violence
Prisoners are tortured via electricity, being made to relive traumatic events of their past so that their fear can be extracted and weaponised. There are scenes of domestic abuse in which a husband is seen and heard being physically and verbally aggressive towards his wife. Other violence includes bloody knife slashings and repeated impactful blows, sometimes with resulting bloodshed. After a corpse is dismembered offscreen, a woman puts an extracted eyeball on ice.
threat and horror
There is threat to captive victims at the hands of a twisted scientist. Lone victims are pursued through the streets at night.
language
There is infrequent use of very strong language ('c**t'), as well as more frequent strong language ('f**k').
discrimination
A Korean-American man is violently assaulted by racist attackers, who call him 'China-boy'.
sexual violence and sexual threat
A teacher is attacked by three of her students, who instruct her to strip. She gains the upper hand before being compelled to do so.
injury detail
A woman drags a scalpel down the side of her nose, leaving strong bloody detail. Her body is revealed to be covered in stitched-up scars.
