violence
In one scene, a pair of men trade punches. However, this is impressionistic and brief.
threat and horror
Police officers shoot at an advancing car driven by an alien, causing it to veer off the road and explode into a ball of flames. An alien falls through a crevasse into a pool following an implied shooting. Aliens steadily approach human characters, causing them to scream as they become engulfed in smoke. The aliens subsequently hold humans hostage and adopt their guises in order to blend into society. However, scenes of threat ultimately result in reassuring outcomes.
alcohol and smoking
An adult character smokes a tobacco pipe, however, this is indicative of the historical period in which this film was made.
disturbing images
There is brief sight of a dead coyote lying on the side of a road.
