A husband and wife are both plotting to kill each other (she married him with the goal of killing him for his money, he is onto her and plotting her death.) They have a lot of verbal arguments and at one point he grabs her hair. It ends with her trying to kill him and him killing her instead. She also claims he murdered his previous wives but this is not confirmed. There is no one clear victim in this relationship but it is certainly not healthy.

It's....complicated. The film centres around a husband and wife who are both trying to kill each other, there's a lot of back and forth scheming and murder attempts between them, but not a straightforward abused/abuser dynamic.

One of the characters finds an already dead rat in a rat trap and uses it to demonstrate a pool of acid. All that remains of the rat are its bones.

No, but one of the characters is a doctor of medicine who specialises in women's mental health - which may upset someone with history in this field.

There is a "suicide" in the film, as one of the characters is found hanging by her neck by noose. We see this image at least twice.

Not in the autistic sense, no. A woman panics, screams, cries, etc and is dismissed by a deliberately unsympathetic character as "hysterical", though.

Going by the ages of their actors, Frederick and Annabelle Loren are 48 and 32. It is mentioned that his previous wives were in their 20s though it is not clear how old he was at that time.

There is a particularly graphic scene of a severed head in a box. It is not very realistic but is quite effective and gross looking.
