Beasts of the Southern Wild

Movie • 2012 • Drama  

Report
Hushpuppy, an intrepid six-year-old girl, lives with her father, Wink in 'the Bathtub', a southern Delta community at the edge of the world. Wink’s tough love prepares her for the unraveling of the universe—for a time when he’s no longer there to protect her. When Wink contracts a mysterious illness, nature flies out of whack—temperatures rise, and the ice caps melt, unleashing an army of prehistoric creatures called aurochs. With the waters rising, the aurochs coming, and Wink’s health fading, Hushpuppy goes in search of her lost mother.

Drowning of many animals is implied, but not shown. She has a small dog that survives the whole film, though. Dead cow and coyote (? intestines visible and part of jaw missing) shown. At one point some ancient creatures eat one of their own.

They catch a catfish and try to dispatch it by punching it in the head. The fish flops around and is punched repeatedly.

There are many tent caterpillars and a spider eating one. Many insects can be heard through most of the film (crickets, trigs, etc.), as well. Though not insects or arachnids, there are piles of live crayfish and other aquatic invertebrates.

Ambiguous. the father mentions his blood is eating itself, which usually indicates some type of blood or bone cancer. it is not directly referred to as cancer.

A baby cries around minute 6 and then again around 1:19:00. Not sure why people are voting "no".
