The content of this page was created directly by users and has not been screened or verified by IMDb staff.
Since the beliefs that parents want to instill in their children can vary greatly, we ask that instead of adding your personal opinions about what is right or wrong in a film, that you instead use this feature to help parents make informed viewing decisions by describing the facts of relevant scenes in the title for each one of the different categories: Sex and Nudity, Violence and Gore, Profanity, Alcohol/Drugs/Smoking, and Frightening/Intense Scenes.

Sex & Nudity

There is no nudity. A woman wears a sexy French maid's uniform throughout the film with frequent visual gags revolving around her cleavage. A woman is identified as a well known madam of a brothel with frequent double entendre about the services her girls provide. A man reveals himself to be a homosexual. A woman makes reference to her husband's genitals being cut off. Most of the sexual references are light-hearted and silly.

Violence & Gore

A great number of people are murdered in a variety of comedic fashions as a main part of the film, though no real gore is ever truly shown. A man is presumed to have been shot dead. A woman is stabbed in the back. A woman is strangled with rope. A man is bludgeoned with a pipe. A man is bludgeoned with a wrench. A woman is shot dead. A man is shot and checks his wound, showing a bloody hand. In order to fool a police officer several corpses are positioned in various fashions to make them appear to still be alive, including a woman feigning a make-out session with one. All of these situations are played for absurd laughs.

Profanity

"Damn", "Hell" are the strongest things to be found. b@stard is used 2 times

Characters drink alcoholic beverages like brandy and cognac in the context of a private party. Most characters smoke. At one point it is suspected the brandy has been poisoned. One dead man is said to be "dead drunk."

The entire film centers around numerous murders occurring in the confines of one house over the course of one evening, but the entire concept is designed for laughs and is rarely played for actual suspense or fright. Occasional tricks such as unexpected thunder claps or barking dogs are used to make the viewer jump.
