Frightening & Intense Scenes

moderate

Dead animals are shown. This might upset children or sensitive persons. No animals are shown being attacked, only after the fact. A man transforms into an alien creature in a graphic way. Somewhat intense, especially considering the time period. The Creeping Unknown is electrocuted at Westminister Abbey with powerful cables. Shrieking is heard and flames engulf the creature. This could be frightening to children or sensitive persons. Not shocking by today's standards.
