violence
Scenes of moderate comic violence include one in which a clown bites off a person’s ear, with brief bloody aftermath detail.
threat and horror
One of the main characters is a 'scary' clown who attacks and bites people or threatens them with knives.
language
There is use of strong language (‘f**k’). Milder terms include ‘cock’, ‘prick’, ‘twat’, ‘bitch’, ‘dick’, ‘shit’, ‘bullshit’, ‘arse’, ‘arsehole’, ‘piss off’, ‘bloody hell’ and ‘bastard’.
sex
There are crude comic sex references, including references to sexual fetishes and pornography and use of the term ‘f**k’ in the sexual sense. A clown inadvertently performs a graphic fellatio gesture while attempting to mime being trapped in a box.
discrimination
A person accidentally uses the term ‘rug munchers’ in place of ‘rugrats’. There are also mild scenes of sexist behaviour and occasional derogatory comments about people’s weight.
drugs
There are comic scenes involving drug misuse and references to drugs, such as a sequence in which a group of people dance and hallucinate while high on a number of drugs including ecstasy.
sexual violence and sexual threat
There are occasional comic verbal references to sexual violence. For example, one man mistakes another for an aggressor and a ‘pervert’ and offers to let him ‘have his way’ with his female companion. A clown suggests the troupe name ‘Clown Pedo’ as a play on the word ‘torpedo’. Another person is referred to as a ‘nonce’.
injury detail
Occasional comic injury detail includes sight of a blade sticking through a man’s hand in the aftermath of an accidental stabbing. We see moderate burn wounds on a person’s face, as well as moderate images of a charred corpse after a botched makeshift cremation. A man is briefly shown cradling his dead dog after it is inadvertently run over, but the detail is bloodless and deliberately unrealistic.
