Several sheep die, once at the very beginning of the film and again towards the middle. If you're squeamish about this, look away when you see sheep and you'll be fine. A cat is nearly shot by Henry Bowers for target practice later on, but he is caught by his dad, who makes him stop before he actually does it.

There is heavily implied abuse between Beverly and her father, including a scene of attempted sexual assault (?). An antagonist's father also shoots the ground near his son as a punishment for stealing his gun. It also appears that there are some unhealthy relationships with parents.

Yes, Eddie takes prescription drugs, including an inhaler. You see him use his inhaler but I'm not sure if he ever actually takes pills onscreen, although he definitely tries to (he drops them). They are a prominent part of his character arc. However, they are *spoiler* all revealed to be placebos.

Many of the jumpscares are based around gore in general, i think it's pretty hard to avoid it as it is quite sudden and can happen out of nowhere (like the kissing bridge scene / georgie scene)

Georgie loses his arm and for most people this part would be very traumatic but I personally found it slightly unrealistic and not that scary. You see his arm get bitten by IT and you see him trying to get away with one arm but because of the rain the blood is watered down and they don’t actually show the wound directly

Not really. Beverly Marsh floats and her eyes turn white but shes not having a seizure. And Pennywise in his transformation from Georgie to himself shakes weirdly but I dont think thats a seizure.

Well, yeah. It's IT: the whole story about a child-eating monster.
However, unlike the previous adaption, the first child killed is portrayed as graphically as in the book.
He has his arm torn off and is then dragged into the sewer by his ankles, screaming and crying.

Major spoilers ahead, however these spoilers indicate to whoever's reading this as to when to look away during the movie, either due to fear or just not wanting to see vomit: there are four scenes in the movie in which there is sludge or vomit involved. One, when Bill encounters Georgie in the basement, two, when Eddie encounters the leper, three, when Richie and Bill are searching for Eds in the upstairs bedroom in Niebolt Mansion, and four, when the losers' club are fighting Pennywise in the sewer.

Nobody commits suicide in the movie, but since IT (2017) is based on the novel of the same name, IT: Chapter Two (2019) will likely feature a scene where Stan kills himself.

Not explicitly, but Pennywise's design features crossed eyes so that no matter where he's facing onscreen, one eye will always be staring at the viewer. It's most obvious in the early scene where he speaks to Georgie.

There is a lot of insensitivity to the main character's sadness after his younger brother is killed by Pennywise. The boy of size (I forgot his name) cries while he is getting tortured by Henry Bowers and he's ridiculed for this.
