Sex & Nudity

  • The crime-scene sequence shows brief nudity as one of the boys is lifted up out of the water, but this is not explicit. Another very brief shot depicts the three naked boys laid out on the creek bank. In one crime scene photo, the buttocks and part of the scrotum of the victim is seen viewed from the rear.
  • A little over half way through the movie the character Vicki Hutcheson describes a ritual, the scene cuts to the ritual as she describes it. In the ritual the members engaged in the ritual remove their clothes and get naked. Nude butts and breasts are seen.

Violence & Gore

  • There is a mention of a guy who said he'd cut off a boy's head and put it on a doorstep. He was also mentioned to have threatened to eat his father and cut his mother's throat. These lines may be a bit disturbing to some.
  • The gore and bloodshed is brief, and is quite mild compared to any of the four documentaries. Having said that, the crime-scene footage is still gruesome as are some of the photo's seen during the court hearing.
