- The Fox is fine the whole movie.
- When the man comes back from hunting, he has a dead deer, you don't see much but you see the body and some blood.
- When Gawain leaves the castle near the end, he finds a dead boar in the forest.

Not shown, but Winifred's spirit tells the story of her murder by a man who tried to rape her. Could be upsetting to those affecting by sexual assault.

Not sure if it counts as amputation per say, but there are at least two graphic beheadings shown and this is a central element of the plot

While there is no purposeful self harm Gawain accidentally cuts his wrists while trying to escape. This happens after he is tied up and makes his way over to his sword.

Not too graphic, shows blood. The baby is taken away moments later, could potentially be triggering as well.
