Film

An American Werewolf In London

Contains strong language, once very strong, bloody violence and gore

violence
The film contains some scenes in which people are attacked by werewolves, accompanied by sight of blood and injury detail. During a dream sequence, a man believes his family is killed by monsters with sight of children lying dead covered in blood and the man himself having his throat slit. Other scenes include sight of a decomposing undead character with parts of his face ripped away by a werewolf's claw, and another dream sequence in which a woman is repeatedly stabbed by a monster.
language
There is infrequent very strong language ('c**t'), as well as some strong language ('f**k').
additional issues
The film also contains a sex scene in which breast nudity is seen, and a climactic sequence set in a Soho sex cinema which includes breast nudity.
