A man practices corporal mortification in a few scenes that includes: tightening a cilice (a barbed metal strap) around one of his thighs; we see him remove it from one leg and see skin being tugged and blood seeping from the wounds, and see him strap it to the other leg and pulling to cause the hooks to dig into his skin and blood pours from the wounds. He is also seen whipping himself on the back with a knotted rope that may incorporate small hooks (the rope tears the skin on his back, we see it pull up and blood seeps from the open wounds).
In several scenes, we are shown the bloody body of a dead man: we see a bloody bullet hole in his abdomen and a pool of blood on the floor next to him, as well as a pentagram made out of blood on his chest.

We see a few sequences of battles where men on horseback ride into villages and battle with swords: we see a man stabbed through the chest and through his bed (we see the bloody sword push through the bottom of the bed), and we see a man tied to a stake and burning (he thrashes and smoke billows around him). We see what look like riot scenes where people fight in streets: a man is dragged by the arms and branded on the face with a hot iron, and another man is speared through the chest and lifted into the air (we see blood on his chest).
A man holds a gun to a man's head, punches another man in the face (he falls to the floor), and shoots at a man and a woman as they run away.

We hear about people being "butchered by the church." We hear about a boy being trapped in a well overnight and having to tread water to stay alive (we see a couple of sequences where the boy struggles to try to climb the wall of the well). A woman tells a man that his god does not forgive murderers but rather burns them. We hear about witch hunts and the Inquisition and we see women being drowned and others in cages being taken to stakes where they would be burned.
A man looks at a photo of a dead body (we see just a flash of the image and can make out blood and grey-tinged flesh). A man cuts himself shaving (we see blood on his face and a trickle in the sink).
A woman gives birth (we see her scream and struggle and see the infant covered with slime and blood). A man is poisoned and we see him gag and gasp and fall to the ground dead.
A woman drives in reverse through crowded streets for an extended period of time, and she drives up onto sidewalks and is nearly squeezed between two trucks. A man drives a truck with three passengers through thick woods, and away from the police that are trying to catch them (a tree branch breaks the windshield).
A man suffers from claustrophobia and we see him sweating and being very anxious in confined spaces. An elderly woman is frightened when shutters on her window blow closed. We see a young girl running away from a man and she appears upset and frightened.
A man driving says, "I could run them over" about being tempted to run down people who try to prevent them from passing. Police speed in cars while chasing people in several scenes.
