SPOILER: Two characters are surreptitiously followed and photographed by a private detective, and ultimately the detective kills one of the characters by shooting him through a window from a distance, but no one is stalked in the usual sense of the word.

Gross things happen that are detailed in other trigger warnings. I think the burying alive one is the closest to torture, but it's not torture specifically.

No mutilation, but one character puts a knife all the way through another character's hand and into a windowsill to keep him from moving away from the window, and the second person later pulls it out. A moderate amount of blood is shown.

SPOILER : Somebody gets shot and looks to be dead, so another character puts them into their car and drives them somewhere but character that got shot is actually alive. If you would consider that kidnapping, not sure.

Not what I'd call jump scares, really, but there are some fairly sudden and shocking developments.

A man is buried when he's very near death but not fully dead. It's never shown from his POV but it could conceivably induce claustrophobic feelings.

A couple is shown moving around in a bed and it's clear that it's a sexual situation, but it's dark, it's very brief, they're fully covered, and nothing explicit is said or done.

Much sadder for some characters than for others, but overall I'd say it's pretty sad.

One character briefly considers running a dying man down with his car in order to "finish the job", and he even positions the car to do so, but he doesn't end up doing it.
