For People with Content Sensitivities:
No film is graphic but there's a reason why it's still on the extreme list. Some content might be particularly upsetting and while I would encourage most people to go into this blind, you can go to doesthedogdie.com or unconsentingmedia.org if even the mere suggestion of certain topics might be too much for you.
