USED PEOPLE is a US romantic comedy drama, from 1993, in which a stranger turns up at a man's funeral and professes his long-held love for the widow.

threat and horror
A woman seduces a man and handcuffs him to a bed. She drips wax onto his chest and threatens to harm his genitals unless he agrees to her non-sexual demands. A young boy, who believes he is invulnerable, places himself in potentially harmful situations. His actions are not condoned and seen as a result of mental illness.
additional issues
There are moderate visual and verbal sex references. Infrequent strong language ('f**k') is accompanied by milder terms such as 'damn', 'hell', 'God' and 'Jesus'. An elderly woman makes an insensitive comment about a disabled person, referring to them as a 'gimp'. There is occasional rude humour. There are references to mental health and upsetting sequences relating to bereavement.
