violence
Moderate violence includes undetailed gunfire and punches. One person briefly attempts to smother another with a pillow.
threat and horror
A group of soldiers at an isolated outpost succumb to panic, paranoia and mutual suspicion after learning they may be being watched by an unseen enemy. There are scenes of knife threat and aggressive behaviour, as well as unsettling sequences in which people speak in distorted voices. A man experiences a violent seizure.
language
There is infrequent use of very strong language (‘c**t’), as well as more frequent use of strong language (‘f**k’, ‘motherf**ker’). Milder terms include ‘prick’, ‘pussy’, ‘shit’ and ‘arse’.
discrimination
There is infrequent use of the discriminatory term ‘retarded’. Discrimination is not condoned by the film as a whole.
drugs
A person smokes drugs from a pipe. There are also occasional verbal and visual references to misuse of drugs such as methcathinone and marijuana.
suicide and self-harm
Occasional non-graphic references to suicide include scenes in which people point imaginary weapons at themselves, believing them to be real.
theme
People start to exhibit symptoms of mental illness such as paranoia and delusions due to the stress of their situation.
