a woman shoots her husband after they fight for a while. the main two characters are also sometimes physically aggressive towards each other in heated moments
There is quite a bit of lying and I think a few instances do count as gaslighting, including when the mother tells her son he must have seen something different.
The whole plot of the film revolves around a man killing people so he can secure re-employment after being laid off, but the job terminations shouldn't count as abuse?
A man accuses his wife of cheating and tries to take her underwear off. Nothing happens in the end, but the scene depicts physical aggression that may be triggering for people.
a husband tries to take his wife’s underwear off to smell them because he accuses her of infidelity. he gives up after a bit but this might be triggering
To the best of my knowledge, the actress playing the daughter with autism does not have autism in real life. Autism isn't necessarily a disability to everyone but I think this situation does apply to this trigger.
There are no serious jump scares, however, there is a gun shot that startled me (around 63 min) as the lead character is about to finish dealing with one of his targets, as he leaves the target's house. Other than that, don't recall any. It's a rather minor one, if it counts. (will adjust my vote accordingly based on the majority after more people see the film)
NOT SAFE! at 1 hour and 18 minutes, a bit after the scene switches to man-su smoking in a highway - he suddenly retches but you dont actually see or hear him vomiting as the scene immediately switches to ocean waves splashing AGAIN! visual and audio, right at the 1 hour and 57 minutes mark, a man is seen vomiting - there is a very graphic lead-up so you will definitely know when its gonna happen, it stays on his face for the next scene
though no certain mental illness is stated, the daughter is shown to have communication problems (only speaking in repeated sentences), and panics at loud noises.
99% of this 140min film is flash-free, but be aware there’s an intense moment of strobing dance lights (lasts several seconds) after Man-su leaves the party. Few shots later there are lightning flashes for a few seconds.
Later in the film we briefly see flashing police car lights at night, also some machinery flashes are visible in final scene.
Non-explicit sex scene; a man and a woman have sex and we hear their moans, but no crucial details are seen as we only see the woman's reactions and the man from the back.
Elsewhere, a husband forces his wife to allow him to smell her panties (to check if she had sex with someone else), and a woman's clothing starts to fall off a bit during a scuffle.
The main character manages to get a job in the end and save his house, but his state of mind has deteriorated, he loses the trust of his family members, and they will have to live with the fact that the father is a serial killer. Doesn't help that automation has a role in his job now. It feels like a pyrrhic victory for the protagonist.
Credits are initially presented as written by a typewriter, with scenes interspersed with them, but after this section, there's nothing after the credits are presented normally.
a man is bitten by a snake, slightly bloody wound shown. a woman tries to remedy it by cutting it open with a knife (blood shown) and sucking the venom out.
a scuffle between three people leads to some violence. a man is shot in the shoulder with some blood shown. the three fight to reach a gun, and a different man is hit in the head with a trophy, leading to him bleeding a bit from his head. the man shot in the shoulder is finally shot again off screen and his slightly bloody corpse is seen.
a man is shot in the head with brief blood spray.
a man pulls a tooth out of his mouth which is very gross and shown in close up. he bleeds from his mouth for the next scene.
no other instances of blood and gore (that i can recall) but some instances of graphic violence with no blood (like a man getting tortured by having alcohol and meat funneled into his mouth)
