negative slant

Hello Forum,

I'd like to know the meaning of this phrase "negative slant" as used in this sentence, "If an evil main character wins out over some force of nature, then the story theme will have a negative slant."

Does this mean that it is not necessarily for the good guys to win at the end, but that the bad guys can also win at the end?
Hello Nick. Well, it could mean that. Or it might just mean that the story will be a bit dark and depressing. Or evil. It's a bit difficult to be sure, really.

Sure. In stories as in real life, the bad guys sometimes win. 👁 Frown :(
