A mother is described as hating her child because the child’s birth was difficult. The plot also revolves around fathers killing their children but it is not implied that the fathers are abusive beforehand.

Spoiler: many of the deaths involve the murder-suicide of many families and some of the deaths are seen on screen or heard off screen. The very last scene at the end of the movie has verbal abuse from a husband towards a wife.

I read all the comments here before seeing the movie so I was extra careful in order to help others.
The scene indeed happens during the interview of the girl in the mental institution. It happens just after the mother is shown stabbing a sort of doll.
The cow is already dead and fully decapitated and we only see the father taking the head away.

roughly 50 minutes in, during an 'autopsy' there is a flash to a red filtered sequence of snakes moving around. very quick. Happens again roughly 17 minutes later right after you see a spider crawl under a door and finally towards the end after someone says "there once was a little girl..."

Not explicitly.

SPOILER:

A person undresses and provocatively draws a knife against their stomach in front of a doll that contains the consciousness of a child (think locked-in syndrome). Also aspects of the story and imagery could be triggering to survivors.

No humans are buried alive but there is a scene where a doll made to look like a human child is discovered in a box buried under a barn floor. It’s tucked up in the box in a foetal position and for a very brief second, when the FBI agents remove the lid, it does almost look like a real person

In the very first scene of the movie, when the child is looking around in the snow, Longlegs suddenly appears. Later when Lee is looking at photos in her mom’s house there’s another jumpscare with Longlegs. These were the only jumpscares that stood out to me but other scenes may also qualify.

I don't have the timestamp but it's in the third act (labeled on the screen). The main characters mother goes to a house to deliver a gift in a large box. She goes in, soon you'll see a man attack a woman in the house. As he is striking her she lands on the floor just out of view. Her hand reaches up briefly, back in frame, he strikes again. This is when you should look away and plug your ears. Seconds later the main characters mom leaves the house quickly and gets sick in the driveway. I didn't time it but I think if you waited 10 to 15 seconds from seeing the hand come back into frame during the murder scene you should miss it. I had my ears plugged and was squinting through my eyelashes to see when it was over and lived. It's far enough from the camera that if squinting you won't see much detail.

*and yes, the person who mentioned the trailer before the movie (if seeing it in theaters) is correct (thank you for the warning). It's a movie that's coming out called cuckoo. If you see a trailer with a teen to early 20s looking white woman with a dirty blonde chin length Bob, look away and plugs your ears. Also, there was another trailer that you will want to do the same. It gives no warning and was gross enough for me to go on a loud rant. It's a trailer for a movie about a young prostitute that marries a young Russian guy. In the second half of the trailer.

The villian is not explicitly queer but definitely takes cues from Buffalo Bill from Silence of the Lambs. Feels very “man is scary because of man’s proximity to femininity”. Longlegs is a cis man, but the imagery could be read this way for sure.

It isn't cross-dressing. He's a dollmaker and there's a scene that overlays his face with a shot of a porcelain doll, hinting that it's what the intent was with his appearance.

no, a black man does get possessed due to one of longlegs' dolls and kills his wife before being killed himself (that's all i can say without giving away detailed spoilers) but it's not racially motivated and the vast majority of the people killed in the film beforehand are white from what i recall

No, but there is symbolism involving dolls that could potentially trigger survivors of incest

Nicolas Cage wears facial prosthetics to make his face look fatter/puffy. He wears no other prosthetics to my knowledge.

Bursts of brutal bloody horror violence throughout, including shootings, cutting, ax killings, and face smashing, shown in graphic bloody detail; blood splatters; decaying corpses shown in graphic gory detail; flashes of murder scenes with blood-splattered walls and floors; blood-stained clothing.
