No doubt about, Mel likes blood, a lot. The film is engaging, you get interested from the begining to the end, because the story but even more because the powerful visuals, depiction of the characters and use of the camera.
There are three segments in the film. First, the village and main character are portrayed in a hunt scene. Even with the joy and family comfort of the scenes, blood appears. I got surprised by the scene after the couple that was trying to "conceive" a child. They have been deceived with some leaves that they should use to improve the chances of pregnancy, the guy had to rub them into his sexual organs, and in reality the leaves sparked a hot or spicy feeling. The guy leaves the hut trying to put his sexual organs in water, but the girl tried to refresh her mouth.
Second segment is the invasion by the Mayans, how they are guided to the Mayan city and the sacrifices there.
Third and last part of the movie, is the run away of the main character and final fight with the persecutors.
