I wouldn’t necessarily say the mom is abusive as a whole but she does commit some child abuse due to her frustration and mourning

A good portion of the runtime is one particular woman being tortured pretty graphically. She's physically restrained for much of the movie.

The cats body is found at 39:30 and the boys lay on the ground with it with it at 39:50, skip to 40:05 to miss the scene. The cats body is floating in the liquid at 40:35, left in the living room for the mother to see. The scene ends around 41:33 after the mom dumps cockroaches in with the cats body. Got a little wordy here but 39:30-41:33 features the dead cat until the body and liquid is used as fuel for the fire in the 1:25:00 range and is zoomed in on while on fire from 1:29:30 to 1:29:50

There is a scene where the mother pulls at a hang nail on her toe and it peels up further on her leg to reveal a black inside. There's no blood, but it can be seen as squicky.

It depends on your definition of "excessive," but there is some blood and depictions of injuries. However, it isn't like some super gory movies, like the Friday the 13th and Saw series.

It happens at the end of the movie when Elias runs from the barn. You can kind of figure when it will happen as he's gagging while running. It is visual and audio but it's not that bad as it is kind of dark. It can be triggering.
