Creepy villain, dark/scary locations, and a couple of large, scary worm-like monsters. A leader orders an entire planet destroyed. An officer orders an entire fleet destroyed. Many weapons are used in addition to lightsabers: blaster guns, planet-killer weapons, bombs, grenades, daggers, arrows, fighter planes. A few deaths will be extra emotional for audiences. A couple of key characters are presumed captured or killed. Spoiler alert: Several primary and supporting characters are killed, and nearly everyone is injured at one point. One character's wound is shown close-up a skeleton is seen.

A few explicit but not bloody deaths: A non-human severed head is unceremoniously presented to the First Order (some greenish goop, but no red blood), a traitor is summarily executed, an entire field of Resistance forces is shown dead, a character's skin and face crumble/melt away, Kylo Ren kills and maims many enemies with his lightsaber. Tons of sci-fi action violence, both large-scale space battles/explosions and one-on-one duels, shoot-outs, tense chases/crashes.
