HERD is a US action horror thriller film in which a couple on a camping trip intended to save their relationship stumble into a zombie outbreak.

violence
People and zombies are struck by bullets, creating spurts of blood. A woman stabs a zombie’s face with a scalpel. Occasional fragmented flashbacks show a man raging at his daughter, striking her and throwing her out of their home.
threat and horror
Frightened people are attacked by zombies or armed militias during scenes of strong threat and horror. In one scene a young boy witnesses his weeping mother, who has been infected by the zombie virus, being dragged off-screen to be killed.
language
There is use of strong language (‘f**k’). Milder terms include ‘bitch’, ‘shit’, ‘bullshit’, ‘bastard’, ‘pissing’, ‘asshole’, ‘ass’ and ‘son of a bitch’.
discrimination
Short but intense flashbacks show a man reacting aggressively towards his daughter after learning that is a lesbian. A woman in a same sex relationship fears that she and her partner will face homophobic violence after they are taken in by a conservative Christian community during a national crisis, creating an additional undercurrent of threat.
injury detail
There are strong images of dead and injured people covered in blood, and brief grisly sight of bone protruding through flesh after a person breaks their leg. Zombies are depicted with grotesque bloody boils on their skin. A person takes their own life off-screen, resulting in sight of a spray of blood.
A man smirks suggestively at the sight of a woman removing her shirt during a medical emergency. There are also mild upsetting scenes in which a couple struggle to come to terms with the loss of their child.
