🤬 Profanity
ModerateThe dialogue features moderate use of strong language, including around 10 uses of the F-word, alongside approximately 30 moderate profanities (such as 'shit', 'bitch', 'piss', 'dick', and 'asshole') and occasional milder terms.
🍺 Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

👻 Frightening & Intense Scenes
