No idea why people are saying no. A character gets their teeth pulled out, some split in middle, and are shown in detail to the camera immediately after, but this might only be in the directors cut

A Couple of minor scares, but most of them is really just a loud sound effect with no background music

Total Jump Scare count: 5 (5 Minor)

(Minor) (12:33) Andrew turns around and Steve suddenly scares him (As a Joke)

(Minor) (14:17) The Screen suddenly flashes a few times after it goes black

(Minor) (32:18) An Aeroplane speeds by in the sky, startling the boys

(Minor) (1:05:31) After Andrew grabs his abusive dad, the hospital suddenly implodes

(Minor) (1:11:31) The apartment suddenly gets destroyed by Andrew and Matt fighting

when you hear a girl screaming at andrew like "aw that's disgusting!!" just cover your eyes until you hear a door close after he screams "get out!" because even after she walks away, you can still kinda see it on his clothes and face, and as an emetophobe it's scarring. Also, during the end fight he throws up AGAIN on a roof, it was very brief, but you could still here it, but it was very hard to see, it wasn't as bad though in my opinion

Andrew almost definitely has some sort of undiagnosed mental illness (anxiety attacks at the very least) and after a significant amount of time with his powers he begins to turn them on people who are hurting/abusing him. So it's justified, but extant.

No but it is a found-footage film. Characters talk to the camera but they're not talking to the audience.
