Violence & Gore

  • A group of armed men storm into a downtown bank to rob it, knocking down a security guard and hitting anyone in their way as they advance toward the vault.
  • That same group of men break into an old woman's apartment to take it over.
  • The dead body of a woman (seen earlier floating in the river bank) is examined by a detective who notices rope burns.
  • The coroner examines the cadaver of the dead woman lying on a table. We are also shown autopsy photos of a deceased man covered in cigarette burns.
  • Several photographs show a man in recovery from a razorblade attack that left him with bloody incisions all across his face and body.
  • A man is whacked in the face by a crutch. He is then knocked out entirely with another hit from the crutch.
  • The dead body of the old lady in the apartment is discovered with a head wound.
  • A woman is attacked from behind. She launches her bodyweight backwards smashing them both through a coffee table. The attacker attempts to strangle her with a telephone cord as she continues to fight back, desperately hitting him until her hand finds a large knitting needle that she jabs square into his chest... killing him.
  • Close-up of the attacker's dead bloody face at a crime scene.
  • A small scrap occurs resulting in a man being hit several times and a teen girl launching onto the attacker's back only to be knocked back down and held at gunpoint.
  • A two-man fight in a graveyard; one swings a shovel with abandon while the other dips, dives, and dodges as best he can. They trade hits, kicks, and shoves until one of them offsets the other by rubbing dirt in his eyes. Now with the upper hand and a broken part of the shovel he readies a final attack... but then chooses not.
