Near the end of the first act, a character is killed in a slow and very painful manner, while its not supposed to be technical torture, the death is definitely torturous

End of the first act involves what seems to be a suicide pact but is also possibly a murder? The suicide isn't emphasized, there is also a scene in the 3rd act where a character attempts suicide with a firearm

occasionally in fight scenes the heads of zombies are bashed in, but this is never focused on or drawn in very much detail

Fire is used as a constant weapon against reanimated corpses, this could be seen as being burned alive in a way, in the second act characters are also trapped in a burning building, but none are actually burned alive.

The movies plot revolves around a man trying to bring his "friend" back from the dead, while not technically a canon LGBT+ relationship, it is very much coded as such.

While not actually electro-therapy or used for the same purpose, we do see corpses and a main character get shocked and electrocuted occasionally by medical equipment throughout the movie

its arguable that a supporting character is possessed by a version of necromancy for the entirety of the movie, but is directly possessed by another character briefly in the final fight of the movie.

While not technically a seizer, a character has fits and body language that evoke a seizer in the second and third acts

Characters use sedatives to sedate a violent character, we see shots of them being injected in the neck with a needle and passing out

No eating disorder mentions, but a character is seen to be continuing to get thinner and thinner as the movie goes on, this is happening because he's dead but we do see his body in a lot of detail
