Not in the typical sense, but a girl is in a cult and in a relationship with the cult leader whom she is shown to idolize.

There is an attempt, but the would-be victim notices what the perpetrator is up to and hits him in the head. It is later discussed why this happened (not for sexual assault reasons or anything like that).

No but characters are badly burned by fire during a fight and at the end the remaining alive characters must escape a room that is engulfed by flames. They do this very slowly and it's anxiety inducing but they do not catch fire.

it's somewhat unclear. a character is shown to have violent/murderous tendencies through a flashback in which they're shown holding a bloody knife over the body of their father. this character is also shown to be mostly emotionless and treats murder and violence very apathetically. a cult leader takes advantage of this and essentially brainwashes them.

This is somewhat debatable. Its not a 100% happy ending, but a few of the protagonists survive and make a good future.
I'd say it has a happy ending, but that also depends on which characters you get attached to.

Several people are shot in the movie. Some of them at close range, which makes the imagery especially gruesome and bloody. However, we never really see the wounds and it's all very quick
