I loved this movie. It is great for a first scary movie, I think. The violence consists of photographs of dead bodies of people that have committed suicide (hangings, gunshots, drownings, sliced throats), A lady's ghost jumping out of a window, a bloodied hand, Kicking a zombie like creatures head until it crumbles, peril and disturbing images/elements, a little girl dissolving into dust, and some other images that could be considered inapropriate. Language is a little bit iffy, including strong curses like f*ck, sh*t, and a**hole, plus some milder words along the lines of d*mn, h*ll, a**, and b*tch. No sexual content to be concerned about. Mike drinks like crazy and smokes a bit also. I rate this OFF for 11 and under, IFFY for 12, and ON for ages 13 and older.
