8/10
During a dream sequence, we see a nude woman tied to a bed (bare breasts and abdomen are visible) while other nude men and women surround her (it is dark so we see mostly their silhouettes, but bare breasts are visible from a distance on some women). A beastly, demonic-looking creature approaches the women and begins to rape her: he caresses her body, we see him thrusting on top of her, she appears uncomfortable and the scene ends.

4/10
We see a woman's dead body lying on the ground after she commits suicide; there is a numerous amount of blood on her face, the ground, and a nearby car. We see this image only once again.
The heroine is tied down to a bed and impregnated by the devil incarnate, but because she thinks she's dreaming, she doesn't struggle or react much.

A woman thrashes and screams as people hold her down on a bed, believing they intend to take her baby after she delivers it. They shove a rag into her mouth and a man injects her with a sedative and says that she's going into labor. When she awakens, a man tells her that the baby was stillborn. She accuses them of lying, begins trowing a fit and they sedate her again. |

8/10
Members of a cult drug a women, who is then raped by a demon that is implied as Satan. The scene is eerie and uncomfortable to watch, but it is shot in a surreal and disjointed manner.
The last scene in which a coven of Satanists proclaim blasphemy such as "hail Satan" and "God is dead" may easily upset religious viewers.
Near the middle, the pregnant heroine becomes increasingly paranoid and fearful for her unborn child's life. Eventually as she's trying to escape, her husband and obstetrician escort her home in a taxi against her will but she doesn't fight them. Again she escapes into an ascending manual elevator which stops between floors. She has to jump down a few feet but lands unharmed but begins having contractions as she continues running. Her husband and doctor and other enemies catch up with her and hold her down as she does into labor.
