violence
There are sequences of violence, such as shootings, impalings, stabbings and slashings with other bladed weapons. A man is set on fire off-screen. Violence occasionally results in bloody detail. Graphic descriptions of the injuries inflicted by a serial killer on his victims are heard in news reports.
threat and horror
People, often women, are stalked and terrorised by a killer known as the 'Night Slasher' who is armed with large bladed weapons. In sustained scenes of threat, shoppers are held hostage in a supermarket by a gunman and a woman becomes trapped in a hospital bathroom whilst trying to escape from a killer.
additional issues
Infrequent use of strong language ('f**k') is accompanied by milder terms such as 'bitch', 'hell' and 'damn'. Brief mentions are made to sexual violence and child sexual abuse. There is sight of sex workers standing outside strip clubs.
