I was thinking she meant exactly the kind of help you describe here:

Actually, I might be a little more descriptive than "scary or gross",
since that's kind of vague... more like, "Well, they show slitting
someone's throat, and of a bunch of people who were hung and are dead,
and someone being tortured, and then just his face as he's drawn and
quartered... and there are a lot of fighting scenes."

Although, admittedly, when we watched Braveheart I hadn't seen it either,
so I told her only that Mel Gibson was in it. Then again, I know my kid,
and the only movie that ever bothered her was Gorillas in the Mist, and
that was only because I got Dian Fossey and Jane Goodall mixed up and
kept telling her that she was still alive and nothing was going to happen
to her... urp.
