violence
Strong violence includes a sadistic killer suffocating vulnerable victims using a pillow and a plastic bag. There is also a bloody stabbing and a man attempting to strangle a woman.
threat and horror
Sequences include strong supernatural threat and unsettling horror throughout. In one scene, an unknown force attempts to drown a woman. Another moment sees a woman choke on a ball of hair ominously hidden in her drink.
sexual violence and sexual threat
There are flashback scenes of implied child sexual abuse in which a terrified girl hides in a wardrobe from her abusive grandfather and complicit grandmother.
additional issues
Use of infrequent strong language occurs ('f**k') as well as milder terms such as 'shit', 'bugger', 'screw' and 'God'. There is a scene of brief sexual threat in which a woman finds photographs of herself on a man's computer that were taken without her knowledge. References are made to dementia.
