Men talk about having sex with many women.

Several men sing a song with sexual lyrics.

In the beginning of the Director's cut Yrsa lets a man lick her cleavage. The scene cuts away before too much is shown.

Also in the beginning of the Director's cut we see a man chase Gitte and pull her down behind a table; the man proceeds to lift up her skirt as she giggles (the act is hidden by an overturned table nearby.

We see two women who appear to be nude (we see their bare legs and backs and shoulders) wrapping themselves in a blanket and running away.

A man stands up and is lightly wrapped by a toga-like drape: we see his bare leg and hip, the drape slips off his shoulder and his bare buttocks are visible.

A woman's dress is laced up the front and cleavage is visible.

A man reaches for a woman and pulls on her arm while asking for a kiss, but she pulls away.

A man calls a hall, "a hall of fornication."

Yrsa leans over to scrub a table while wearing a very low-cut dress, revealing a lot of her cleavage. Hondshew watches. Yrsa moans suggestively with each stroke and leers at the man (there are lingering close-up shots of her breasts). Hondshew makes a remark about his loins burning.

A creature looks human but is enormous, with malformed features, slime covered skin, and claws instead of hands. A female creature looks human apart from her long tentacle-like tail.

A flying creature looks like a dragon with large sharp teeth and enormous wings and it blows fire.

Many men on a bridge are burned by a huge flying creature: we see the men running in flames, a man jumps onto the back of the creature as it flies beneath the bridge, the creature picks up three men in its mouth, then spits them out, it drags its back on rock cliffs trying to get the man off its back, it dives into the sea taking the man with it, and they both come out OK.

Two men swim in the sea (we are told for 5 days), sea monsters attack and one man kills several of them by stabbing them in the eyes (blood spurts), slicing them down the body (blood and organs flow out), and one catches the man in its mouth and he pushes his way out through the monster's eye (blood spurts).

During a battle scene many arrows are launched in the air, one strikes a man through the head (blood spurts and the point pokes out of the back of his head), and other men fight with axes and swords, several men are struck, and blood spurts and sprays.

We see many bodies hanging from the ceiling of a hall and we see blood trickling down their limbs and onto the floor below.

A creature (we do not see its form clearly) screams and moans loudly, scratches itself on the face with a large claw and blood pours from the open wound.

The head of a dead creature falls in water behind a man and the man is startled.

A tentacle and a reptilian looking hand caress a creature's head and face as it lies dying (we see that the creature is missing its arm at the shoulder, and blood and bone are visible).

A man throws a creature's severed head on the floor as proof its demise.

7 sexual references, 1 anatomical term, 5 mild obscenities, 1 religious exclamation.

Many people are shown drinking mead until the point of drunkenness in several scenes.

A man lies unconscious on a table after he gets drunk.

A man falls asleep during a celebration after he gets drunk.

Mead is poured into a goblet and the goblet is carried to a man who drinks from it.

A large hall is called a mead hall and is used for celebrations.

Grendel screams and his mouth inside is shown on screen in one scene when he hears a women singing hero come home is quite frightening.

Grendel kills a lot of innocent people in disgusting, harrowing ways.

The violence includes dismemberment, impalement, bashed heads, people being eaten alive, and more.

The Grendel is a disturbing creature, with goo and puss oozing out of his body.
