We see the remains of aliens in a laboratory setting where experiments took place: in one scene we linger on the bloody remains of an alien.

Spoilers
Sex & Nudity
- There is a fake rumour spread by the local media that Wikus had sex with a Prawn. We see a few brief glimpses of a fake photoshopped image of him behind a bent over Prawn. No nudity and the sex never actually happened.
Violence & Gore
- A live alien is used as a target for a weapon demonstration. It appears scared and hopeless and is then blown up violently by the weapon with gore splattering in almost every direction.
Frightening & Intense Scenes
- A man is strapped into a chair and forced to test alien weaponry, his captors repeatedly shock him with a taser to make him fire the weapons.
- Several scenes take place in a lab where disturbing things are being done to prawns and some humans. Many prawn bodies in various stages of mutilation are visible.
- There is a scene in which a clutch of more than dozen alien eggs are destroyed by fire. The screams are heard in forms of popping. Although not shown, it can still be disturbing.
- Wikus is smuggled away in a bag to a classified MNU experimentation facility where his alien arm is tested on alien weaponry, he is forced to shoot helpless aliens. Scientists try to harvest his organs while he is awake, but he retaliates against them and ultimately escapes
- The mutation process in which Wikus becomes an alien is quite graphic and unsettling as his body rapidly deteriorates and falls apart over the course of the film.
