In an optional side quest, the player is tasked with proving that a celebrity is not as great as she seems. After the side quest is completed, the player returns to the quest giver and will find out (through a newspaper) that the celebrity was filmed having some sort of intercourse with a llama. It's not detailed at all.

There is a quest around halfway/later in the game about a snuff film involving a woman being terrorised and killed, as well as a short dungeon involving the studio where snuff films are made. The scene shown is short and not very detailed considering the graphics of the game.

One of the ways of obtaining of blood points is feeding on rats. If you play as a Nosferatu, it's your only way of nutrition besides buying blood packs.

There is a vampire that must eat flesh to survive, and they are shown doing so. It could be argued that it isn't technically cannibalism since they are a vampire, but I think it's at least close enough to warrant mentioning.

One bossfight is against a mad doctor named Gimble who is all about amputations and prostetics. He attacks you with a severed arm. After the fight you can pick it up and use it as a weapon yourself.
An NPC metioned the mad doctor cutting of their finger.

There is a character with DID who makes threats with a gun, and one version of the protagonist is part of an infamously mentally ill vampire clan. Combat is essential to this game and you can make threats of violence regularly, so the Malkavian protagonist counts.

The player character can have s*x with some characters, but it's not shown onscreen.
In Chinatown you can see a woman giving oral s*x to a man.
Most of the female characters, player and NPC, are sexualized. There are prostitutes (though you can't have s*x with them) and strip dancers.
At one point of the game you have to read a diary of a prostitute and may learn about sadomasochist tendencies of one of the characters.
In one of the optional sidequests one of the minor NPC turns out to be engaged in an act of b********y though it only gets known from the news.
There is an organization which tries to bring the end of the world by transmitting an infection through sexual intercourses.
