Maddie's stepfather has no screentime but she says he "will break her nose again" and Owen's father is portrayed as abusive, since him and his mother are scared of him and his few lines are not kind.

I feel like some scenes could be triggering because of the similarities with sexual assault and rape scenes, so beware. It's never direct but some moments felt disgusting to me and triggered a few feelings connected to my sexual abuse, so i just wanted to warn about them

very mild though-
in a campy tv show, two people have their hearts cut out off screen. the beating hearts are shown in a fridge, and one character is scene with a bloody wound in that area but this is not easy to see.
someone cuts open their chest with a boxcutter but this is surreal and there is no blood or gore.

It is a central plot point, we see it happening to 2 characters (but only the initial burying where we see them lying in the grave and getting dirt thrown on them briefly), one character describes being buried alive in graphic detail (planetarium scene), it is talked about a lot in the second half of the movie.

I would be wary of a scene that shows a character lying in a grave convulsing and spitting up saliva + frothy stuff. Not like an epileptic seizure but a poison induced one. It's a very brief scene.

There is a scene where someone is forcefed a kind of poison. They are shown to be in some sort of seizure-like state that results in them looking like they are choking on their own vomit. Not explicitly an overdose, but looks a lot like one.

I normally can not watch these scenes but I personally did not find the visuals very triggeringing or disturbing more so the sounds at times.
All the V**** either looked like the a liquid version of the energy in Atlantis or like tv static when it happened. Sometimes the sounds were gag-y. I honstly could not tell you exact times as I saw this in theaters but I’ve tried my best to be as descriptive as I can about when it happens.
In the begining-ish when you hear “ice cream man” he looks as if he’s melting and you can see stuff come out of the mouth. The character is a melting ice cream cone. Personally did not find it triggering as it looks very 1980s goosebumps animatronic but could be for some.
In the middle of the movie after you hear “help me isabelle” there is a visual when a character is lying in a grave. Then again after you see a character in a snow globe. Another character gets forced to take some blue stuff an v***** (this one all takes place within like 5 min maybe)
In a later scene when a a main character has a flashback about the time when “everything happened” they expell this one is still blue but looked mostly like tv static to me. This one does happen very abruptly.
The final time it happens after a character has a mental break in the middle of work. You dont see it happen but it does cut to a scene where you see the v in a urinal.

Speaking as an autistic person, there is a scene where a character is being treated badly by his coworkers. One keeps saying why won't you look at me in the eyes, and to me it is easy for it to feel like bullying aimed at an autistic person. It's off-putting but there is no kind of physical abuse.

Demonology is mentioned in reference to The Pink Opaque. The show also has characters described as "demons", Marco and Polo, though they do not have an appearance usually associated with demons.

A minor character has cancer and dies off screen. No hospital scene or any part of the grieving process is shown. It’s just a time skip with a narrator saying — died of cancer.
