Sex & Nudity

Film has a high degree of sexuality as the main antagonists work for the porn film industry. There are numerous scenes that linger on shots of topless women but are in context with the films setting.

There are some scenes of half naked and scantily clad people making out including same sex couples, but is not overly explicit.

It is implied in one scene that a woman is raped.

There is a scene set in the projection room of a porno theatre. No imagery is shown of the movie playing, but the audio can be overheard - lots of grunting and groaning in typical porn movie fashion.

Violence & Gore

This film has a strong violent undercurrent, whlie not overtly graphic the violence portrayed is hard hitting and realistic.

Charcters are threated and abused physically and verbally throughout the film sometimes using weapons.

There are several scenes involving shootings with blood flow. One of these scenes in particular involves the filming of a snuff movie which is very realitic and disturbing due to the mental anguish the victim portrays - this is a torture scene.

There is a fight scene between 2 men involving punching and beating each other, which is moderate in impact compared to the other violence portrayed in the film.

A woman is repeatedly suffocated with a large soft toy used in an interrogation scene - this is a torture scene.

A woman is injected with an illegal narcotic to get her to comply sexually - the rape is implied.

A drugged woman has her face bashed against a brick wall.

There are a couple of scenes involving explosions.

The main antagonists in this film portary a high degree of criminal and anti social behaviour.



Profanity

Strong but infrequent use of typical coarse language. Much of it is conveyed in a sexual context.

There is a moderate degree of substance and alcohol abuse in the film, but is not an extensive part of the narrative.

The film is intense but not paticulary suspensful or frightening in a conventional way. It is not really a film suitable for anyone under the age of 16 and the content may offend some viewers.
