In my opinion? nope!

But then again I am also of the opinion that the scene with the mouse in the Abyss woulldn't classify as such either.. and yet it repeatedly does when the submissions hit the desks at the BBFC. The same goes for horse falls and supposed dog fights in nearly 50 year old episodes of Lassie that are cut for video submission.

I'm not responsible for how they decide upon their definitions.

If they choose to determne that any scene where an animal is hurt or killed as the result of a violent act being carried out against it by another party, regardless of species, then who am I to say any different. The end result is the same whether it be Inferno, The Abyss or any of the ultra-violent titles listed elsewhere on these pages.
