In the opening scene, which is actually from a fictional novel within the movie, we meet a bad guy who the heroine states raped her sister. He also tries to force the heroine to disrobe (unsuccessfully.)

No but someone is set on fire then they fall into an alligator pit so presumably the fire doesn't kill them

I guess, but it was a short fall into an alligator pit. So you see, it wasn't the fall that killed them.

Danny DeVito's character, in Spanish, talking on the phone, uses a Spanish word that I believe is a slur.

Not much. A busted lip, some minor cuts. Right near the end of the film (about 1.5hrs in) Joan's hand is cut by a knife. The only true gorey bit of the movie happens shortly afterwards when the cop's hand is eaten by a crocodile.

No, but they do fall down a cliff in a mud slide from heavy rains and get swept into a river, but they are okay

I don't believe a single person is actually hit, but the guns are fired a LOT.
