nudity | 8/10 Suggested EM rating: PG-13 for crude humor and sexual references throughout, language and brief violence It's implied that Roy and the landlord slept together. He's in the bathroom throwing up. She's in bed smoking a cigarette. She then gives him the international sign for cunnilingus (spread fingers with a licking motion). In the R-rated cut, the landlady asks Roy to practice his tongue exercises for their next coupling. When Claudia grabs a beer out of the fridge, it is shown that the fridge is very cold inside and her nipples become visible. Claudia wears many outfits that expose her cleavage and at one point stands near a pin setter making her skirt fly up, revealing red panties. In a dream sequence based on the film INDECENT PROPOSAL, it is implied that Roy sells sex with Ismael to a wealthy homosexual for a million dollars. Roy is tossing loads of cash into the air, while Ishmael lies on the bed with an ice pack on his rear end. Roy and Claudia kiss pationately. |
violence | 5/10 Some hustled locals smash the back of Ernie's car and then grab Roy and take him inside the bowling alley. There they run his hand into the ball return and Roy screams. Later we see Roy with a prosthetic hand and/or hook, so it's implied that the locals ground his hand up. Roy is seen vomiting twice, once briefly off screen. Roy and Claudia get in a mild fight in a motel parking lot. All played for laughs. No blood whatsoever. Claudia gets hit by her boyfriend. [slightly offscreen] |
profanity | 5/10 20 "s" words, 9 hells, 4 "ass" words, 3 damns, 3 craps, 2 S.O.B.'s, 1 slang term each for female genitals and breasts (the "p" and "t" words respectively), and 2 uses of "God damn" and "Jesus," and 1 use of "Oh God" as exclamations. Also multiple uses of the word "whore" |
alcohol | 4/10 Roy is shown to be an alcoholic and a smoker. While trying to hustle another bowler, Roy says that Ishmael was sniffing glue out in the parking lot. Claudia is seen opening a wine bottle and drinking some wine. A man does a bong hit. Ishmael tries a cigarette for the first time and after that is shown smoking regularly. |
frightening | 1/10 Roy has several flashbacks of the landlady spreading her fingers and doing a licking motion. Actually pretty frightening. total: 23/50 pretty mild overall. a pretty light "R" rated film. |
