Sex & Nudity

  • Many bare breasted women are seen dancing in one scene.
  • A woman is stripped and sexually assaulted.
  • Skinny dipping with brief frontal nudity.
  • A man stumbles around naked: though he covers himself with his hand, we see his buttocks and hips.
  • A young boy is naked in the background of a few shots with nudity obscured.

Violence & Gore

  • Two crows can be seen getting shot to death.
  • A field filled with dead rabbits can be seen.
  • Many shootings, some show bloody wounds and occasional blood spray, others show nothing but a jerking body.
  • A village is shown with its massacred inhabitants littering the place. Some bloody bodies are seen from a distance. Blood is seen on walls and the ground. Some of the carnage belongs to animals: their entrails are seen in bloody closeups for a split-second.
  • Several shots of graphic branding; a man quietly burns himself to death. Several scenes feature a swarm of bees, including a scene where a man bites a hive and we presume the bees sting him.
  • A man is swiftly castrated. Blood sprays upward for a split-second as we see his POV (we do not see his genitals). He then shoots himself in the mouth splattering the wall behind him with blood (very brief).

Profanity

  • Occasional swear words are uttered.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

  • A few people are shown drinking.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • The branding scenes are intense, though brief.
  • A couple of unwilling (but brief) sex scenes may distress some viewers.
  • Some bizarre imagery, such as an armless man and legless man sticking to each other to make a complete one.
