violence
Several people are hit by bullets during a shootout, creating spurts of blood. We see another series of blood spurts as a poacher cuts into a live tiger cub with a blade; the cutting process itself is concealed from view, however, and there is no evidence of real animal cruelty. Moderate violence includes crunchy punches and beatings.
language
There is use of strong language (‘f**k’). Milder terms include ‘bastard’ and ‘hell’.
additional issues
There are scenes of moderate threat in which two men are held captive, beaten and threatened with torture. In another scene a man notices a series of cuts on his friend’s wrist and realises she has been self-harming; he encourages her to talk about her problems, and to reach out for help next time she feels the urge to hurt herself. There are verbal references to discrimination against members of the LGBTQ+ community, including acts of violence, murder, forced marriage and imprisonment in conversion camps, driving some to suicide; the episode clearly condemns discrimination. Other issues include upsetting scenes of bereavement.

threat and horror
A brief flashback to a ceremony dedicated to a demonic entity concludes with the ritualistic suicide by fire of a mass of people, which is not presented with gruesome detail. A person has frightening visions of the suicide victims in a cave, with strong burn injuries on their faces and bodies. A demon menaces people, moving with contorted limbs as unsettling noises herald its presence, in scenes of supernatural threat. A dead body is discovered in a tree encased in a cocoon-like substance.
flashing/flickering lights
This work contains flashing images which may affect viewers who are susceptible to photosensitive epilepsy.
additional issues
There are infrequent clear and implied uses of strong language ('f**k'). A man becomes uncomfortable when he discovers that his police partner is a lesbian; the woman tells him that such discriminatory attitudes have meant she has struggled to be open about her sexuality, and has led her to past self-harming. The man regrets his insensitivity and the pair come to a resolution which signals the work's challenging of discrimination. There is a passing reference to a sex worker. There are mild upsetting scenes centred on illness and bereavement.

threat and horror
Sequences of strong horror, with jump scares, include fantastical zombie like beings, mythical creatures and giant insects stalking and threatening characters. A man is seen covered with small, glowing poisonous flies who weave a web over his body. There is a flashback to a community of people, including children, being brainwashed by a demon into taking their own lives, which they do in a fantastical and ritualistic fashion.
additional issues
A prolonged, crunchy fight scene includes repeated blows and characters' heads being slammed against walls. During the fight, a man is accidentally impaled by a beam resulting in bloody aftermath detail and brief sight of the wound; however, the scene is so darkly lit that the injuries are not clearly seen. In the aftermath of a violent car accident, men are seen with small bloody injuries on them. Infrequent use of strong language ('f**k') is accompanied by milder terms such as 'asshole' and 'crap'.
