Violence & Gore

  • Frequent strong gory comedic action violence throughout includes limb severings, decapitations, stabbings, slashings, bone breaks, shootings and a graphic depiction of a cheese grater.
  • Whole the violence for the first 1.5 hours is over the top, the last half hour contains extremely realistic and grounded scenes of violence which are very disturbing. And very bad for any younger viewers to watch.
  • Hammers and crowbars are used to break teeth and jaws, a cheese grater is dragged across people's skin, and a mechanical clamp severs a man's arm. There is also a scene where someone's leg gets chopped off, very disturbing to younger viewers.
  • A man has his head squashed by a huge clamp/vice. Extremely bloody and we see the carnage on screen. The man is seen twisting and breaking his arm before finally getting free which shows the arm gruesomely disparting and ripping. Then the man has his upper arm chopped off as well.
  • A extremely heavy constitution object is dropped on someones head, crushing a man's face fully on screen in a gory and graphic fashion.
  • A persons head gets cuts off with blood and gore shown.
  • A cheese grater is used to grate through flesh including ripping armpits, legs, faces, and hands. Way more graphic and pervasive than the cheese grater scene in evil dead rise with a lot more blood.
  • A young man fights many armed guards using kicks, punches, knives, and guns: we see limbs snapping, necks breaking, people are stabbed and shot with blood spurting and gushing, and the young man uses one person as a shield and we see bloody gunshot wounds.
  • A young man fights an armed man that uses a hammer: the young man gets the hammer and uses it to break the man's jaw (we see it dangling loose and very bloody and we hear a crunch), the man's arm becomes caught in a door and he pulls it off (we see the bloody severed arm with tissue and bone exposed), and the young man cuts the man's leg off (we see the bloody severed limb with tissue and bone exposed)
  • A young man fights many people in a kitchen using utensils and frying pans: we see people with deep bloody wounds caused by a box grater on their faces and under their arms, others are struck with a heavy skillet and others are stabbed with knives.
  • A young man holds a man by the throat as he is approached by several armed guards; the young man is struck in the back by another guard and they fight with punches and kicks and the guard swings an ax and a hammer at him until he is struck in the groin and pushed over a balcony (he lands on a table that splinters under him and he is dazed).
  • A young man fights with many armed guards in an extended sequence while the young man has a flashback to family members and friends being murdered. A man breaks a guard's arm and we see it snap revealing blood and bone. Many armed guards approach a young man and a young woman and open fire on them, they dodge bullets, use guards as shields and shoot guns that they pick up (we see a lot of blood splatter and spraying)
  • Many people carrying swords and other weapons and wearing masks dance around other people that we understand are being held prisoner and are being televised and their torment is being used for entertainment; we see the people being beaten repeatedly with oars, a few are stabbed with swords (we see blood)
  • One person is struck with a grappling hook, and they are zapped with electronic shock collars if they try to run away; a man's face is torn apart by a weapon lodged in his mouth (we see blood and matter)
  • A man swings a sledgehammer striking several people, a man in the control room vomits while watching the mayhem (we see goo), a person's feet are hacked off (we see a severed bloody foot), a gun is placed in a man's mouth, a man with a gun opens fire and shoots several people (blood sprays), a man fights another man using a stage carrot and stabs him in the neck (we see blood), and punches the man in the face with a weapon on his hand (part brass knuckles and part gun).
  • Someone is shot (blood spurts) causing the other people to yell and push against police in riot gear; a man in the crowd runs toward the person with the gun and his arm is cut off by a guard (we see the bloody severed limb) and he falls screaming while many people are shot and fall dead (blood spurts and sprays and we later see pools of blood).

Profanity

  • 55 uses of "fuck", 20 uses of "shit" and 1 use of "cunt".

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

  • Occasional use of hallucinogens throughout by a young boy and his mentor.
  • Alcohol is consumed and cigarettes are smoked.
  • People are vaping presumably cocaine in a electronic inhaler.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • The film had a moderate comedic intensity throughout until the last half hour where it jumps to severe. The film's climax is very dark and shocking.
  • The entire film is extremely violent and bloody with some incredibly graphic death scenes and kills. This is all handled in a comedic, over the top, cartoony and borderline surrealist way, but it is not for the squeamish.
  • Child torture/murder shown on screen, graphic violence including stabbings, depactations, limbs breaking, improvised weapons such as sharp hooks and claws, nailed hammered, cheese grater, axes, swords, glass, and more disturbing content involving mass murder, suicide, torture, mutilation, gore, and much more throughout.

Spoilers

The Parents Guide items below may give away important plot points.

Violence & Gore

  • A child has hot pokers stuck in his ears, his tongue cut out, and is hung from a rope.
  • The entire extended Culling sequence is designed to be as violent and over the top as possible. In the mostdisturbing scene, a person has two hooks attatched to either side of his mouth and has his head literally split in two. The actual death/beheading happens offscreen.
  • A graphic fight scene happens where a bracelet with a spike gets worn on a man's knuckles. The spiked bracelet is seen tearing through flesh, slitting someone's wrist and leg and more. There is also beating, and biting along with a small sharp blade that is seen stabbing and cutting people. Extremely bloody, brutal, and graphic.
  • The man slams his head against the helmet the young woman is wearing until the visor shatters, a shard of glass cuts into his forehead (we see it under a flap of bloody skin) and he uses the shard to stab the young woman in the abdomen several times (we see blood) and then slashes her on the throat.
  • A young man and a man fight and the young man uses a curved claw as a weapon and cuts the man's Achilles tendon (in closeup, and we see blood and tissue).
  • The young man continues to slash the man several more times and then slams him against the floor and walls, the man uses the claw to slice a long cut on the young man's leg and then his arm (we see the bloody cut) before the man is slashed on the throat with the claw and blood spurts as the man dies.
  • A young boy is forced to hold a gun and shoot at people huddling on their knees and pleading (we see bloody bodies on the ground later); the boy shoots the gun erratically causing a distraction and runs away to a jungle where a man finds him and starts choking him.
  • A woman is tied into a chair and a camera slams into her face (we see shattered glass and blood on her face) and she falls from a boom raised off the floor.
  • A young woman raises an axe toward a young man and turns to hit a woman in the head (we see blood and we see the point of the weapon embedded in her skull). A young man and a young woman fight in several extended scenes with punches, kicks, throws and the young woman uses an axe several times.
  • A man places a hot poker in a young boy's ear (deafening him) and cuts out his tongue (we see the tongue held and cut with blood visible).
