Violence & Gore

Scratchy bangs his head on a dark ride vehicle door, and subsequently gets banged on the head with a giant mallet by Itchy. Scratchy tears a lap bar off his ride vehicle, which decapitates him, and we see his severed head on the floor (no blood visible). Itchy pulls Scratchy's arm out of their ride vehicle, then the vehicle's doors close, and part of his arm gets severed in three places (we see the stump of his arm, revealing muscle and bone). Scratchy gets several giant missiles shot at him, which burn his skin off, and we see his skeleton.
