threat and horror
A witch holds a knife over the head of a sleeping child, there are verbal threats to boiling children alive and eating them, and a scene in which characters are hoisted by a sling mechanism before being lowered into a vat of boiling batter and then into an oven. There are also scenes in which children hear ominous voices whilst lost in a forest, are terrorised by a witch who holds them captive in her home and locked in cages. Scary scenes are counterbalanced by reassuring outcomes and a focus on the resourcefulness of its main characters.
additional issues
There are verbal references to a fairytale in which a prince kisses a sleeping princess, scenes of emotional upset, and infrequent rude humour
