Not really gaslighting but gonna put here (since there isn’t a space for it) the religious woman kind of brainwashing people into doing harmful things for religion could be very triggering for those with religious trauma.

People drink to cope with the first death in the movie. They do not get drunk but it is a notable plot point.

Only made up cgi-animals, ”monsters”. They do however seem sentient and many of them suffer when attacked by the humans.

Things are crazy cause these creatures are taking over but the movie doesn’t make it feel like you’re crazy or you’re not sure what’s going on. They pretty much know there’s creatures in the mist from the start and that’s just it.

There is a storm in the beginning and a lot of flashlights used. I watched this with my photosensitive partner and they were mostly okay.
It's a lot better than shows with lots of gunfire in darkness or police lights.

SPOILER ALERT








At the end of the movie the main carachter decides to kill all the other people in the car with the 4 bullets they had. (including his 8 yo son!!) It gets even sadder when he gets out of the car to get killed by the creatures when the millitary shows up. yeah.

Not on screen. Near the end the protagonists see the wreckage, but no car crashes (or even the sounds of car crashes) were on screen.
