There is a shocking scene where a woman appears to have been hanged, but it's not gory and she turns out to have faked it.

A husband and wife are both plotting to kill each other (she married him with the goal of killing him for his money, he is onto her and plotting her death.) They have a lot of verbal arguments and at one point he grabs her hair. It ends with her trying to kill him and him killing her instead. She also claims he murdered his previous wives but this is not confirmed. There is no one clear victim in this relationship but it is certainly not healthy.

It's....complicated. The film centres around a husband and wife who are both trying to kill each other, there's a lot of back and forth scheming and murder attempts between them, but not a straightforward abused/abuser dynamic.

one of the characters, Watson Pritchard, is a chronic alcoholic, which is touched on in the plot, and he is shown to drink alcohol at multiple points in the movie, but it isn't a significant part to the plot besides that others think he's crazy

One of the characters finds an already dead rat in a rat trap and uses it to demonstrate a pool of acid. All that remains of the rat are its bones.

No, but one of the characters is a doctor of medicine who specialises in women's mental health - which may upset someone with history in this field.

Not in the autistic sense, no. A woman panics, screams, cries, etc and is dismissed by a deliberately unsympathetic character as "hysterical", though.

There is a "suicide" in the film, as one of the characters is found hanging by her neck by noose. We see this image at least twice.

There is a particularly graphic scene of a severed head in a box. It is not very realistic but is quite effective and gross looking.
