The depiction of a woman about to be murdered is pretty tame and brief, albeit her breasts are shown, if that rubs anyone the wrong way. I would not say it is "for spectacle".

During a fire you can see a bowl with a couple pet goldfish in it start to boil and then burst open, presumably killing the fish

In a character's psychic vision, kids fall through ice and drown. He persuades another character of the danger to that character's own son in a very emotional scene.

Several instances and mentions of suicide. A man mentions that another man's sister had killed herself. A man kills himself by positioning scissors and slamming his head on them. A man willingly places himself into harm's way in order to carry out a necessary task, despite knowing he will die. A man is shown putting a gun under his jaw in order to kill himself.

The Castle Rock Killer in the bathtub is the really nasty one. It's obvious when it's coming.
