Content Warnings

⭐ IMDb Parents Guide 🛡️ Common Sense Media

a dog dies
spoiler At about 17 minutes til end, Angela is trapped by the dog in a car and stabs it in the neck with a tire iron to escape. Warn anyone sensitive to it as it does not die easily.
someone is sexually assaulted
spoiler The main woman is assaulted both by a co-worker and by her stalker. The coworker tries to forcibly kiss her, and the stalker films himself touching her breast, then lifting her skirt (he also changed her into a dress) while she is passed out. She smashes the TV playing the footage, so there's no telling if any more happened.

Yes
animals are abused
spoiler You could say that the dog is abused in that the guy sics his dog on the captive woman, ultimately leading to his death.
