Three women are tortured and/or killed in the film, but you do not see the actual acts occur. Only one body is shown on screen. Otherwise, the acts are only discussed by the characters.

Rape is not shown on screen but the after math is. A man is forced at gunpoint to rape a woman with a knife strap-on. She dies in the process but he lives and recounts what happened while hyperventilating. Neither him nor the woman consented to the act and both are rape victims in my eyes.

Depending on your take on the killer, and a subject which is argued throughout the film, you could argue he is mentally ill, and is also definitely violent and gruesome.

Overall yes. While the killer is technically apprehended, it happens in a way that is definitely not victorious for anyone involved.

The killer often threatens his victims with a gun. The killer and the detectives have a shootout mid-film, and a character later dies by being shot.
