Not at all, but we see a little boy being emotionally affected by his parents' relationship (they're separated, or something like it).

Someone gets way too drunk at a party, probably in an attempt to handle/drown his painful emotions.

Yes, yes, yes. We see people get enveloped in fire and blown up in fiery explosions, we see someone's face while he's being burned, and we see dead burn victims (more or less charred), including in an autopsy scene.

No, but an explosion has thrown someone halfway through the windshield of a car. The lower half of his dead body lies on the hood, while the upper half is inside the car. It looks like the scene of a car accident, although it isn't, so I'm clicking Yes.

No, but someone is in water, unable to get out and hence in danger of drowning.
