Deaths themselves are not explicitly shown on screen. One character wears a foam mask of a dead cow, and hides underneath what appears to be the remains of a pig. Later in the movie a dead cow is shown much more graphically, and more characters hide inside it.

No animals are really abused. With that being said; there is a scene where a mental hospital patient shoves a live rat into another patient's mouth, trying to force said patient to eat the rat. The rat whimpers and squeals in distress, while in the mouth of the patient, but the rat is freed and seemingly survives.

Yes, it happens early on in the movie after the girl falls into a pit. Also, later in the movie, another character is curb-stomped, and another is beaten with a car door, if you would consider those "being crushed."

There is one scene early on where a character puts a knife in another’s mouth and injures them severely with it. More directly, a scene roughly fifty minutes in has a character ‘curb-stomping’ another- nothing is explicitly shown, but there is a sound effect of bone on rock.

While not explicitly described as anxiety attacks, there are many horror-typical panic episodes exhibited by characters throughout the movie that involve sobbing/crying/other general panicking.

There are very old-fashioned and demonizing ideas of mental illness, resulting in era-typical ableist behaviors and actions.

One not very explicit scene about a quarter way through the movie, clothes stay mostly on and only lasts a couple seconds. Pretty explicit scene later on about 45 minutes in, lasts about 3 minutes.
