violence

People are slashed and beaten, and there are fight scenes which includes crunchy and repeated blows. There are also scenes in which throats are cut, with blood spurts in the aftermath of violence.

threat and horror

There are sustained scenes of threat, which include men being stalked and menaced with weapons, and there are also jump scares. Some of the extended threat has a sadistic edge.

language

There is infrequent use of strong language ('f**k'), accompanied by other milder terms ('shit', 'balls' and 'Jesus').

sex

There is a prolonged sex scene which lacks nudity and strong detail.

discrimination

There is homophobic behaviour, including use of discriminatory language ('faggot' and 'princess'). However, this is clearly not condoned.

sexual violence and sexual threat

A man briefly spies on another showering.

injury detail

There is wound detail, some shown in close-up, and which includes brief sight of a cut on a man's chest after another man slashes him with a straight razor. There is also sight of of blood on bodies.

nudity

There is male full frontal and buttock nudity, but not in a sexualised context.

flashing/flickering lights

This work contains flashing images which may affect viewers who are susceptible to photosensitive epilepsy.

additional issues

A concealed man briefly looks at another man showering; however, there is no subsequent assault. There is infrequent strong language ('f**k'), milder terms (for example, 'shit', 'Jesus'), and discriminatory language ('faggot', 'princess') which is challenged and not condoned by the work as a whole. There is also brief male buttock and genital nudity within a non-sexual context.
