In a way. The first half of the movie misleads who the true abuser is, but both main characters physical harm the other.

It’s hinted that the leading male character had a cocaine addiction in the past. A different character mocks him by saying “Should I call your sponsor?” when he takes a bump of coke.

Okay, the answer to this is probably no. But about 18 minutes in, there are frozen meats strewn around, including what looks like poultry. It’s only a little jarring because there are live chickens walking around it. It’s not the worst, but I’d have prob looked away had I known, so just FYI.

A woman pretends she was about to be raped. She quickly pulls down her pants so her backside is exposed before the police come in so she can pretend the man tried to rape her. The police woman believes her, the police man doesn't believe her.

Technically, it's CNC (Consentual non-consent) but I assume it's triggering all the same.

There is a scene where an adult couple end up in a motel on their first date. They start to have sex but then the woman appears to change her mind. The man makes her continue anyway, basically telling her she's not allowed to say no. It's fairly graphic. You find out after the scene that they had previously negotiated together that she would tell him to stop, but he would keep going unless she used the safe word of "Mr. Snuffles". So while it wasn't actually rape, it does read that way and was very triggering for me personally.

Somewhat. Off-screen, a character smashes an elderly man’s head with a telephone. We see the aftermath with a bleeding head wound.

Late in the film someone is drugged, restrained, and has shapes carved into their chest over the course of what is implied to be hours. Scene cuts away from the act but the aftermath is shown later.

Because the audience knows a woman (who is actually a murderer) is pretending to be a victim of abuse and attempted rape, we’re meant to side with a policeman who doesn’t believe she was raped & wants to wait before providing aid. We’re also meant to think the policewoman who empathizes with the victim & believes her is, as her partner calls her later, “a dumb bitch”.
So the cop who disbelieves a victim (as far as he knows) is meant to be the rational hero of the situation.

A character says they see demons in place of humans, which is why they’re on a killing spree. In multiple scenes of that character’s POV, the screen glitches quickly to show an image of a demon that’s obviously only in their mind.

Early on, The Lady is using The Man as a tool for her sexual gratification. She convinces him to try consensual-non-consent (CNC) & reveals she’s only aroused by him when he’s being violent toward her. She’s not actually interested in him as a person beyond what he can offer her sexually, and she gets irritated with him when he can’t fulfill her desires.

No nudity, but plenty of racy scenes. A pair planing to have a one-night stand engage in violent foreplay as they agreed to try consensual-non-consent together.
A man restraints a woman by cuffing her to the bed and chokes her by request. Later, he slaps her and threatens to slice her with a knife. This is all part of the CNC sex game, but the Lady uses her safe word before they get naked or have sex.
A character drugs another and straddles them while using a knife to carve initials into their skin. Not entirely clear if the perpetrator is aroused by this act, but it wouldn’t be out of character if it did.

Someone gets on top of someone and carves into their chest with a knife. You don't see much of it as it's mostly shot from behind but you get to see the bloody carving in the chest when it's done.
Someone is shot point blank in the side of their head and at their ear. Blood gushes down their face and from their ear and they run around with lots of blood on their side of their head and ear.
