violence
A child uses his psychic powers to compel three men to briefly stab, beat and strangle each other to death; however, there is limited detail. A child is shot, followed by brief sight of blood dripping. A possessed dog leaps at a man who shoots the animal dead; however, there is limited detail and no onscreen evidence of real animal cruelty.
threat and horror
There is a pervasive unsettling tone, sense of menace and occasional intensity. In one scene, children use their psychic powers to compel a man to jump to his death onto spiked railings; however, there is limited detail. In another scene, the children use psychic powers to cause a group of men to experience intense pain.
additional issues
The film contains brief verbal sex references, including to prostitution. There is brief emotional upset, including scenes in which women cry. as well as scenes in which children grieve following the death of one of their group. There is mild and very mild bad language ('bloody', 'hell', 'damn', 'God'). Adults smoke cigarettes in scenes which reflect the time period in which the film was made.
