threat and horror
There are sustained sequences of threat, including stronger moments such as an entity in the form of a charred corpse bursting into flame and attacking a person, demonic creatures surrounding people, and a sequence implying a girl is held down and branded.
sexual violence and sexual threat
It is implied characters have suffered a history of abuse, including child sex abuse, and later see demonic representations of their abusers.
injury detail
Occasional bloody images include a woman's badly scratched face and body dripping blood, and a wound on a man's face.
There are occasional drug references and moderate sex references, including to promiscuity and masturbation. There are also references to suicide and self-harm, although the acts are not condoned and the person contemplating taking their own life is talked out of the idea. Scenes of discriminatory behaviour include a Native American woman being mocked for her identity and called "Pocahontas", but this behaviour is clearly criticised. Scenes of violence include super-powered beings fighting different monsters, and a girl with claws scratching a woman's face.
