Frightening & Intense Scenes
-
- This movie is very intense, and it's not really a family movie. There's plotting (in a very realistic manner), there's cruelty by the guards. Mistreatment and verbal abuse. We see a fairly violent prison riot scene. This is not for children.
- This movie is about a boy who is sent to an extraordinarily bad camp with violent boys, and must cope with nobodies as wardens, strict bedtimes and working in the hot sun.
- A boy is bit by a rattlesnake.
- A woman commits suicide by putting a venomous lizard to her arm and allowing it to bite her.
- There is a town riot; a black man is being persecuted to be hanged. The schoolhouse is set on fire and the man's mule is found dead. The man attempts to escape but is eventually shot in the back.
- A boy is trapped in a hole with venomous lizards tries to escape. He is unable to escape.
