Sex & Nudity

  • A deformed, wheelchair-bound elderly scientist gives teenagers brain surgery to control their minds and make them have sex with him.
  • Scenes of full nudity and sexual positions.
  • An implied gay travel agent eyes a teenage boy's crotch excitedly. The boy takes offense to this and makes a creeped-out face.
  • A boy wearing nothing but stained boxers and a knight helmet, sneaks in on a girl taking a shower.
  • An old woman is said to have owned a prostitutes' nest; apparently she gave all the youngest and prettiest "whores" to her scientist husband for sex experiments.
  • A boy tells a girl "I'm not gonna rape you!"
  • Several uses of sexual phrases, slang for penis and breasts, some innuendo.
  • A boy and girl roll in bed briefly.

Violence & Gore

  • A dwarf uses knives strapped to a hearse to chop two teens' heads off.
  • A man cracks his knuckles grotesquely.
  • Blood pours from a tap and frightens a girl.
  • A boy is hit on the head and knocked out.
  • Teenagers undergo brain experiments that leave them listless and they are then forced to have sex.
  • An old woman is strangled and is seen with a blue tongue.
  • While trying to help his new friends, a dwarf is thrown down a flight of stairs where he dies from the impact.
  • Kids are gassed to knock them out.
  • Some arguing and fighting.
  • It is mentioned that a girl's parents have died.
  • A fire is seen with shots of impaled men on the ground.

Profanity

  • A lot of swearing, sex phrases and name-calling. "rape", "fuck", "bloody hell", "christ (used as a swear)", "whorehouse", "damn", "wanker", etc.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

  • All three are frequently present in the film, most notably a neon-green substance in martini glasses that every character drinks; the stuff appears to sedate people and make them high.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • Despite the often crass and bizarre content, this film is from the very early 1970's and most of the violence is comical and very cheaply done. However, the film was recorded on Eastmancolour Kodak film, making the scenes with blood very bright red and vivid. This may bother some viewers.
  • The teens (minors) being forced to have sex with an old man may bother viewers.
  • A boy is chased down by men in leather suits. The boy's blue jeans are visible often from the backside where a brown stain, possibly a poop stain, is seen on them, implying that he was so frightened that he had an "accident".
