No explicit assault actually occurs, but there is a long and grueling section of the movie wherein a female child and a female adult are sexually and emotionally terrorized by an all-male settlement attempting to take them both as wives wholly against their consent because the men are "sex starved". The older female even (briefly) attempts to drug the young girl in hopes of helping reduce the approaching trauma. It is deeply uncomfortable to sit through and I would absolutely not recommend it to anyone who has trauma concerning sexual assault.

In the first 30 seconds of the movie when the movie is showing how the world is dealing with the outbreak, there is a distinct clip where a man is shown being lynched and beaten. I stopped watching after that so I’m not sure if there are any other scenes but there’s definitely a hanging!!

While there are about 10 jumpscares, most of them are not very startling. They either get announced visually before the jump happens, or they happen during already loud scenes and therefore lack impact.

The military has guns that are used on zombies and to threaten other people. Multiple live people are also shot with guns (slightly graphic).
