When the hitchhiker stops a man in a big rig, the driver has a dog. The hitchhiker brings the dog to eat a dead alien and soon the worm is in the dog. The dog lays next to the hitchhiker in the big rig (after the diver is killed) and the dog is wimpering as its stomach moves strangely. When they get to the Boston aqueduct, the hitchhiker brings the dog inside. The dog does die, but you don't SEE it die, you just see the body. The wimpering is yucky though. It starts maybe the last 30/45 minutes of the movie.

Yes, there is drinking, but I wouldn’t say abuse. One character is shown to be intoxicated after about 5 beers.

Not on-screen, but Curtis mentions how they killed all the animals trying to flee from the quarantine-zone.

A character chokes on a red cloud of airborne virus, and this scene is repeated at a later time in the movie.

No, but one character does get burned post mortem. All you really see is a shoe, so it’s not graphic at all.

An alien grabs a male character between the legs and squeezes. It is a close up graphic shot of testicular pain. Hard to watch and definitely a trigger.

There is a scene where a character has a substantial injury to the fingers of one hand. This has a minimal impact on the scene and is not highlighted. If you’re not paying attention, you could miss it entirely.

Shower no, but bathroom yes. It has a lot of the same suspense as a typical shower scene. Instead is the suspense being about the shower curtain being pulled back, it’s the bathroom door being opened.

The first childhood flashback involves teens bullying a boy with Down syndrome by stripping him down and trying to force him to eat feces. The main characters fend off the teens and prevent anything from happening to the boy, but it still may be distressing to watch.

One character has a nervous habit and it leads to an unfortunate situation. There is a several minute situation where he is trying to calm is nerves and it is anxiety inducing for the audience.

There are a couple of close call almost suicide scenes. One is fairly brutal regarding vehicles. If this is a sensitive subject, I would advise caution.
