  • Muddy is shown to be a chain smoker.
  • An old lady mentions Xanax and offers it to Beavis.
  • On multiple occasions as a running gag, Beavis takes in massive amounts of drugs and hallucinates and goes crazy.

  • Beavis eats a peyote cactus and starts hallucinating.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • The scene at the beginning with Beavis and Butthead (in a dream) as giant monsters might scare younger viewers, but overall it is very mild.
  • Some of the pictures depicted in Beavis' mescaline trip might be frightening to some young children.

Spoilers

The Parents Guide items below may give away important plot points.

Sex & Nudity

  • In the scene where Beavis and Butthead hallucinate, two imaginary women are shown in trippy visuals with one's breast nipples visible, but it's only for artistic context.
  • Muddy tells Beavis and Butthead that he will pay them 10,000 dollars if they 'do his wife.' He intends for them to kill her, but because of the way he phrases it, the boys are under the impression that he's a cuckold playing them to have sex with his wife.

Violence & Gore

  • Chelsea Clinton pushes Butt-Head out of a window. Played for laughs.
