violence
There are bloody shootings, including sight of a man being shot in the head at close range. A man is dragged from his bed while engaging in sex and strangled. There is a scene in which dead bodies are put into a wood chipper in order to be disposed of. A man kicks a naked woman in the buttocks as she flees a motel room.
language
There is strong language ('motherf**ker', 'f**k'), accompanied by milder terms ('cock', 'son of a bitch', 'shit', 'asshole', 'Jesus', 'Christ', 'God', 'hell', 'damn' and 'jerk').
sex
There are scenes of strong sex, including a sequence of group sex. There is some brief buttock and genital nudity.
injury detail
There are frequent bloody images as a result of violence. This includes blood sprays and sight of gore when bodies are disposed of in a wood chipper. Bloody welts appear on a man's back after he is repeatedly struck with a belt. A frozen, decomposing body features in one scene as cops inspect a crime scene.
additional issues
There are also scenes of threat when two men invade a woman's home and hold her hostage.
