Violence & Gore

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • Naru's wrists are bound shortly before the first attack on her people. She watches helplessly as three of the men are slaughtered just feet away. One is impaled in the chest and eye. Another has his arm cut off and screams in agony. This is extremely disturbing and is followed by his midsection being sliced open and his head cut off.
