No actual dogs appear in the movie. A scene depicts a dog dying but it is a flashback using puppets (of a sort).

Marijuana is used for a minute, but does not play a role in the plot of the movie and they are not seen "tripping".

While you don't see a dog explicitly die on screen, it is mentioned and a "shadow puppet" dog's head separated from its shadow puppet body is shown.

Yes. Bees are present in most of the movie. There's also depiction of being stung by a bee, and the wound plays an important part in the movie later on.

I would say yes with the way a character’s body starts to almost rot from a bee sting all the way up to his face. He becomes a human hive by the end.

Near the end of the movie, the main guy is turned around from facing a wall. Half of his body is covered in holes similar to a hive and we see his arm closer up after his hand is cut off. He looks like this until the end.

There is a scene in an elevator. It can be seen as a rather suffocating scene, but that's just the point, since it's a scene that's supposed to be scary.

No. A girl with a shaved head dies, but there's nothing that really implies she's gay. There actually is a gay male couple in the film and they both survive.

Not sure if this is the right category for the comment, but I wanted to give a trypophobia warning for near the end of the movie. A character’s skin begins to appear with several small holes all over it.
