A character hits his partner during an argument; he's fine afterward, no physical damage is taken, but it happens suddenly.

The majority of the movie is manipulation and insistence from each character that the others are crazy, seeing things, reading too far into situations, etc.

The main characters strangle another man with a rope in the opening scene. The scene is not overly graphic; you see his contorted face for about two seconds and then he goes limp and is dead.

While the story was inspired by a murder case where a 14-year-old boy was killed, the victim in this movie is a 20-something man. We do see the victim's father worrying about his son's disappearance, so it may still be upsetting for viewers who are sensitive to the theme of parents losing a child.

One character is heavily implied to be bisexual, having a female ex (that he gets slightly flirty with) and a current male partner. While otherwise immoral, there's no reason to think that he's a cheater.

A character breaks a glass by squeezing it in his hand, causing a cut, and a small amount of blood is shown. It's out of anxiety but apparently an accident.

Two men are murderers but that doesn't mean they're mentally ill; their decision to murder is due to feeling superior to others.

The idea of being put into a chest like the murder victim at the beginning of the film may be triggering to some viewers. As well, the entirety of the film takes place in one location, which could possibly cause some to feel anxiety

No, but an older woman tells a younger woman to not eat certain foods due to the calories. This is a throwaway line, nothing further is discussed.

The other comment is correct, just adding to clarify that the discussion of eugenics does not get very specific - just the vague idea of (intellectually) superior people who should have the right to kill inferior ones. It's discussed in a somewhat playful way. A character naively claims that this is nothing like what Hitler did. We see the film through the eyes of characters who hold these views, but we're supposed to find them abhorrent and the film doesn't support this perspective.

Implied past relationship between Brandon and Rupert, with Brandon having been a teenager / a very young adult at the time and Rupert being his professor. Pretty easy to just not look at it that way.

A lot of vague sexual innuendos, most likely done on purpose but the kind of things someone could get away with saying in SpongeBob or something.

[SPOILERS] The main characters commit murder (shown in the very first scene) and in the end, it's implied that they are going to be arrested and likely executed. I didn't see it as a sad ending because we're not supposed to sympathise with them.

No one is shot, but it nearly happens and characters are threatened with guns. A gun is fired out the window at the end.
