If you're a Christian, you may want to read some reviews before seeing it. Here are two:

Apparently there's a good deal of graphic sex and the violence is over the top.

Of course, this is America, and you're free to do what you want to do.

The sex isn't that graphic and some of the violence, while gory, was stylized to make it look more like the graphic novel sprung to life.

I saw it twice. Still haven't grown horns and a tail...

With all due respect neither of these two reviews actually "get" the film. Superficial view at best.

The violence is there but it is stylized..not realistic at all...as are the scenes depicting sexuality *apart from the "rape" scene --and as we know the perp gets his just desserts).

ultra extreme violence progressing from babies thrown off a cliff to children being toughened by being beaten, whipped, and slugged, wolf attacks young man, woman slapped, extreme battle violence with blood spurting and bodies cut, tremendous amount of body parts, nightmarish violence, grotesque creatures; extreme sex in orgy scene like out of a pornographic magazine, with homosexual, transgender and lesbian content, plus implied and depicted fornication; lots of upper female nudity, rear male nudity, upper male nudity; drinking; and, treachery, treason, bribery, cruelty.
Thanks for the warning. I wasn't planning on seeing it anyway, but this is good to know.
