From Hell (2001)

R (US) | USA, UK, Czech Republic | English | 122 min

Directed by: Albert Hughes, Allen Hughes

It is 1888 in London, and the unfortunate poor lead horrifying lives in the city's deadliest slum, Whitechapel. Harassed by gangs and forced to walk the streets for a living, Mary Kelly and her small group of companions trudge on through this daily misery, their only consolation being that things can't get any worse. Yet things somehow do when their friend Ann is kidnapped and they are drawn into a conspiracy with links higher up than they could possibly imagine. The kidnapping is soon followed by the gruesome murder of another woman, Polly, and it becomes apparent that they are being hunted down, one by one. Sinister even by Whitechapel standards, the murder grabs the attention of Inspector Fred Abberline, a brilliant yet troubled man whose police work is often aided by his psychic abilities. Abberline becomes deeply involved with the case, which takes on personal meaning to him when he and Mary begin to fall in love. But as he gets closer to the truth, Whitechapel becomes more and more dangerous for Abberline, Mary, and the other girls. Whoever is responsible for the grisly acts is not going to give up his secret without a fight. Will they be able to survive the avenging force that has been sent after them from Hell?

A few scenes in a morgue show many dead bodies covered with sheets.

In a morgue, a man lifts a sheet off a victim to expose her wounds. Flies buzz about, and a man vomits and faints from what he sees.

A woman is slammed against a brick wall and threatened with an ice pick pointed at her eye.

A man grabs a woman, and she screams and flails.

A man holds a knife to a man's throat and threatens him.

A man holds a knife to a woman's clothed breast.

A bloody kidney is shown a box.

Strong, violent scenes throughout. Some are presented as opium-induced hallucinations.

A man's tears open a woman's dress, stabs her repeatedly and slashes her throat.

A woman walks down a dark alleyway. Struggling can be heard alongside flashes of hands and blood. We later see the woman lying dead with lots of blood at her crotch area (covered by her dress) and a gaping neck wound.

Another woman walking down a dark street is grabbed and pulled into a heavily shadowed doorway; we see the glint of a blade as it strikes her several times and we hear crunching noises as it enters her body.

A woman goes down an alley with a man, he pulls a knife, she hits him and runs but is tackled by another man who holds her while the first man slashes her throat (we clearly see the wound gaping open and bleeding).

A man murders a woman and we see blood spurting from the wounds.

A woman's throat is slashed very quickly with a metallic noise and blood pours out of the wound, and we see a woman being slashed with a knife and she screams.

A room is covered with splattered blood.

Several scenes show autopsy photos with roughly stitched neck wounds.

A woman is strapped onto an operating table and wheeled into an observation room where a lobotomy is performed by striking her in the head three times with a hard tool and a hammer; we see her later with big scars on her forehead and milky eyes (a similar procedure is performed on a man).

A man is kicked out of a moving carriage and his head ends up getting entangled in the wheel causing the carriage to tip over.

A coffin breaks open at a funeral and we see the corpse with a bloody, stitched up neck wound.

A man lies dead, presumably from an opium overdose, with his eyes open.

A man hits a woman across the head with a heavy pan, and a man slams a man against a wall twice and grabs him by the throat.

Two men grab a woman, one holds her while the other threatens her with a knife and cuts the buttons off her dress.

A man holds a gun on a man, and a man is hit in the head with a stick knocking him out.

A mob marches through a street with torches, apparently threatening merchants, tradesmen and Jews. We see some blood in a wash basin, a man eats a piece of very bloody meat and pours himself some red wine (although it looks very thick and could be something else) and drinks it, and we see bloody surgical tools and gloved hands.

A group of men barge into a room where a man and woman are having sex. The men grab the woman and drag her out in the street wrapped in a sheet and then follow with a man, who's also wrapped in a sheet.

A man kneels blindfolded while another man pokes his chest with a sword (some blood trickles). A barrel is ignited, rolled toward two men and it explodes.

A man is tripped, falls to the ground, is picked up, slammed against a wall and punched in the stomach (he bleeds from the mouth).

A group of women yell at each other and one throws something which breaks a window.

We see a portrait of a surgery with a group of men tearing at a patient's organs. A man hits a man in the face to wake him. We see a man with a large scar across his eye and down his cheek.

A man urinates in an alley and we hear the trickle. A group of women are shown in a cage. A very dirty man sits on a curb and quakes. A man talks about his wife and child having died during childbirth

A man backhand slaps a woman and insults her and her friends.

A man is roughly slapped by another man.

A man is threatened with a knife.
