violence
A young boy murders adults and other children. For example, he electrocutes a woman while she is in the bath, bludgeons a man with a baseball bat, and does nothing to save a young girl from drowning in a pool. He later stabs a woman with a shard of glass and kills a man with a bow and arrow. It is also implied that the boy kills a cat, though this occurs off-screen.
threat and horror
There are scenes of sustained threat in which characters are menaced by a murderous child.
injury detail
The film features some bloody images in the aftermath of violence, as well as the sight of a man’s charred corpse after he is electrocuted.
additional issues
A child self-harms by pricking his arm with a drawing pin, though the depiction lacks bloody detail. There are undetailed verbal references to a child's abusive upbringing. Bad language includes uses of ‘son of a bitch’, ‘crap’, ‘shit’ and ‘ass’.
