violence
A plastic bag is put over the head of an unconscious character and we see some detail of their subsequent suffocation. There is a montage of murder scenes from other films, which include shootings and neck breaks, with some sight of bloody injury detail. There are comically grisly verbal references to the disposal of murdered bodies. A woman implies her husband behaves in a controlling and abusive way toward her; at one point he aggressively grabs her arm but the incident is interrupted.
threat and horror
There are scenes of gun threat.
language
There is strong language ('f**k', 'motherf**ker') as well as milder terms which include 'bitch', 'slut', 'pussy', 'shit', 'dickhead', 'dick', 'asshole', 'God', 'damn', 'Jesus', 'Christ' and 'hell'.
sex
There are scenes of strong sex which include thrusting and implied oral sex, with brief partial breast nudity. Characters make occasional verbal sex references, often in a comic context.
drugs
There are verbal references to drug dealing and addiction; these occur within the context of a police investigation.
suicide and self-harm
There are verbal references to murders being made to look like suicides, with some moderate detail around technique.
flashing/flickering lights
