Sex & Nudity

Jennifer has to strip down in one of the scenes in a change of clothing. The scene is blurred, and nothing explicit is shown. Two characters have sex and we see they are being watched. We see mainly the guys butt, but nothing explicit.

Violence & Gore

There is plenty of violence and gore in the movie. Jennifer is subjected to several traps with various torture methods. Some included scenes are blended body parts forced down her throat and more. Also, scenes without torture also have bloody parts, including gunshots.

In the opening sequence of the film we see a man strapped to a table of some sort, we see the hands of a killer preparing bandages which he puts around the bodies face, while this is happening their is acid dripping into a beaker. the victim wakes up when the cast is set around his face and has two tubes going up his nose. The tubes lead to a funnel which the acid is poured into, causing the victim to violently thrash while blood pours out of other tubes. In one of the traps jennifers character has a shotgun pointing at her head, and another shotgun next to her pointing at her dog which is in a metal basket, a 30 second timer starts and if jennifer does not shoot the dog she will be shot herself. at the last second she shoots it, there is alot of blood and chunks stuck to the cage but there's no body left over, it just pretty much explodes. at one point one of the characters has a tooth ripped out of his mouth which is made to look quite graphic lots of blood and holes from gunshots which are mostly in the end scenes.

Profanity

Not too much profanity is in the movie, though there is some use of the "f" word and such. Not too much, but there is some throughout the movie.

Jennifer drinks some alcohol in a scene, which is later drugged by an unknown assailant. Jennifer is also captured during the movie, and is injected to be knocked out.

The movie has plenty of frightening and intense scenes. The settings are dark and Jennifer is tortured and played with by an unknown assailant, which is intense.
