Is someone tortured?

Sort of. there is a scene when one character is manipulated against their will, and they are clearly afraid of it. It was used to extract information. - There is also a fight scene, where one person is restrained, and the form of restraint seems to be hurting them, while also being told that they will die. They just want to make them suffer first. In a sense.
I don't like torture scenes of most any type, but this felt comfortable for me in how it was portrayed

Questionable. two adult family members get in a fight. Father and son. But its played more as clear villian and hero type setup.

Main character's foot gets turned backwards during a dream sequence. Not done in a violent way, more just disturbing/cartooney. Over quickly and back to normal shortly after.

Main character's teeth fall out during a dream sequence while he's laying in bed. It's not done in a violent way and they are back again soon after. Happens just after foot is turned backwards and before ears grow large.

I've typically only heard "ableist" apply to being called out for handicaps. One person is very nervous, and many of there "faults" or not, are called out often, in insulting ways.

While not sexually explicit, several people speak matter of factly about a woman's relationship with a man, that hasn't happened. Its brought up in a sense that their physical relationship might expected. Its not too clear on this, but if the campy facade were taken a way, it feels like it would be an obvious yes. Its seems to play more for mystery of how much the speaker may know, but still seems to objectify a woman as a male interest. Not enough that I marked it yes though.

This is only mentioned as a matter of fact thing about a character's history and doesn't seem to have any weight in the movie.
However, there is another scene, where we are seeing back story of another person, who seems psychologically abandoned, I.e. parents forcing them to sign away control of their ability to choose anything in life, and holding it over them growing up. It seems like the perfect recipe to tell someone how little they mean to a parent. Its a stretch but similar psychological direction.

If you are not following everything well, there is a fight scene, where three character's seem to be destroyed, but it is more a form of prison, and not death.

Yes and no. a person is trapped in a room with no escape intended to be left there forever. Depending on why you are uncomfortable with seeing someone buried alive, this could upset you.

I don't remember any bugs, but there is a moment where someone is tricked into thinking there was a bug on their forehead. The nature of the movie may have had bugs show up at various points in the movie, but I didn't really notice them. They didn't play any major focus.

While not drugged via drugs, a person is "put under the unfluence" in the sense that their decisions are no longer there own, Its not in the sense of meds knocking someone out, but very much in the loss of personal control, and doing things you would never have wanted to, including things regretted. Played off as humourous, but also purposefully shining light on a darker role it could take.

There is a fight scene where two people are held down for a couple minutes. There are also multiple points where various characters are altered, in a way that restricts them from most social interactions. Understanding they can still think, shines a darker clarity on it as a form of prison/restraint.

This is not stalking so much like a person being followed, but more like cookies on your browser helping a company be aware of your every move in way that can be used against you, in kind of an extreme version.

In one area of a room, someone passes by what appears to be a large snake. It is not moving, and I did not see its head. It could have been a stuffed decoration. It could have been a living snake. It didn't hold any focus on the camera, and was part of many distractions in an interesting background.

There is a scene where a person falls from a very high height, that could have easily killed someone (about 5 stories up?) and lands on their belly. This is a campy movie though, so a moment later, that just get up and are fine.

This is kind of a key theme throughout. Many characters are made to do things they would otherwise not choose to do, and without understanding why.

There were a lot of random things in the backgrounds, and it would not surprise me if there were a mannequin or two, but this never played a role.

Its vague, the characters are more apt to tell you to your face how little they think of you. It feels in line with gaslighting only in the weakest possible sense.

A biopsied rat is shown, and while it looked like surgically cut open and exposed rat/hamster looking thing, it seems like it was actually felt and buttons. There are various jars with creatures in them, some live, some not. This is not focused on though. The felt rat is the biggest thing I'm calling this out for.
