It was based on an original story and screenplay by Derek Kolstad, so not a graphic novel (or series).

In terms of the violence and 15 certificate, the BBFC only seem to issue 18 certificates when there is strong sex or sexual violence in the film/TV series. I'm really looking forward to Chapter 2 because I thought the first one was a superbly executed action revenge thriller.
