violence
Scenes include gunfights and the implied severing of a man's fingers, with resultant bloody detail. In one sequence, a man probes a victim's gunshot wounds to interrogate him.
language
There is occasional use of strong language ('f**k', 'motherf**ker').
sex
Sequences include thrusting during intercourse and implied masturbation. There are occasional moderate sex references.
additional issues
There are occasional scenes of full frontal female nudity, including in a sexual context. There are occasional scenes of moderate threat. Infrequent scenes of homophobic and racist behaviour also occur, but the work does not condone or endorse such attitudes. There is a scene in which it is implied a cat has been killed and is then seen being eaten by the creature. However, there is no sight of animal cruelty on screen and no evidence any animal was harmed.
