You never see anyone being stalked during the movie. But Alan admits to watching multiple characters for awhile.

Yes,a female character is sexually assaulted by Alan while she’s getting her teeth done. She’s not in the right state of mind. He gave her some sort of gas since she admitted to being scared of needles. But the scenes is all around disgusting and disturbing. He has a Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde type of personality. So he randomly started thinking that patient was his wife when it wasn’t.

It’s not a splatter movie,but it’s still bloody and gory in its own way if that makes sense. You’ll see teeth being damaged, mutilated,and at one point a character’s tongue is removed.
