Numerous animals die, including a live chicken which may have been alive while it was decapitated on-set, though a camera cut makes this unclear.

Numerous animals die or appear having already died, including a chicken which is decapitated. It is decapitated in a way that suggests it may have been alive on-set when it was killed, but a camera cut makes this unclear.

Early in the story, a character has rough sex with his partner. At first, she resists, and the sequence feels extremely rapey.

This occurs multiple times in the movie, but the most shocking sequence occurs when the main character is in a hotel room for the first time. He becomes ill, then rushes to the bathroom, where he struggles to vomit up a live eel.

Eye mutilation is a major plot point. Spiders sting someone in the eyes. Later, someone hallucinates that their eyes have been replaced/eaten out by masses of grubs. At the end of the story, the spider "stings" emerge from someone's eyes by bursting through their eyelids.

Some of the movie's grossest scenes involve characters eating and spitting up rotten food. In an unbroken cut, three characters chew, spit up, and pass along rotten food, before another person consumes the spit-up food and chews it again. If you are particularly sensitive to this sequence, it occurs during one of the scenes involving the alligator and the three wizards, after they've removed the woman from the alligator.
