Sex & Nudity

  • Sexual contents are present, some of them are disturbing, but no graphic details are ever shown. The theme of sadomasochism is faced.
  • A young man and a young woman are seen having sex twice throughout the movie. In the first scene, they are on a couch, kissing and touching each other: the woman's bare breasts and nipples are seen. She is on top, unzips his pants and starts to have sex with him, but after a while he stops her. In the second scene, they are kissing and making love on a bed; this scene is brief and romantic, and nothing is seen (they are both semi-covered with the sheets).
  • Two or three scenes take place in a sex shop, where plenty of bondage outfits and porn DVDs are shown, and moaning is heard in the background.

Violence & Gore

  • This movie does have a few violent scenes, most of them are very disturbing, however, no graphic nor gory detail is seen. Most of the violence takes place in the second half of the movie.
  • A man is cut apart alive with a saw inside a bathtub (offscreen, the victim screams, blood splatters around). Later, the killer takes the body's pieces, packed inside black trash bags, to the garbage trunk.

Profanity

  • Mildly strong language and swearing, especially by a female character towards the end.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

  • A man smokes pot with two or three women.
  • Random drinking of alcohol.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • The film's plot is highly disturbing and shocking, young or sensitive people might easily be impressed negatively with it.
  • Some scenes are violent, and those in which a woman is abused are unpleasant.
  • The movie becomes more and more disturbing towards the end, and the finale is very intense and upsetting.

Spoilers

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

Sex & Nudity

  • The movie's plot focuses on the sex-doll used by the lead character. In a scene that can be considered masturbation, he "has sex" with the doll on his bed to the point of having an orgasm (the scene is short and we only see him shirtless and thrusting). Later on the movie, the man acts like a "slave" to the doll, pretending to be punished and controlled by her. He is half-naked, and both him and the doll are wearing BDSM clothing.

Violence & Gore

  • A woman is kidnapped by a man: she is seen half-naked, tied to a bed, gagged, and has two very large needles inserted in her thighs, which start to suck out her blood, with the purpose of filling her body with a substance used for embalmment. The man's project does not end this way, but the young woman still ends up dead, shot multiple times by a cop who has mistaken her for a killer. This whole final sequence is very disturbing and upsetting.
