Parents guide

During a duel sequence, a character is bombarded by several objects. He is shown bloody and bruised as a result.

A man is seen in a cave hanging upside down with some sight of blood on his face. A creature is briefly seen eating some gory remains of another dead creature. The man cuts off the creatures arm with a lightsaber. In the 'Special Edition' and subsequent edition of the film, the creature is briefly seen creature crying out, with sight of the bloody stump where it was injured.

A large fantasy beast keels over and dies due to freezing conditions. A man uses a lightsaber to cut the animal open and puts another man inside to protect him from the elemnts. The animal's white fleshy internal muscle and fat is exposed, but there is no blood.

There is a large battle scene near the beginning of the film, where several uniformed combatants are killed onscreen, or are implied to have been killed. In the battle, there are instances of large robots being brought down and exploding into fireballs, killing their inhabitants.

A pilot's wingman is shot dead by a laser blast from inside their fighter craft. He slumps forward, dead. When the fighter is shot down and crashes, an AT-AT "walker" steps on the remains of the ship, including the dead wingman, while the pilot barley escapes before the ship is crushed.

The back of a man's horribly scarred head (enough to be bald) is briefly shown.

There are two instances whereby Darth Vader telekinetically chokes a man to death. There is no blood, but we see them groan and struggle to breath until they slump over and die. Somewhat intense.

Han is tortured offscreen, though the very first bits of the treatment (the man being placed face-first into a sparking electric device) are depicted. We hear audible screams from the outside of the closed doorway to the torture room.

A number of Imperial stormtroopers are briefly shot with lasers. There is also a scene where Chewbacca knocks a few stormtroopers off a ledge.

Chewbacca chokes Lando out of anger and frustration. We see the man strangling and trying to breath. He eventually releases the character.

Hell is said at 1 point.

Some implied alcohol use in the Cloud City sequences.

Perhaps the darkest and most grim movie in the entire Star Wars franchise other than Revenge of the Sith.

Dagobah is depicted as very foggy, dirty and murky. The scene in the dark underground cave has an especially creepy atmosphere.
