violence
In one scene, a character attacks his partner, beating her and hurling abuse. In another scene, the man turns up unannounced at the woman's house, attempts to force his way inside and is finally compelled to leave after she brandishes a gun. A hooded serial killer attacks a person before her friend shoots the assailant in masked fashion.
threat and horror
A killer stalks potential victims. One of these scenes includes a jump scare as a person is suddenly confronted before fighting off her attacker.
language
Strong language ('f**k') occurs, as well as milder terms ('bitch', 'son of a bitch', 'shit', 'asshole', 'ass', 'piss', 'God', 'damn', 'hell'), and peer to peer use of 'n***a'.
discrimination
A character refers to an encounter with a hostile group of men who verbally abused her after she refused to talk to them. A television report notes disparities between drug addiction and incarceration figures of black men compared to white men. Discrimination is not condoned by the work as a whole.
drugs
There are brief negative verbal references to 'crack' and to death due to drug misuse.
sexual violence and sexual threat
A reporter refers to a murder suspect linked to "assault and attempted rape" offences.
injury detail
A bloodstained corpse is discovered, and there is subsequent sight of blood staining the ground beneath the body.
