A rat is shown onscreen (as usual, a clean, cute rat), and there is some faint implication that it's killed, but, if it is, we don't see or hear it.

A dead body is shown after the fact hanging by the neck from a shower head, and the eyes are rolled back to show the whites, but the victim was killed in another way.

However, there is a scene where a grave has been opened and a fresh body placed in the coffin along with/atop(?) the old one.

However, an obese character appearing in only one scene is portrayed as uncaring, unprofessional, and very lazy.
