Wen is not physically hurt by anyone, but witnesses some bad stuff. Most of the time Eric either tells her, or covers her eyes/ears himself.

Don't know if I should actually comment on this one but just for the record (SPOILERS ahead):
With everything that happens in the world outside the cabin, we can assume that probably hundreds of billions of animals die due to "the plagues" being unleashed. We do not see it nor hear anything about it though.

I voted no, even though I think catching insects and keeping them in a jar does count as abuse.
However, Wen treats them very carefully and respectfully and probably would have set them free again at some point

Not excessive and most implied and shown off screen. If you're very sensitive to gore and blood, I will way you can tell when it's coming and look away and it's quick. If you're okay with minimal gore it should be ok.

SPOILERS for both book and movie. The movie changes the ending so that one of the gay men kills himself and it’s confirmed that this did indeed end the biblical apocalypse. Plays into homophobic rhetoric that gay marriage is somehow destroying the world

There are many planes seen falling out of the sky after one of the strangers are killed (on the news and at the end when they go outside)

Very minimal, not what I'd consider gory at all. Some blood but most implied blood shown off screen.

Not explicitly shown, but there is a tsunami and it’s implied that people are submerged in the wave

A character is shot in the abdomen when she runs at a character who is armed. Blood is shown around the bullet hole.
