• (Deleted. Personal opinions about ratings are not appropriate for the Parents Guide.)
• The adrenochrome scene is easily the most frightening part in the film
• The film is often bizarre and surreal. The realistic effects of drug-use are sometimes shown in a intense and explicit fashion.
• The film depicts two characters who are stoned, high, and drunk out of their minds. The films shows the deteriorating effects of drug abuse. The story is taken from their point of view, so some viewers could find this disconcerting or intense. The film is intended to be a "trip" for the audience.
• Several bizarre scenes include Hunter/Raoul imagining people as lizards that are covered with blood. He starts to feel faint and sees many different hallucinations. All of them can be unsettling in spite of the lighthearted undertone.
• His lawyer threatens to kill him twice while under the influence of acid and cocaine (this is meant to be funny).
• A scene where Gonzo is in the bathtub high on several drugs and tells Hunter to throw a cassette player in the tub to electrocute him to death (he doesn't).
• A scene, in which Gonzo suddenly starts yelling out supposedly from cardiac issues, whilst Raoul frantically fires off drug-related suggestions to help him.
• The scene where Gonzo threatens a woman is fairly intense. He talks in a slow and intimidating manner.
• The movie isn't that scary, but it can be unsettling. The trips are not suggested for the faint of heart, as they sometimes involve insane and off-the-wall situations.
