Hostel, Turistas: The would outside America is a depraved hellhole full of sadistic criminals
The Green Inferno, The Ruins: Indigenous people are unreasoning bloodthirsty savages
The Wicker Man*, Midsommar: Pagan religions are barbaric cults of human sacrifice (this one has been used to justify imperialist wars as far back as ancient Rome)
Drag Me To Hell: It's about a literal fucking gypsy curse
*The original. The remake is reactionary for its cartoonish misogyny

I always kinda root for the elder cosmic monstrosities in Lovecraft stories- "You know what, Cthulhu, do step on these racist WASP assholes and their entire civilisation"
All of humanity in Lovecraft are descendants of an alien slave race, which is kinda of a cool, weird subversion of the racial superiority humans feel against each other and animals. That's right, I'm saying it: Lovecraft was woke, actually.
This was from At the Mountains of Madness, right? Insofar as there's a canon.
Yeah. I think he might have continued it in some of his later works he co-wrote like Curse Of Yig, but my memory's hazy on that.
I assume you're talking about Christian and Maja? I haven't really ever considered that as rape as he was literally sat down in a room, told about it, and willingly went along with it. But yeah, you're right. He was drugged and couldn't properly give consent.
Also when the drugs wore off he did seem really horrified by it, but that's when everything went to shit for him anyway.
