The main story centers around the main character (a young girl)'s conflict with an oppressive stepfather. There are several scenes (especially towards the end) that are considered disturbing in this form.

Also, dead rabbits are shown.

There are big, praying mantis-like creatures, that turn out to be faries in diguise.
Also there are lot of big bugs in the scene with the toad. They crawl on the protagonist's arms and face. Though they look kind of cartoonish, so they are not that triggering (I have a bug phobia but these were relatively okay).

2/3 torture scenes, depending on what you count as torture. 1st one is with the farmers hunting rabbits, second is when the stutterer is caught and tied up, third is when one of the main women (spoilers!) is caught and tied up. Graphic after images are shown for the stutterer and woman.

There's a creature with his eyeballs not where eyes usually are: they are on a tray on a table and he can attach them to his hands. So eyeballs are shown there, and the creature is scary. Also, the stutterer guy's eye is swollen when they show him after having been tortured.

I would say excessive depends on the person watching. You do get to see a minor character get his face bludgeoned with a glass bottle. The main antagonist gets the corner of his lip sliced during the climax and the wound remains visible until the end. Blood is seen frequently throughout the movie.

Also there's attempted harm towards a newborn baby, but nothing happens to him at the end.
