For clarification, the scene with dead goats is at 1:02:00:00 into the movie, not at one minute into the movie. Be warned, pretty sad.

Events of the film are set off by the suicide of the main characters' mother; they find her body and cry for her. Their bedridden father is also deceased by the end of the film. A man sees the corpse of his wife/the mother of his children.

All timestamps from Shudder.
I'd advise looking away and muting at 1:22:54 (right after he says "oh god"). There isn't any visible vomit but he gags and snot blows out of his nose. ):
He then coughs/gags out a very large amount of blood at 1:25:30. Blood pours from his mouth from 1:25:53-1:26:12, however it is not vomit.

I believe yes; the protagonists are clearly distressed by the situation they are in and want to leave, but other characters do not take them seriously.
