Message
2/5

The movie ultimately asks viewers to consider whether the potential greater good is worth a painful sacrifice. Is Melanie a monster, or does she have a right to live? Who gets to decide who lives and who dies?

Role model
2/5

Helen is the movie's best role model. She shows kindness and empathy toward children who elicit fear and hate from other adults. It's her treatment of Melanie that allows Melanie to believe she has something worth living for.

Violence
4/5

Extreme zombie gore, including shooting, biting, fighting, blood splatters, and bloody wounds, some of it centered around kids. Child zombies attack and kill people, with gore. Soldiers point guns at children. Kids eat worms, a cat, and a bird. Hitting a zombie on the head with a fire extinguisher (part of skull comes off). Stabbing. Zombies lick spilled blood. Kids fight with baseball bat. Hitting, fighting. Painful wounds. Peril and danger.

Sex
1/5

A man looks at a magazine in a store; nothing is shown, but it's implied that it's an "adult" magazine.

Language
4/5

Fairly frequent use of "f--k" and "f--king," plus uses of "Jesus f---ing Christ," "s--t," and "Jesus Christ" (as an exclamation). Soldiers use "friggin' abortions" to describe the children; one child repeats it several times.

Drugs
1/5

Brief social drinking.
