There is a brief "tape playback" scene showing three female waitresses with revealing outfits presenting food.

Two brief "tape" playbacks of a scene with a couple having sex. Once showing the woman in bra and panties, and later showing the woman's breasts during intercourse, when one of the characters plays back the image stored to pleasure himself.

There is an extended scene where a manufacturing facility is caused to go beserk and destroy itself. Some of this is comical. At one point a guard points a gun at a robotic arm, telling it to stop.

Some mild angry profanity (G-damn several times).

The two main characters are seen drinking wine at a resort.

Dr. Lillian Reynolds (Louise Fletcher) is a chain smoker. At one point she is told, "You smoke too much." It is also implied she developed heart disease as a result of her chronic smoking.

Dr. Reynolds experiences a cardiac arrest and dies. She manages to capture much of the painful and horrific experience on tape as she feels the heart attack coming on. The traumatizing tape is replayed several times, once fatally for a co-worker.

Young Chris Brace steals a peek at his father's human-recording device and unwittingly plays back a mentally and emotionally abusive tape, which throws Chris into a psychotic breakdown.
