violence
A woman is dragged by the hair, strangled and her head forced into a sink. There are also stabbings and shootings.
threat and horror
A woman becomes trapped in a house with a ghostly entity who menaces her and the children in her care. There are frequent jump scares as the ghost moves in and out of sight, and objects move of their own accord.
discrimination
The film flashes back and makes reference to slavery, such as brief images of a lynching, slaves held captive, and a man's back covered in welts. There is use of racist language ('negro') in the context of historical documents. A branding iron and iron head brace also feature in the film. Other references to racism and America's colonial past include a crude fridge magnet of an enslaved woman, nursery rhymes and a woman making her daughter wash her hands in scalding water after she'd come into contact with an enslaved girl.
injury detail
There are bloody images in the aftermath of violence, such as a man whose head is impaled with a shard of glass.
There are brief scenes and references to smoking marijuana. Strong language ('f**k') is used infrequently alongside other moderate ('bitch') and milder terms ('shit', 'ass', 'piss', 'freaking', 'hell', 'God' and 'damn').
