from a horrible murder earlier in the night. So what does he do? Call it in immediately for backup and locks the building down until help gets there? Hell no not this moron, he jumps up making a scene, grabs her and drags her outside in the wide open then stops halfway to the car and stands there exposed so he can explain it too her. What idiot got paid to write this stupidity.
