The main character eventually starts following the man she suspects of following her. She goes to his apartment and job, and does many of the same things he does to her.

The movie "Watcher" is not the one with the ferret. This film has a cat that is never in peril.

The killer decapitates victims (off screen but aftermath shown) and ultimately slits the MC’s throat on screen and the scene goes on for a while.

There are some gory images, specifically an image of a woman's decapitated body, then a woman with her throat slit. But I wouldn't say it was excessive

As another commenter said, the jumpscares aren't too bad.
57:42 (An intruder suddenly wraps a bag around a woman's head from behind)
1:15:32 (A loud traincar pulls up in a previously silent, tense moment)
1:24:43 (An intruder suddenly wraps a bag around a woman's head from behind— No, this is not a mistaken copy/paste)

The man across the street avoids eye contact and doesn't speak for much of the movie - he may be interpreted as autistic.
