Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • Near the start of the movie, a young child is snatched by a quickly moving alien, as the father rushes to save him to no avail. The mother is shown as already knowing he won't make it in time. This frightening scene is dwelt upon during the rest of the movie, including further discussion, visiting the site, photos of the child, grief, blame, etc.
  • The death of a main character towards the end of the film is emotionally intense, especially his words, which preceed his death.
  • The monsters are extremely disturbing. They are humanoids with spider-like limbs, rotting flesh, and jagged teeth. They have armor-like "panels" on their eyeless faces that extend using sinewy muscles to reveal hearing organs on the side of their heads.
  • A main character dies at the end which can be sad for some viewers
  • One of the main characters sacrifices himself to save his children, while it is frightening, it may also make some people sad.
