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

    How is Mary Shelley reactionary? Her parents were pretty radical, her dad was one of the first modern anarchists (although I believe their views softened with age)
