violence
A man slaps a woman and then repeatedly stabs her with a pair of scissors, causing blood to spurt; most of the stabs are implied, but we see the final one and he goes on to repeatedly stab the bed she lies on. There are shootings and references to implied domestic abuse.
sex
A female performer removes items of clothing during a performance in a strip club, resulting in sight of partial buttock nudity. Verbal references are made to a woman having a dozen sexual partners over the course of a night as a result of scientific experimentation; there are also verbal references to 'hypersexuality' and to semen traces in the context of a crime scene.
injury detail
Blood soaks a murdered woman's clothing and splashes over a water bed; it mixes with water to trickle plentifully over the floor. A man is left with blood over his white suit following a stabbing. There is occasional sight of blood during scenes of a brain surgery procedure.
additional issues
A man behaves erratically and in a threatening manner when he experiences medical episodes. There are verbal references to mental health concerns. A man says a patient is 'out of his skull on thorazine'. There is mild bad language ('shit') along with milder terms which include 'God', 'Jesus', 'Christ' and 'hell'.
