The reptiles (and a couple mammals, a mongoose + a rabbit) are kept in entirely unsuitable habitats. Granted, this is almost certainly reflective of pet care 50 years ago rather than indicative of deliberate neglect on the part of Dr. Stoner.

Dr. Stoner tosses a black mamba into a shower, allowing her to be stepped on and thereby incited into biting Randall.

No, but a guy follows a girl home and sneaks into her bedroom. Also, a teacher is inappropriate with students

There is a skinny-dipping scene from 42:15 to 45:35, although it is not sexually-charged. All intimate areas are concealed by scenery.

From 54:10 to 54:50 a scantily-dressed woman dances provocatively.

Starting at 1:02:05, there is a suggestive poster on the wall of Randall's room. His and the young woman's behavior and state of dress imply recent sexual activity.

Implied recent sexual activity at 1:05:43
