violence
A woman slams a teenage girl's head against a door. People are grabbed and dragged by a monstrous creature; a man stabs this creature several times with a sharp length of wood.
threat and horror
There are sustained sequences of strong supernatural threat and suspense, as a shadowy creature stalks people, including young children, in their home; it is implied this creature has previously killed several children. A teenage girl is knocked over and a tendril forcibly enters her mouth in a brief dream sequence. She is later pinned down by the creature which then attaches thin tendrils to her face and mouth which quickly weaken her.
language
There is infrequent strong language ('f**k') and milder terms which include 'bitch', 'shit', 'jerk', 'screw', 'God', 'damn' and 'Jesus'.
drugs
There are scenes of teenagers smoking a marijuana joint, but this experience does not have a positive outcome.
suicide and self-harm
There are undetailed verbal references to suicide. We briefly see a dead man hanging by the neck, but it is not clear whether he has taken his own life or is the victim of a supernatural attack.
injury detail
We glimpse a character being ripped apart by a monstrous creature, with fleeting sight of blood. A teenage girl slips on what looks like a pool of blood seeping from a doorway; it is later implied to be red paint. We occasionally see dark patches of what seems to be blood on flooring. A man's leg is injured, with brief sight of blood, and he is left with cuts and scratches over his face.
theme
There are verbal references to Sudden Infant Death Syndrome and the death of children. People grieve lost loved ones. There is a brief, undetailed reference to schizophrenia. A teenage girl experiences bullying behaviour from fellow school pupils.
