The dog goes to the crazed stepfather while he weilds a knife. Squirms and is eventually saved by the daughter coming home. But it does look like a close call.

No— but the word "rape" is used by the stepfather to describe an innocent (and consensual) kiss that his teenage stepdaughter had with a classmate.

First two minutes, the stepfather puts on contacts up close. Not mutilation but if you don't like eye stuff, you probably won't like it. Nothing gorey or anything, just contacts. 1:04:56 he removes them

At the beginning of the movie, you do see a teddy bear covered in blood as the stepfather leaves the house.

Around 45 minutes in Jerry kills the therapist and in order to avoid suspicion he sets it up to look like an accident. He sets up the car to fall of the cliff and catch on fire. No one in the car is alive when it crashes.
