Sex & Nudity

  • Several sexual references and partial nudity.

Violence & Gore

  • A man is accidentally shot in the leg with an arrow. No blood.
  • A spinal column is very briefly shown on the floor.
  • A man states that he used to torture people, and shows his torture chamber.
  • Two people fight hand to hand, but then one is stabbed in the back with a large spear. A pool of blood is seen.
  • A police officer says a dog will have to be put down, believing it was responsible for attacking a person. The dog looks worried.
  • A man hangs in a torture chamber with a few minor bloody injuries, as another man stands next to him with a weapon.
  • We see the aftermath of a disembowelment, it is all blurred but you can make out an intestine strewed out and the inside of the stomach, with no organs
  • A vampire 'messes up' and hits the carotid and blood sprays everywhere.
  • One scene of one of the vampires vomiting large quantities of blood because he accidentally ate normal food.
  • One scene of an attack by werewolves on a human. It is described in detail afterwards and the victim is shown but with the injuries blurred out.
  • One scene of a vampire on fire and eventually burned to a crisp. Played for comedy, mostly.

Profanity

  • 14 uses of 'fuck", and 18 uses of "shit", among other milder profanities.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

  • Several scenes take place in bars and clubs where alcohol is served.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • The on-screen deaths of two characters, and the implied deaths of other people may be frightening.
  • The large amounts of blood shown can be disturbing.
  • The scene where Nick is attacked by several vampires is intense.
  • When Nick is in the convenient store he reveals a scary face to the clerk, kind of jarring and scary
  • Petyr's appearance may be frightening to some
