In one of the films the protagonist has to watch, a rape is implied. Men approach a woman, and the scene cuts to the viewers horrified face and screams are heard for a few seconds.

One of the tapes being watched features a rape. A large man pins a woman onto a table and rips her shirt off, revealing her breasts for a split second. The camera cuts away, but he can be heard grunting as she screams repeatedly.

People working as film censors (including the main character) view highly violent movies for the purpose of determining whether they are too violent to be released to the public. We are shown many scenes from these fake movies, and they include eye-gouging, decapitation, stabbing, rape, and other violent acts with abundant blood and gore.

A young girl hacks another girl to pieces with an axe offscreen, but we see the bloody aftermath. (This takes place in a fake movie within the movie.)

A man is chopped in the chest with an axe. Blood spews and drips from the wound.

There are lots of bloody intense violent scenes in the movies the team watch to evaluate for censorship.

The entire tone of the film is bleak and depressing.

The film is overall pretty frightening and intense with "video nasties".
