nudity | A woman exercises in tight work-out clothes. She then fights with a man who breaks in her house, is tied up, and kidnapped.

It is implied that one of the stalkers is trying to rape a woman, but gets shocked before anything can occur (See "Violence & Gore" for more details). |
violence | Many people are shot but its rarely graphic. Man's head explodes after his explosive collar detonates.Seen from a distance but very gruesome. It's heavily implied that a crowd of people are massacred by helicopter gunfire (this is seen and mentioned a couple of times). Man pins a piece of paper to another man's back by stabbing him with a pen. Painful but comical. A man is sliced between the legs with a chainsaw. (not seen) Some blood splatters on his face. This is also very gruesome, but is partly played for comedic effect. A guy gets electrocuted. Another guys also gets electrocuted. A man's throat is sliced by barb wire; some blood squirts from his neck. A character wearing an electric suit attempts to rape a woman but is electrocuted when she shoots a sprinkler system which comes into contact with his outfit, killing him. A woman has her neck broken and thrown into barbwire. Two men have a fight with bloody results. One man is thrown into spikes. This is graphic. Character is burned to death on-screen, mildly graphic.

alcohol | The main hero smokes a cigar at the beginning. A man makes a snide remark to a large, muscular man about being deaf from steroid use; the same muscular man jokes about having to "score some steroids" later in the film. |
