Spoilers

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

Violence & Gore

  • Some people start to surgically remove a mans nipple, though the audience knows it's just part of an alien's disguise.
  • Two men are thrown out of a window to their deaths. Not very graphic, but the context it is shown in makes it a bit horrifying.
  • There is also a scene in which a big gun is shot many times, perhaps a dozen times. It is shooting blanks. It is disturbing since it is done in such a playful manner, as if guns are toys.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

  • Thomas reveals his true form. The aliens have completely pale skin, baldheads and yellow, slit eyes.
