Not technically, but worth noting that one of the little people appears to be played by a child rather than an adult, so seeing her get slapped in the face after knocking over a drink (as well as characters making rather lecherous comments about her) may be upsetting for those tracking this category.

Arguably, the three people taken by Prospero at the beginning of the film. They certainly don't go with him of their own volition.

SPOILERS: There's a scene at the end where for a rather long time we see Prospero trying to fight his way through a crowd that keeps closing in on him. Some could probably find this claustrophobia-inducing with the way it's shot.

Between actors but not characters. There is the relationship between the two little people, one played by an adult little person and the other by a child, but the characters are meant to both be adults. Similarly, the love interest of a character played by a 17-year-old actress is played by a man in his mid-20s, but the characters seem to be meant to be closer in age.

Other than the scene where the two men are forced to cut themselves with daggers, a woman also brands herself with an upside-down cross.

A man offers his wife to the villain to do what he will with in exchange for his life. The villain does not take him up on the offer. He says "I've already had that dubious pleasure" but the implication seems more that the wife cheated with the villain (as he mocks the husband for thinking his wife was faithful) and not that he actually raped her, however the possibility of rape is brought up in the conversation.
