QUÄLEN is a British horror film in which a man inherits his father's sawmill under the condition that he lives there; however, unexplained events begin to occur once he moves in.
violence
There are occasional scenes of strong bloody violence, including stabbings and use of a pickaxe. In one scene, a pair of men physically assault another man before forcing his arm into an animal trap, resulting in bloody aftermath detail. Other moments include a man throwing a character through a window, characters drowning and men engaging in a brawl involving punches, chokehold and flying kicks.
threat and horror
There are scenes of psychological horror in which a man believes he sees and hears frightening apparitions. There is also a sequence in which objects move independently and screams can be heard in the background.
sexual violence and sexual threat
There are verbal references to a gang rape of a woman, accompanied by a portrayal of rape. A character wraps a chain around the woman's neck, although the scene is brief and does not show the group of attackers.
additional issues
There is a scene of implied moderate sex, as well as a sequence in which a man briefly fondles a woman’s clothed breast. There is also partial breast and buttock nudity in a sexual context, however, this is infrequent and brief. During a flashback sequence, a character takes their own life, resulting in brief sight of blood. There is infrequent use of discriminatory language ('cripple'), however, this occurs within a dated context. Infrequent strong language occurs (’f**k’), as well as milder terms including ‘bastard’, ‘bloody’, ‘slut’, ‘arse’, ‘shit’, ‘bitch’ and ‘hell’.
