to answer "No but a character is about to shoot a cat but stopped before he could do it" it's not in that one but in the first one

There's a quick moment where a cute, small dog turns into a large monster, but it's more of a funny jump scare than anything disturbing. The dog doesn't die.

The only animals in the movie are apparitions created by Pennywise, and other than mutating grotesquely, they don’t get abused.

SPOILER* There is a point where a persons head morphs into a spider creature, it is very disturbing and graphic. There are also a lot of other scenes including minor bugs, but this scene stuck out to me.

“Things” died. But no actual animals

The only horses in this movie appear in a parade. It’s not a very memorable scene, but there are no other horses in this movie.

Effects of snakes growing out of a head figure.

When the group is in the abandoned house, they find a body in the fridge. The head rolls out and soon sprouts legs like a spider. It doesn't leave until the second half of the group climbs through the window and knocks it away.

The clown stalks everyone

Bev's father and abusive husband gaslight her

There's a very intense depiction of an abusive husband who emotionally manipulates and beats his wife, including punching and grabbing her.

Several flashback scenes to Beverly and her father implying sexual and physical abuse, showing verbal abuse, and emotional incest by comparing her to her mother and spraying her with her mother's perfume.

Bev is shown drinking a lot as well as smoking throughout the movie as well as when she was a kid.

Scene where one character nonconsenually drugs another to induce hallucinogenic effects for the 'prophecy'

There is excessive alcohol use towards the beginning when the characters are stressed. Its implied that they're not drinking responsibly in the moment, but that's it.

They are all mentally tortured by Pemnywise through the whole movie.

A lot more gore and guts and blood and ew than the first movie

At the beginning a kid is seen cutting their hand for the pact they make using glass. A character at the beginning also is scene in a tub with a razor blade near him and later seen dead with blood dripping - the actual cutting is not shown on screen. Another character near the end is is having words curved into his stomach by IT though these go away due to being a (painful) hallucination.

There’s a brutal homophobic attack at the beginning where a gay man gets beat up and his teeth get damaged but that’s the only bit I can think of

One of It's forms is a young girl with her head on fire. Later theres a flashback of a child watching his parents hands desperately trying to escape a locked room while they burn to death.

i mean kind of? if you count when pennywise eats people, then yes, however he is not human. it happens at the beginning of the first movie with georgie, another time during the rock fight you can see him eating someones arm, and again at the beginning of the second movie during the hate crime, that’s all i can remember

Pennywise manipulates their body throughout, including squishing their head flat. Twoards the end their head also deflates like a baloon.

Yes but they survive

kind of?? in the beginning a mans shoulder is bitten

A door is slammed on a hand and some fingers are severed. The shot does not linger, and it's the monster's hand (though appearing human)

There is two strangulation scenes though. One where one of the main characters is fighting off IT in the form of a leper and he strangles him to get him off of him. This scene is later mentioned by the same character at the end of the movie. Another scene Bev is choked and near strangled by her abusive husband.

One guy has Asthma attacks

A zombie kid has insect legs poke through his eye and another character when being attacked by IT in the form of a leper gouges his eye out with his thumb/finger trying to get it off of him.

There's a flashback to a scene in the first movie where Eddie has a broken arm in a cast.

Sort of? Someone’s thrown over a bridge into a river

Two children are shown to die on screen. with countless corpses shown.

Bill kisses Beverly when he is married

Technically not an actual kidnapping, but characters physically suffer like it is. In a vision Eddie finds his mother kidnapped by the pharmacist, tied to a bed. She's screaming for help.

They mention Mikes parents dying and they show a scene of Mike when he was about 6 and his parents hands coming out of the door trying to get out

there are way more jumpscares than there were in the first one. i counted about 7-10 total, while the first movie has about 2-4

Of course

There are dead characters that appear. But they’re not actually ghosts. Just manifestations of Pennywise.

Technically a bath.

A couple characters are dazed by lights, their eyes turn white, they become unresponsive, and they float towards them involuntarily.

