Based on the computer role-playing game (RPG) of the same name, Anachronox: The Movie is a feature-length "machinima" motion picture. In the 2002 Annual Machinima Awards, Anachronox was awarded first place for best picture, first place for best writing, first place for best technical achievement, first place for best visual design, and first place for best editing.
A robot, often referred to as a kid, asks an unnamed character if they'd like to see their batteries. I don't know if that's supposed to be a sexual joke or not.
There is a short scene where a character bangs their head against the wall, not with the intention of hurting themselves, but out of boredom. They don't get injured by it.
Main characters go to a strip club where a main character performs a sensual dance. There is no nudity or undressing. The word "sex" is shown but not said.
Not technically, but a character has two of their limbs amputated (not shown explicitly on screen) due to an accident: their arm up to their elbow, and their leg up to their knee.
Yes. An enemy is thrown into lava, though the movie does not show their suffering.
Also, a character threatens another to throw them into a volcano. This threat is not carried through.
Not intentionally. An alien character mistakes a human one for a man, instead of a woman, likely because in their planet, there are no humans, and doesn't know how to distinguish between genders of that species.
There are loud noises, but most of them aren't sudden: the viewer can see the origin of the loud sound and anticipate it. However, there is a comic sequence that has a sudden loud noise for an onomatopoeia.
A character calls another by their birthname after years of not seeing each other. This character then corrects the first, telling them that they go by another name now.
It is not deadnaming, as the character is not trans.
Not shown explicitly on screen, but a character has two of their limbs amputated due to an accident: their arm up to their elbow, and their leg up to their knee.
One of the main characters is a robot who is often referred to as "kid" and the main character's child. This robot was deactivated for a long period of time before the movie's events.
Furthermore, there a scene where one of the main characters finds an alone child, with no caregivers around. It is unclear whether the kid was abandoned or if their caregivers passed away.
Main characters suffer from PTSD. The following will spoil part of the story:
Three characters have recurring nightmares regarding a shared experience: one of them was kidnapped, the other died in a car crash, and another lost the first two characters.
A major plot theme is the collapse of the characters' universe due to someone from the previous universe disturbing with the amount of matter their current universe has. There is a scene explaining this sci-fi stuff in depth.
Not shown explicitly, but a character has their arm up to their elbow amputated due to an accident. It happens off-screen, and the character is shown bandaged.
Not explicitly shown on screen. There is a downcast character shown with multiple bottles aroundm implying that they might have abused alcoholical drinks.
Some scenes take place at a bar. While none of the drinks are explicitly said to be alcoholic, it's likely the case. There is no abuse of alcohol, though.
