A woman is abused by her father through various means such as suffocation, an attempt to brand his daughter with a hot iron rod, and dragging his daughter underwater into a pool potentially as an attempt to drown her.

Dogs are bought to lick the dripping blood of a crime scene, I don't know if it counts as animal abuse though, since they're never forced to do so. Also, they were on cages at the dog store, so I think that definitely counts.

Whether it's seen as joking about sexual assault on men is up to interpretation. For context, the man pulls a knife on Maxine and is going to attack her before she pulls out the gun. It seems to be less a mockery of men being sexually assaulted and more that the audience feels vindicated that the man planning to attack her is humiliated. Also, the scene where she steps on and punctures part of his body is just shocking, so that might have made some people laugh out of surprise.

A character who is playing an actress has a scene where she bites into an apple and fake, bloody teeth come out of her mouth. It's not realistic at all though. A bunch of mints and red corn syrup.

To the person wanting time stamps: no actual violence of the eyes is shown, just the aftermath. One is about halfway through the film: when someone uncovers a dead body on a gurney. The second is towards the end of the film: when the characters are behind the Hollywood sign. I hope this helps!

The jumpscares are subtle enough that I didn't notice them.
Meaning: It doesn't suddenly cut from silent to loud, nor does a big scary face/figure randomly pop up.
If those are the type of jumpscares you're concerned about, you're in the clear.

Slight Spoilers:
A detective “comes to the rescue” at one point in the film.
A detective continually tries to play “good cop/bad cop” & they are not successful. There’s a humorous tone everytime they fail.
The cops do not solve the crime through their own detective work or prowess. They just happen to be following a character at the right time. One detective is killed and the other is severely injured (possibly also killed), so neither gets any glory at the end.
Overall, the portrayal is more positive than negative.
