Sex & Nudity

3/10

Recommended MPAA Rating: PG-13 for Comic Horror Violence and Language

A man and a woman passionately kiss, the man later mentions something about "pillow talk", meaning things he said during sex.

A woman is forced to kiss an undead character with a skinless face. The scene is not frightening as much as it is grotesque.

A brief glimpse of a side-breast is seen as a slave woman walks across the screen, apparently wearing vertical brown strips, which only cover her nipples. The rest of her breasts are visible. However, it is very dark, and only for a second. Nothing graphic is ever shown.

Violence & Gore

5/10

Skeletons attacking a castle, they get chopped by Ash and his knights. Obviously no blood.

A man is pushed into a pit, and a ridiculous fountain of blood sprays out. Not disturbing at all, but comical.

Ash is trapped inside the pit with a deadite he gets beaten up by it a bit. He gets his chainsaw, and decapitates. Blood sprays on the wall and the head falls down in the water.

As Ash is on the ground, skeleton hands come out and grab his legs and he falls. They grab his face, and twist his nose and punch him. This scene is intended to be funny, which it is.

Ash shoots a witch with a shotgun, there's no blood.

A man gets a cut down his cheek, little blood. Early in the movie, the main character uses a chainsaw to cut off his own hand, but no blood is seen.

Profanity

5/10

One Very Faint F-word, a couple S-words.

Mild profanity such as "ass" and "damn"

(PG-13 type Profanity)

None.

5/10

Many weird, fantastical things happen to a man.

An object that is never shown follows him through the woods.

An army of skeletons and undead invades a castle.

A graveyard comes alive and many skeleton hands assault a man walking above.

Most of these things are meant to be funny; the skeleton hands assaulting the man evoke slapstick from The Three Stooges.

Early in the movie, the main character uses a chainsaw to cut off his own hand, but no blood is seen.

A witch pretends to be dead. Suddenly, she wakes up surprisingly. This may be a jump scare.

The main villain is a reanimated corpse who's entire body is covered in burnt flesh. This may be a tad scary to some, but it isn't very graphic.

Overall Explicit Content 18/50. It isn't really that bad of a movies for something R-rated except for a couple blood squirts.
