Monica is everything that you expect from a archetypal horror female; she’s blonde, she smokes, she drinks, and she has sex with Steve. She gets hit with a chainsaw and killed by Glen. For a victim she makes it quite far towards the ending of the film and she gets killed in the last hurdle when they are then escaping to get onto the boat. This scene is one of the goriest out of the film. They had to push the graphic violence further in this film to appeal to modern audiences, although it is an action horror they have managed to get body horror into this well and it works. This close up shot of Ana’s arm shows the pain and the chainsaw going into her arm to show what has actually happen. This happens quite a lot through this film because the other scene with a lot of body horror is the scene where the guts are being ripped out of the body and you see the zombies eating them. This shows how the censorship has relaxed, films like Silent Hill is another film that shows the relaxation of censorship because as it is only rated a 15 it still shows and contains scenes of graphic violence.
