violence
There are scenes in which a building's occupants are attacked by the spider. In one scene, a character is dragged into an air vent and attacked off-screen, accompanied by a large gush of blood. In another scene, the spider enters a person's mouth. She briefly vomits blood before the creature moves down through her body, pulsing inside her throat and torso before pushing a claw out of her stomach, accompanied by blood in the aftermath.
threat and horror
There are sustained scenes of horror in which a spider rapidly grows in size as it stalks human and animal prey. These scenes also include those in which terrified humans are dragged through air vents before they are encased in giant cocoons. There are occasional jump scares in scenes in which the spider leaps out at its victims.
language
Strong language ('motherf**ker', 'f**k', 'puta madre') occurs, as well as milder terms ('bitch', 'coño', 'puta', 'shit', 'bullshit', 'piss', 'ass', 'God', 'Jesus', 'damn', 'hell').
sex
A person looks at an eviscerated dead parrot and says "It looks like it tried to have sex with a blender".
injury detail
Injuries include close-ups of heavily cut and bloodstained humans and eviscerated animals, as well as brief sight of wound detail.
theme
Scenes of emotional upset include those in which a child's stepfather tells her that her father is deliberately neglecting her. This results in an argument between the child's mother and stepfather. Some scenes feature an elderly character who appears to be suffering from dementia.
flashing/flickering lights
