violence
Scenes of violence are strong and impactful, including a child bludgeoning a man to death, use of improvised weapons such as bleach and hammers, as well as gun and knife violence. A man is emotionally and physically abusive towards a child, and there are verbal references to him being abused in the past.
threat and horror
There are sustained scenes of threat throughout as a family slowly realise they are unsafe. Adults and children are both subjected to prolonged threat, including gun threat, and a home-invasion scenario.
language
There is infrequent very strong language ('c**t') and use of strong language ('f**k') along with milder terms including 'shit', 'bullshit', 'dick', 'bastard', 'bloody', 'Jesus', 'hell', and 'God'.
sex
A couple discuss role-play, and then proceed to act out a scenario including implied fellatio in a private restaurant, shocking their friends. There are also references to sex, sexting, a woman being sent a picture of a man's penis, and audio suggesting a couple are having sex in the next room.
drugs
Adults share a joint, and there are occasional references to cannabis growing and dealing.
sexual violence and sexual threat
It is implied a young girl may be forced into a union with an adult man.
