i see this as a kind of? there are points in the movie where, regardless of the twist and context of what’s happening, the mother hits, yells and attempts to humiliate Elias and later on it seems like he almost chooses to listen to her or free her when she “apoligises”.
The cats body is found at 39:30 and the boys lay on the ground with it with it at 39:50, skip to 40:05 to miss the scene. The cats body is floating in the liquid at 40:35, left in the living room for the mother to see. The scene ends around 41:33 after the mom dumps cockroaches in with the cats body. Got a little wordy here but 39:30-41:33 features the dead cat until the body and liquid is used as fuel for the fire in the 1:25:00 range and is zoomed in on while on fire from 1:29:30 to 1:29:50
The boys keep a lot of cockroaches in a tank and they're seen throughout the movie. In some scenes they're crawling into someone's mouth and out of cuts in their body
The mother is bound to a bed and the twins torture her. They burn a hole into her face, glue her mouth together and then cut it open with scissors, grind into her gums with tooth floss, and a few less gruesome tortures
It depends on your definition of "excessive," but there is some blood and depictions of injuries. However, it isn't like some super gory movies, like the Friday the 13th and Saw series.
SPOILER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Lukas is actually dead and it is not revealed How he died until the end of the film.
This page was supposed to be for the original (2014) film. The poster and description were changed to the 2022 movie, but the year still says 2014. These comments must be about the remake. Nobody vomits in the original.
the mom and one of the twins have some questionable and rather violent trauma responses and coping skills but it's only revealed that those are from probably ptsd at the end of the movie
there’s a few scenes including the kids playing outside as the mum looks out from a window, the mum changing her bandages in the bathroom while Elias sneaks up and peers through the door and the mum walking into the woods while the twins stare off a balcony at her leaving.
When the boys follow the meowing sound, they enter an old mass grave, stepping over piles of bones. Not antisemitism, but combined with setting (Austria), the visual might be triggering
Yes, the mother has her mouth glued shut and then cut open with scissors, resulting in bleeding. The boys have a dream of cutting her abdomen open vertically, but you can't see much gore as a result of all of the cockroaches inside her. The boys fist fight and have nosebleeds
