There are multiple snakes throughout the film that are mentioned to have been killed/will be killed, and a snake dies at the end.

The titular "worm" is also referred to as a dragon and might be considered a wqingless dragon.
There is also large painting of it being slain by a knight in the style of paintings of Saint George that's integral to the plot.

There are worms dug out of the dirt at the beginning, if those count as bugs, and a character jokes that the spaghetti another character is eating is worms.

Possibly. An older woman seduces a young guy who talks about his mum and is looking for a youth hostel. He could be a teenager.

At the very end there is a brief scene inside a hospital, but a room for record keeping or a study or similar, not a patient treatment area. It doesn't really look like a hospital and you only see a nurse on the phone.

The whole premise of the movie is full of antisemitic dogwhistles, from blood libel to satanic reptilian cults to the implication that this cult killed Jesus and caused the fall of Rome - it would be impossible to just skip certain scenes. Jews are never specifically mentioned at any point, but considering that the movie was based on a novel by the notoriously antisemitic Bram Stoker, it's hard to ignore.

The word "vegetable" is used to describe someone, and one of the characters calls themselves "esquizofrenic" though it's obvious they're not. Not sure why people are voting "no"

It’s not a demon; it’s a pagan god. Christians, of course, can’t tell the difference. Dogma, am I right?
