A close-up of one of the stripper's ass is shown (she is wearing a thong). Starlene wears a pair of short hot pants and a top for almost the whole movie. Another woman is seen wearing the same types of clothes. Some sexual references throughout. |
| violence | The movie is about a couple on the run from the law, so there is some violence. Several characters are killed onscreen by guns, knives and needles. A man punches and kicks another man. A man punches a woman. Two men fight. Some people are threatened with guns. A man breaks another man's finger. A man repeatedly slams another man's head on a car's dashboard (we see his bloody face), then shoots him in the head (offscreen). A man gets his hand stuck to a table via a knife, then a man sticks a fork in his throat (he lives through this). We see some blood. A woman shoots two men onscreen. One of them is badly injured and very bloody. He dies quickly. A man shoots a woman in the head offscreen. A woman shoots a man who accidentally shoots another man (onscreen and bloody). A man is shot in the head onscreen. Some kids find the body. A man gets a lethal dose of Amphetamine in the throat, killing him within seconds (we see him shaking and writhing in pain onscreen). Several characters are killed by gunshot wounds either on impact, or within minutes all onscreen. A girl is shot multiple times offscreen. We don't see her body. We see blood spattered on the wall. A man talks about a man being executed via electric chair in a prison. A man gets a large tattoo on his head, afterwards two men proceed to torture him with the needle, and some blood is seen. |
| profanity | "Fuck" and its derivatives are heard numerous times, as well as "Shit". Other instances of strong language include "Bitch", "Cunt", "Ass", "Bastard", "Hell", "Christ". Some crude sexual references. One raising of middle finger. |
| alcohol | Cigarette smoking is sometimes pictured, and there is plenty of drug use. A woman's father abused LSD, and the narrator describes his trip on LSD, which caused him to hurt himself. A man and two thugs are addicted to speed, and they use it onscreen several times. A man snorts speed onscreen, and goes crazy. A man gets a lethal shot of amphetamine in the neck, causing him to overdose and die. A man injects himself with a substance. A man and a woman smoke a marijuana joint. A man jokes about a teenager being on marijuana. A girl is said to be on heroin and acts very intoxicated. A woman and a man take an unspecified substance together. |
| frightening | Many characters are seen writhing in pain before they die. The scene with Starlene's father may be sad (he uses a device to speak and his legs do not function anymore). There are two brief torture scenes, and one of them is rather upsetting. Rated R for: Strong Language, Violence, Drug Use, Sexuality, Nudity. Ok for ages 14 and up. |
