Sex & Nudity

  • Rape is mentioned; but neither the act nor nudity is shown.
  • No nudity in the entire movie, only a man (cartoon) who is in his white underwear.
  • A teenage girl asks if an older man wants to 'screw' her.
  • Men describe the act of sexually assaulting an unconscious woman. Some vulgar slang and sexual references. No nudity or act shown.

Violence & Gore

  • There is an animated segment where multiple people are killed. These are done in gruesome ways such as people's body parts exploding and blood spraying. Even though it happens in animation its still violent.
  • The bride rips out a man's eye with her fingers. Graphic, but quick and it's in black and white.
  • There is a very bloody fight scene but it is very unrealistic. But still graphic and brutal.
  • The bride fights a 17 year old. In that scene, she takes a floorboard and stabs the girl in the foot and then her head. Her eyes bleed. This is somewhat brutal.
  • The aftermath of a bloody massacre/fight is seen, we see multiple dead bodies with blood and missing limbs. Graphic
  • A woman stabs a man in the stomach. Extremely bloody
  • A woman decapitates a man onscreen. The severed head is shown and a geyser of blood sprays out from the neck. This is graphic. The woman then holds the man's severed head in closeup for many seconds.
  • The Bride kills a woman by throwing a knife into her chest. She then pulls it out and wipes the blood off. This isnt that graphic and only a small amount of blood is shown, but it's still pretty disturbing considering the fact that the woman's young daughter was standing right there when it happened.
  • Before the major fight, the Bride kills other guys in a bloody and graphic fashion with her swords.
  • The Bride kills a man by slamming two doors to crush his head. The impact isnt shown but the sound of his head cracking is heard.
  • The Bride bites on a mans tounge and pulls on it. We hear a ripping sound and then see him lying unconscious on the ground covered in blood.
  • While bloody, it is very stylized, unrealistic, and almost cartoonish. However it is still very graphic.
  • A woman's arm gets lopped off. She writhes in pain and there's a huge fountain of blood coming out of the stump, which gets everywhere including the camera.
  • Defintely one of the most violent movies of all time
  • This pushes the R rating to the absolute limit.
  • Many people die throughout the film in very gruesome ways. This is definitely not very children, but most of the blood is meant to look fake and make the film comedic.
  • In the biggest fight scene, numerous bad guys are hacked up left and right. Although, this sequence is in black and white it is still extremely bloody and graphic and the amount of blood that sprays is outlandish.

Profanity

  • 16 uses of "fuck", 2 uses of "cunt", and other milder terms like "bitch", "shit", "ass", "hell" and "damn". 1 use of "cocksucker"

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

  • The main character orders a bottle of sake.
  • A minor is seen drinking excessive amounts of alcohol.
  • Scenes can be found of background characters drinking alcohol and smoking.
  • Contains scenes of alcohol consumption and brief smoking
  • Characters are infrequently seen smoking and drinking.
  • A 17-year-old girl is seen drinking heavily from a bottle in a bar. She slams it down aside scattered empty glasses.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • The only thing that could potentially disturb viewers is the amount of violence. Not a scary movie.
  • There is a lot of graphic violence and brutal kills.
  • The anime segment of the movie is quite intense. The depiction of the murder of a married couple is violent and shocking.

Spoilers

The Parents Guide items below may give away important plot points.

Sex & Nudity

  • A man is referred to as a pedophile and an 11 year old girl kills him (this part is animated). The man is wearing white underwear, as he lies in his bed. No nudity is shown.
  • A man crawls on top of a seemingly unconscious woman, with the intent to rape her. The camera pans away and she bites his bottom lip off. No nudity shown.

Violence & Gore

  • The movie is about a woman whose child is killed (not shown) and her revenge.
  • A villain's head is partly cut off, we see blood and her scalp land on the ground and also briefly her partially exposed brain as she falls dead. This is very graphic.
  • In the beginning, we see the bride with blood on her face. The screen goes black and we hear a gunshot.
  • During the major fight, the Bride slices and dices through the Crazy 88. Men are stabbed with swords and axes, many lose limbs, one gets decapitated and another gets bifurcated vertically. Most of the scene is in black and white or in shadow, but we see the aftermath in color as the injured limp out and we see bodies and blood all over the place.
  • The Bride chops off the top of someone head and you can see the scalp fly off as well as the brain in the head.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • The basis of the story is the attempted murder of a pregnant woman who lost her baby while in a coma. May be disturbing.