Young Richie makes a comment along the lines of "I think I just sh*t my pants" but he's just expressing that he was afraid.

yes when people get hurt you can hear it

Someone spits on the feet of the couple in the opening, and several monsters throughout the film (especially Pennywise) drool excessively

3 times. at the beginning of the movie, when Richie show up for the first time (he shows up already vomiting, so take care); then when Eddie is struggling the leper (the leper vomits, but it's black, so it didn't look like a vomit, but still), Eddie goes home like that (covered in black vomit) and just clean himself when he's home; and then Richie again when he murder a real person at the library.

No, technically. There is however two scenes that are based loosely in medical facilities; A mental hospital and a medication storage room.

There is a room filled with dirty needles and syringes which are spilled all over the floor. Nothing is injected, however.

Yes, a character is imprisoned in an institution and stirs up a commotion/riot amongst the other patients/prisoners, which is delt with physically by the guards. Most of the patients/prisoners exhibit standard stereotypical movie “crazy person” behaviour

But a pharmacists makes a comment that a mole on a characters face could be cancer.

One character has recurring panic attacks throughout the film

Towards the beginning of the movie it shows someone (I won’t name who) pretty graphically c*ting themselves and dying

Nope but someone does

All of the main characters most likely suffer from PTSD from everything that happened in the first movie

this one is pretty severely depicted- we see a psych ward where one of the patients gets excited to see a balloon floating by the window. he stirs up other patients, and the guards deal with him in an agressive manner: he is grabbed by the arms, thrown into his room and shouted at. he escapes by murdering hospital staff and proceeds to stab one of the main characters in the face, who stabs him in the stomach in self defence. the mentally ill person survives this, and later returns to attempt to kill the same person as before, but is killed by another character before doing any major harm to anyone else. this is something of a running side-plot and could be very upsetting to anyone sensitive to this topic

I would say yes because Ben grows up to lose weight and that is a source of contention and fear for him with Pennywise, that he will always be the fact kid. This doesn’t fit the typical stereotype of body dysmorphia, but his shame and being shamed by pennywise may cause issues for some.

Quite a few. House of mirrors. Caverns. Being buried in soil. To name some

There are no canonically autistic characters

Early on in the film, one of the characters is seen committing suicide

No, but if you're someone who's triggered by mentions of eating disorders there is a ton of fat jokes, fat shaming, and comments about weight and appearance that may also be triggering.

YES A LOT PLEASE BE WARNED Vomit sounds, burping, eating, slushing, water noises, gushing

Alot throughout

A lot of it during the end fight scene.

a small creature with a baby’s head cries briefly

no

Nobody is pregnant in this movie.

no

no

A baby-like creature

there are no trans characters in the film. no misgendering occurs

Use of homophobic slurs

There is a graphic and disturbing hate crime against a gay couple in the opening scene. They both suffer and one is brutally beaten before being killed.

Pennywise targets Ben's weight several times and there are references to him being hot now that he's lost the weight.

Other than pennywise berating characters for their flaws/problems/disabilities.

The f-slur is used in both the hate crime scene near the beginning, and in Richies arcade flashback.

There is a bar mitzvah scene but it’s tasteful and there is no antisemitism.

No, but there is scenes involving racially motivated murder

No one has sex, but its implied/talked about. And theres a naked woman in one scene.

There is a call back to Beverly's father sexually assaulting her

there was an attempt in the beginning of the movie towards Beverly and a lot of mentions about her fathers abuse

better ending than the book, people looks very satisfied with this new ending, but I didn't find it happy nor sad at all

At the beginning of the movie there is a sudden car crash, it, however, is not fatal or shows any injury.

no ✈️

The car bumps into him, but nothing fatal.

There are many scenes with blood and gore, the bloodiest is when Beverly nearly drowns in a bathroom stall that floods with blood, this is towards the end of the movie

no one dies drowning but there are a couple scenes with people having difficulty swimming
