These films include scenes of graphic violence, including sight of decapitation and dismemberment, and violence against vulnerable and defenceless people, including restrained people’s throats being cut.

There is also a sequence in which an alien is encountered that has been bisected but which is still alive, with visible entrails coming from its torso. There is additional gory detail when human corpses are seen, both in the game and in the feature films.

The feature films also include some use of discriminatory terms (‘faggot’, ‘homo’).
