The Soul Eater

violence

Strong and disturbing scenes of violence feature frenzied attacks with bladed weapons and axes, the biting and ripping of flesh, and shootings and heavy beatings, which are accompanied by extensive bloodshed. The barrel of a gun is pressed into the gaping wound in a man's broken leg as an assailant forces him to reveal information. There are suggestions that people derived sexual stimulation from committing acts of violence on one another. There are also references to the physical domestic abuse of children.

sexual violence and sexual threat

There are unsettling references to child sexual abuse and children being abducted for exploitation on the dark web, but there is no visual reinforcement of such abuse.

injury detail

Strong gory injury detail is seen in the aftermath of violent events, and includes bodies lying in pools of blood, extensive wounds and blood spraying from a person's neck following an axe attack. Jagged bones protrude from a large, bloody wound in a broken leg. There are also images of dead animals with exposed innards.

additional issues: Strong language ('f**k') is accompanied by milder terms such as 'bitch' and 'shit'. There is strong gun and knife threat, as well as scenes that suggest the malign presence of a supernatural entity. There are bloody images in the aftermath of a suicide, as well as verbal references to a person attempting to take their own life. There are references to a synthetic drug, the over-consumption of which causes extreme and unpredictable behaviour.
