Common Sense Note

Parents need to know that this movie isn't suitable for kids. While not constant, there are some graphic gory moments. One is a vampire feeding frenzy and the other is the climactic scene where the brothers defend themselves and their friends from attacking vampires. Killing of innocents are mostly implied. One notable scene features a hallucination of maggots and rice.

Sexual Content

Implied sex.

Violence

Implied killing of innocent people, gory deaths with a lot of bitings, dismemberments, and impaling.

Language

Infrequent use of the word "s--t."

Social Behavior

Main characters are good children, brothers who look out for each other and their family. All socially deviant behavior (in this case, vampirism) has consequences (in this case, death).

Consumerism

Not applicable

Drugs / Tobacco / Alcohol

One reference to possible marijuana use.
