Dark Shadows
Contains moderate violence, horror, gore, sex references and soft drug use
violence
Scenes include fistfights in which fantastical beings hurl people through the air, and brief bloody moments in which a vampire bites a victim's neck. A vampire is shot in the back, producing brief blood spurts but no clear injury detail. During a climactic fight the witch's body develops an porcelain-like quality, and she eventually pulls out her heart which shatters.
sex
There are two scenes of implied sexual activity, including implied oral sex and a sequence in which the vampire positions himself between the witch's legs before the two fly around a room, destroying the furniture. There are also infrequent moderate sex references, such as the witch removing her underwear and placing them over the vampire's face as he lies chained and helpless in a coffin.
drugs
A group of hippies share a cannabis joint, but drug misuse is not glamorised or condoned by the work as a whole.
additional issues
Language includes use of 'bitch', 'bastard' and 'shit'.
