• A soldier's jaw is ripped off by a zombie. Quite graphic.
• A woman's neck is snapped and part of her spine sticks out. Pretty graphic.
• A man is thrown around and mauled by a zombified tiger. His mangled face is seen up close for a few seconds before the skull is ripped open by the tiger's jaws. Skull insides like brain, tongue, bone and tissue are briefly seen.
• A man saws a zombie woman's head off. We hear it screaming and gurgling until its head falls off. The head is still alive.
• A LOT of zombies are shot, however most of the shots (Even when shot from a distance by characters wielding guns for the first time) are to the head with much blood and some gore flying after the bullet impact.
• Many people get bitten by zombies. The scenes are mostly with a lot of blood and flesh getting ripped off. Sometimes it's mediocre like in most zombie films, but there are some more graphic instances.
• A character's arm gets broken with bone sticking out.
• A character gets impaled on a wall through the shoulder after a long spike is hurled by a zombie.
• A few zombies get killed with a large circular saw. Not overtly gory but very bloody.
• MANY skeletons and dead, semi-rotted humans / zombies throughout the entire film, but they are mostly in the background and never focused upon. Not gory.
• A zombie rips into another zombie's abdomen to take out a fetus. It happens below the screen, but you can see the zombified fetus briefly.
• A character gets punched in the face and spits blood.
• A soldier shoots a zombie to shreds with a heavy machine gun. The scene is long and over-the-top but still very gory.
• A zombie head is dropped from a tall building. The camera follows it splattering on the ground and lingers on the disgusting aftermath for a few seconds.
• A zombie gets shot with poison darts, then riddled with bullets, then is crushed between two compactor walls, all in quick succession. The scene is played for humor but is still pretty gory. Later, two characters pry the walls apart and we see the zombie's guts stuck to the walls.
• A zombie bites through a character's throat and kills them. Very sudden and shocking, also very bloody.
• A character is shot in the thigh by another character and is left for dead. Later, we see the character get dragged away by zombies.

• The "special" zombies are very fast and menacing, especially their leader, and the zombie tiger is terrifying.
• The ending is very emotional and depressing.
• When they are moving through dozens of 'hibernating' zombies could be intense for most viewers.
• The violence in the film is very cartoonish and overall the film has a very comical tone to it, therefore not making it as scary.
