There was a scene that I initially mistook for possible sexual assault, but which was actually just there protagonist struggling to not be crushed against a wall by an alien life-form. The creature does not appear to have genitals and the character appears to be unharmed and with her clothes intact after the struggle.

No smothering, choking, or strangulation are depicted. A character is pulled underwater, but underwater action is not shown and lack of oxygen is not emphasized.

A character's lower jaw is torn off when she's mauled to death. Also potentially disturbing though not tooth damage specifically: several creatures and what remains of a human corpse have lower jaws that look creepily protruded. A crocodile has too many rows of teeth.

Not really? Close to the end one character is shown to no longer have eyes(implied a mutation from the shimmer), but it's not at all graphic, and the scene is pretty dim so it's honestly fairly easy to miss.

The main character has a somewhat self sacrificial mindset when entering the shimmer, as she is willing to enter a place no one has come back from for her husband, but she doesn't actually die. But!! In the bear scene, a character that is already very wounded draws the bear away from the others, and dies because of it.

The male lead commits suicide with the use of a phosphorus grenade. Another character essentially gives up on living. She states that she no longer wishes to escape or fight and walks off-screen as plant-like structures erupt from her arms. When the protagonist rounds the corner after her, she has become indistinguishable from the surrounding plant life.

A main character is dragged underwater by a mutated crocodile and a great deal of underwater thrashing is seen, but when she emerges from the water she doesn’t cough up water or demonstrate any other signs of having almost drowned.

Two gory character deaths; one is killed by a bear off-screen, though her mutilated body is later shown. Another is killed later in the film by the same bear, this time on-screen; very graphic and bloody death scene.

Primarily against animals, a mutated crocodile and bear-like creature. Both are graphic, but especially the death of the bear. It’s truly gratuitous.
