It's a horror movie revolving around a female protagonist who is stalked and attacked, so that kind of comes with the territory. It's also worth mentioning, as this might be particularly hard to watch for some, that the second person who dies on screen is a Black woman and her death is quite brutal and takes place in a public space where people don't come to her rescue because they falsely assume it's a publitcity stunt, not a real murder happening.

someone falls from a balcony but was already injured, its hard to tell what exactly they died from but if you find this triggering then it will probably need skipping (spoilers ahead)
the blonde sorority girl will be chased by ghostface through the house, once he throws her through the balcony window he will stab her a couple times - this is where you should skip about a minute or two

A character clings to the hood of a car which crashes into a parked truck carrying metal pipes. One of the pipes goes into his skull and passes through his eye. The body is shown from side views and it is mentioned that the pipe went through his eye but a close shot of his face is not shown.
Another charcter is shot, and a close up of his eyes is shown. You can see blood pooling in his eyes but the eye itself is not outwardly injured.

Actually, yeah. Gets stabbed in the face, in a bathroom, pretty graphic really. 2nd victim is a black woman, stabbed multiple times in a crowded theater while screaming for help, no one realizes it's serious until she's already dead. Another black woman is stabbed later in the movie.
