About 30min in there's a blurry police video of a man killing an animal. Later context implies the animal is a goat but I could easily see someone thinking the animal was a dog. It's a very disturbing approx 2min of the film

The wife is majorly gaslighted, including about a SA (although that is unintentional based on the MC’s understanding of reality)

There's a man who kills animals in ritual sacrifice. We see a blurry video of him killing an animal (later revealed to be a goat), caged chickens, a fridge full of blood and body parts, a bloody tongue presumably from a cow or horse, and more. Basically, once lomax goes downstairs in Harlem to meet his client, just turn away until the next scene.
We also see a ton of meat closeups.

We also see a ton of meat closeups and a brief scene in a chinatown market with piles of dead fish.

See the other comment about the teen in the opener + the MC’s wife is assaulted by the pseudo-antagonist but gaslighted by her husband about it (on accident). She reveals her body as proof and it’s graphic, but the assault itself is not shown.

I would say consent is withdrawn.
Keanu Reeves hallucinates his wife is someone else during sex and changes his speed/ passion and the wife begins to tell him no/ stop and he stops. She asks where he was and he says "right here". She tells him "no you aren't" and they break apart.

Also a scene with a small child with blood and guts all over its hands.
Many closeups of dead animal parts.
