Violence & Gore

He is unable to tear his tongue out in time; a train hits him. Blood sprays the train's window; his tongue is also seen, hanging from the clamp.
  • A woman is placed in a trap where she must sever her spinal cord in order to avoid being suffocated by boiling hot wax.

He tears off the cloth covering her face; parts of her skin are torn off when he does this.
  • A man is restrained in chains and suspended in the air. He is eventually dropped and blood smears his face. As a door is broken into, his arms, along with a gun strapped to his right arm, are yanked marionette-style, causing him to raise his right arm. A SWAT team thinks that he is going to shoot them so they shoot him multiple times, killing him.
