violence
There are bloody stabbings and throat slashings, as well as strangling. A man cuts open the flesh on his head in order to use the blood to conceal his identity; the same man also smashes his head against glass to intimidate onlookers. Verbal references are made to the historic murder spree of a serial killer.
threat and horror
Characters are chased, restrained and threatened with murder. People try to escape a killer through secluded, dark corridors in sequences of sustained tension.
language
There is infrequent very strong language ('c**t') and strong language ('f**k', 'motherf**ker') as well as milder terms which include 'shit', 'piss', 'crap', 'arse', 'bloody', 'God', 'damn' and 'hell'.
sex
There are brief strong verbal references to sex, including to necrophilia. A couple kiss passionately and undress; it is implied they then have sex.
injury detail
A corpse is shown with a bloody injury where it has been scalped. There are blood splashes and bloodied corpses in the aftermath of violence. Medical students conduct studies on human dead bodies, revealing sight of bone and muscle.
additional issues
References are repeatedly made to a woman's suicide, but they lack graphic detail. A man is addicted to unspecified pills, following traumas experienced decades earlier. A woman forces a kiss on a man who is unable to consent or protest. Undetailed verbal references are made to child sexual abuse. There is use of discriminatory terms such as 'loony' to refer to people with mental health concerns. Characters grieve for lost loved ones and there are verbal references to illness such as cancer.
