violence
People are supernaturally compelled to commit acts of brutal violence, including murder and cannibalism. In one scene, a pregnant woman kills another person with an axe and then repeatedly strikes her own face with the blade. Other people’s heads are bludgeoned, resulting in gory injuries. A possessed dog suddenly attacks a small child and is briefly seen dragging and shaking the her limp body, without visible injury detail.
threat and horror
There are disturbing scenes of strong horror and threat in which frightened adults and children are menaced and attacked by people infected by a supernatural presence, or become infected themselves.
language
There is use of strong language (‘motherf**ker’, ‘f**k’). Milder terms include ‘shit’, ‘asshole’ and ‘bastard’.
sex
Infrequent moderate sex references include a use of the term ‘f**k’ in the sexual sense.
discrimination
While taunting its prospective victims, an evil being makes brief discriminatory comments, including referring to an autistic teenager as 'broken'.
injury detail
A person inhabited by a demonic presence is shown tearing off and eating pieces from a shapeless bloody mass implied to be the remains of a child. Further grisly images include gory wounds, severed body parts, intestines, and possessed corpses covered in blood. Another victim of possession is depicted as grotesquely bloated and covered in red tumorous growths.
nudity
There is brief comic nudity in a non-sexual context.
