Sex & Nudity

lots of sex references and jokes....but only people making out is shown.

In one make-up scene, a boy gropes a girls breast over her clothes.

some sexual dialogue where a senior asks a groveling freshman if she "spits or swallows"

reference to cunnilingus in the form of graffitti on a wall at the school.

One of the male characters is referred to as "mr. premature ejaculation", after he brags about his sexual conquests.

Violence & Gore

incoming high school freshmen are beaten with wooden paddles

the girls are forced to grovel and are hazed by doing embarassing things

there is a fight that happens at a party and a guy gets a bloody nose

4 kids in a car knock over a mailbox with a baseball bat, and a man runs after them with a gun (no one gets hurt)

An angry woman storms out of her house, rifle in hand and points it at a young man whom is chasing and bullying her freshmen son. No one gets hurt.

Profanity

about 30 f words, but language and sexual discussion are prevalent throughout the entire film, mostly involving high school students

Teenaged characters are seen constantly smoking marijuana, drinking alcohol and smoking cigarettes. There is a big water tower party scene in which everyone is seen smoking and drinking. The substance abuse is treated in a very casual way. There are also some vague references to harder drugs but none are taken on-screen.

One of the characters is shown either dropping acid at the school water fountain or taking pills.

Some people may find the "bullying" aspect of the senior boys literally beating the freshmen a little disturbing.
