One character is a drug addict, I think to meth or cocaine? He also might have had an alcohol addiction. He is a minor figure and only shows up toward the end.

If you count showing real dead animals on screen/killing animals on screen, than yes, a lot.
If you are more worried about seeing live animals physically or emotionally mistreated as a part of the storyline, watch out for the scene where three live chickens are beheaded. One of these has its head slowly ripped off by a human. Otherwise, all the animals which show up are treated fine, or they were already dead before being dismembered on screen.

There are real dead animals in this movie, some of which are killed on screen - notably, three live chickens are killed during the scene at the Zulu village. Two have their heads chopped off with a knife, the third has its head torn off by a human in the course of about 3 seconds. Very graphic.

All of the dead animals in this move are real, not trained animals pretending. There are dead frogs (which a restaurant cook dismembers in a professional looking, but still graphic, manner), several slaughtered pigs, three live chickens which are killed on screen, and a roadkill mouse that gets run over by a car. There is also a lot of cut up animal meat in the restaurant cooler.

Flies crawling on dead bodies - the bugs probably aren't the most disturbing thing to look at in those scenes.

Yes, in at least two extended and graphic scenes.

[Spoilers --->] A Zulu woman collapses from being sick and a man assaults her while she is dying. The same man later assaults his boss's wife with a lot of spite and cruelty, before killing her and her husband.

A man sucks out a woman's eyeball, when people get the virus in the movie it says their eyes start to liquefy, and some people start to cry blood.

Not epileptic seizures, but a big thing in the movie is that people fall down and start to convulse violently right before they die from contracting the virus. This happens a dozen times at least, and it very much looks like they are all having seizures.

Several instances of vomiting, it's one of the symptoms of viral infection right before someone dies in the movie. It looks pretty gross. There are also two women who are nauseated by the gore and retch several times before throwing up, one into a toilet, the other into a bucket (but you mostly just hear it in their cases, not see it).

A woman saw her family killed when she was a child, and was almost killed herself by the same man. The way she acts in the movie looked a lot like post-traumatic stress to me.
