Positive Messages
Even the seemingly successful pursuit of eternal youth might have some unanticipated drawbacks.
Positive Role Models & Representations
Violence
Violence is played for comedy. A woman who can't die is shot through the stomach, which creates a huge, see-through hole in the middle of her body. Another undead's neck is broken, resulting in her head facing the wrong way, which, though played for comedy, may seem grotesque to younger children. People fall down stairs and break into pieces. A man and woman plot to kill someone. A man chokes a woman, then lets her fall down a long flight of stairs. Two women fight each other, swinging shovels. One's necks fall limp until she snaps it back into place.
Sex
A woman has an affair with a younger man, who is cheating on her. Bare buttocks are seen for a few seconds. Impotence is discussed.
Language
"S--t," "bitch," "ass," "t-ts," "for Christ's sake."
Consumerism
The notion that youth and beauty can be purchased by the elite is a part of this movie's fantasy.
