the dog does not die, but it disappears like a ghost and the owner cannot go back to save him. I do not know why, but this made me extremely sad to the point of tears. just FYI. it’s a brief 2 minute portion of the movie.

The protagonist is often seen drinking beer or whiskey, I wouldn't consider it to be an addiction but is definately binge-drinking. He also becomes dependant on painkillers. Multiple characters are seen doing DMT, cocaine, weed etc. throughout the film.

We could assume the woman burning alive in a building is struggling to breathe but it's not shown on screen or heard. A man at the very beginning of the film who was stabbed makes a gurgling noise as he's turned on his side.

They only show the aftermath but it is creepy. A man is crushed on top of the elevator car. With a smile on his face, which is why it’s creepy. It is a very brief scene.

A charred body is discovered at the abandoned carnival, this is very graphic. Later that character is shown as she struggles to escape a burning building. Her death is not seen but it is clear what ends up happening.

Yes, there is repeated gore and blood. The two main characters are EMTs so be prepared to see it splattered all over crime scenes and the ambulance they ride in.

They find people stabbed, bitten, burned alive, seriously injured and there are scenes of war towards the end with dead bodies. There would be no point in watching this if you are bothered by blood or gore, it's constant.
