violence
In a scene of murder-suicide, a woman smothers her child off screen and beats her husband to death with a mallet; the actual blows are kept below frame. A video game character shoots people and slashes a man’s throat, creating blood spurts. There is also infrequent sight of bloodied dead bodies.
