Spoilers

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

Violence & Gore

  • A man get killed by a rope and large rock.
  • There is a very brutal murder. Towards the end, the head is covered, and a large rock is thrown on it. After it is removed, blood can be seen trickling out of the covering on the head. This could quite simply be one of the most brutal murders ever shown in film.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • A man is hanged. This is upsetting, but not nearly as much as the first death. The man and his family are show crying. A bucket is placed under the contraption to collect his body's fluids. Very disturbing.
