Some snails are prepared and eaten, and we're told that a specific ape was killed and eaten in the past.

I don't think so, but there's a pretty big spider. And big snails and toads, in case you have a problem with those.

No, but someone is hung by their legs to be bled, and there's an attempted suicide by hanging, only it's interrupted before the person actually hangs by the rope.

Someone has his lower leg cut off; we see the bandaged stump. I don't know if that counts.

No, but someone does fall from the roof of a tall building; only the fall is halted a ways down by a rope that has wrapped itself around the person's leg.

Not exactly, but two people take some of their clothes off in a bathroom with a shower, and everything is doused in water from multiple sources (such as broken pipes), including the persons.

Indirectly, yes (it's complicated). Apart from that, someone tries numerous times throughout the movie to commit suicide in various convoluted ways, and it's treated like a joke.

The poorly-sighted main female character attempts to appear more attractive by removing her spectacles, in line with the absurd comedy of the entire movie.

but if this is a big trigger for you, the scene where the bathroom fills with water may be worrying so be careful
