violence
A woman is battered and strangled by a man, but without strong detail. In different scenes, two men are subjected to the frantic stamping of their genitals by a woman. There are also moments of moderate violence.
threat and horror
Strong supernatural threat includes menace from a witch-like entity which is capable of changing form, and the vengeful spirit of a woman terrorising a priest in a church as he attempts to recite prayers over the coffin containing her dead body. There are also scenes of moderate threat.
suicide and self-harm
There is sight of a bandage on a woman's wrist, with an ambiguous suggestion of an attempted suicide.
nudity
A woman is seen with bare breasts as she lies in a bath and attempts to seduce her maid. A painting of a woman portrays her with exposed breasts and pubic hair as she reclines in a sexualised pose. There is also brief sight of a man's injured and misshapen genitals in a non-sexual context.
theme
There are undetailed references to an incestuous relationship between a father and his adult daughter.
additional issues
There is infrequent moderate sex and sex references. There is infrequent mild bad language ('shit').
