violence
There are scenes of strong violence and threat as a man hunts and kills several people, mostly women. Throat slashings and stabbings are discreet, with certain editing effects obscuring stronger details. Victims are also hit over the head and briefly strangled.
drugs
There are scenes of cocaine snorting, as well as joint smoking. There are also further visual and verbal references to drug taking, including heroin misuse.
injury detail
There are bloody images in the aftermath of violent scenes. In another sequence, there is blood spurts and subsequent bloody clothing after it's implied that a man uses a knife to cut out a baby from its dead mother. All process occurs below frame.
nudity
There are scenes of sexualised female nudity, sometimes in the context of sex and drug misuse.
additional issues
There are scenes in which a man manipulates and mistreats his younger lover. The older man wants to avoid attracting the attention of the law and thus tries to keep his lover under close watch, who seemingly fails to understand the potential consequences. In one scene, the man convinces the younger man that he has committed murder.It is implied with the sound of a gunshot that a man takes his own life. There is moderate bad language ('bitch', 'screw', 'slut'), accompanied by other milder terms ('shit', 'son of a bitch', 'bastard', 'crap', 'ass', 'Jesus', 'Christ', 'God', 'damn', 'hell' and 'jerk').
