THE STRAYS is a British horror thriller in which a woman who has escaped her past begins to unravel when some strangers arrive in town.
violence
A man holds a plastic bag over a teenager's head as another teenager smashes his face with a ball. In another scene a man's bones are heard cracking when a man forces him to lift very heavy weights at knife point. There is also a scene of domestic abuse when a woman repeatedly hits her teenage son with a slipper. There are verbal references to a character's ex-partner being 'dangerous'.
threat and horror
There is a menacing tone throughout as a woman becomes increasingly frightened by the arrival of two strangers in her small town. In a sustained scene of strong threat, a family home is invaded and the residents are emotionally and physically terrorised.
language
The film features strong language ('f**k'). There are also peer-to-peer uses of racial language ('n***a' and 'negro').
additional issues
There are references to a mixed raced woman rejecting her black heritage and wishing she was white. In one scene a white man comments on how 'ethnic' looking a teenager's braids are; however the film does not endorse racism or discrimination. In a scene of drug misuse, two young men smoke cannabis together. In another scene, a teenager is shown getting drunk. A scene of moderate sex includes brief thrusting and moaning detail; with no sight of nudity.
