Does the dog die?

Fatal Instinct
Movie • 1993 • Comedy
ReportA spoof of the late 80s and early 90s suspense thrillers and murder mysteries, including Basic Instinct, Sleeping With The Enemy, Cape Fear and others. A cop/attorney (yes he's both) is seduced by a woman while his wife is having an affair with a mechanic. Lots of other sublots and visual gags in the style of Naked Gun.

No animal is harmed, but a scene implies that a skunk may have been boiled alive, as a reference to the Bunny Boiler in Fatal Attraction. The skunk is revealed to be at an amusement park, and the boiling pot contains spaghetti.

There are flashbacks to a woman's abusive husband yelling at her and acting physically intimidating, and though no violence occurs on screen, the woman is shown with a black eye. Her intense reactions to these flashbacks are meant to be humorous. Later, her husband stalks her, and is shown about to strangle her, but is stopped.
A cop is shown slapping a woman who he was sexually involved with, in order to get answers from her. Played for laughs as he fails to comprehend her answers and she repeatedly slaps him, mirroring his actions.

affidavit
There are several non-explicit sex scenes, as well as sensual scenes such as characters bathing together nude, and scenes where cleavage (but not naked breasts) is heavily featured. In a parody of Fatal Attraction, a woman reveals she is not wearing underwear and spreads her legs. There are also scenes with sexual implications which are later shown to be innocent (such as jumping on the bed or spinning plates while laying down).

There is a very brief scene where a man's buttocks are shown covered in blood after he stowed away under a car on a bumpy road. Another scene has frequent references to blood all over the floor, but it is never shown, even on characters who fall in it. Most other violence is unaccompanied by gore.

A woman is shown to consider her face ugly, due having undergone reconstructive surgery following an accident, and she states that she is ugly now, but was beautiful before and no longer looks like herself or her twin. This is played for laughs due to her 'new' face (the actress' real face) being stereotypically beautiful.
