violence
Strong violence includes stabbings and slashings with knives and swords as well as shootings; the impacts of these attacks are largely hidden from view. There is hand-to-hand fighting with crunchy punches, kicks, shoves, strangling and wrestling-style throws. Characters are struck over the head with heavy implements and others have their heads slammed against walls and tables.
threat and horror
A man is gagged and chained to a wall after being beaten, screaming in fear that he will be tortured or killed. We see captured characters threatened with death. There is gun, knife and sword threat.
language
There is strong language ('motherf**ker', 'f**k') and milder terms which include 'prick', 'shit', 'piss', 'dickhead', 'asshole', 'bastard', 'hell' and 'damn'.
drugs
Characters are seen taking a fictional illegal drug in pill form; we also see people high on the effects of these pills. There are verbal references to drug misuse, along with scenes involving the dealing and production of these pills.
injury detail
We see the bloodied faces of a tortured man and several dead bodies, with one lying in a pool of blood. There is sight of blood splatter over walls, faces and clothes in the aftermath of violence. Crime scene photos occasionally show glimpses of injury detail on dead bodies, including cuts and bruising.
rude humour
A man collapses to the floor after being punched, making farting sounds as he appears to lose control of his bowels.
flashing/flickering lights
This work contains flashing images which may affect viewers who are susceptible to photosensitive epilepsy.
