nudity | Rated R for bloody horror violence and gore. A woman gets a massage and her husband is listening outside the door thinking she's having sex because of the noises that she's making. One critic is clearly a womanizer and puts his hand on a pretty girl's rear end. Although not sexual a woman is injected with a sedative in her buttocks. |
violence | A group of people murder a man with broken bottles, knives, etc. and he is seen later all cut up and bloody. A man has a spear shoved through his chest and his body is tied to the back of a horse and dragged along a road. A man's head is cut off with a saw (we see blood spurting from his neck and later see him decapitated) A man's chest is cut open and his heart ripped out (his bloody heart is later shown in a present box) A man has a funnel inserted down his throat and another man stuffs food down the funnel causing the man to die. A man is drowned in a vat of wine. A woman is electrocuted and we see the brutal electrical burns afterwards. A man is clubbed over the head and kidnapped. A man suffocates his wife with a pillow. We see two severed heads of poodles. A police officer is murdered when the car he is hiding in is parked on train tracks(Happens off screen but we hear it over a radio). A bloody sword fight in which a man's chest is slashed several times but he survives. A woman is presumably killed with a blow to the head. A man falls to a fiery death. A man attempts suicide by jumping from a balcony into the Thames River. |
profanity | 1 use of bitch. 1 use of faggot(referring to a bundle of sticks) in a Shakespearean speech but since it is said while Vincent Price is disguised as a gay hairdresser it could have a double meaning. |
alcohol | Adults drink alcohol and smoke cigarettes thoughout the film. |
frightening | The murder scenes mentioned are all pretty intense. There are a few other frightening scenes throughout the film. |
