Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore

Grindelwald's followers attack a female qilin after birth, kidnap one infant, and Grindelwald later graphically slits the throat of the captured baby qilin, showing blood. Newt Scamander and his brother navigate a dark prison where a giant scorpion-like creature impales and eats prisoners, with their regurgitated remains fed to its offspring. Additionally, Jacob Kowalski is subjected to the Cruciatus Curse, a form of magical torture, by Grindelwald's forces.

Grindelwald performs a dark ritual where he uses the blood of a murdered qilin to enchant its corpse, which he then uses for political manipulation. The film centers around wizards and witches using various spells and charms, including intense magical duels like the confrontation between Dumbledore and Grindelwald that causes widespread destruction. The Qilins themselves possess unique magical, 'supernatural abilities' to discern pure hearts, a characteristic some sources argue is typically reserved for divine beings.

A particularly graphic scene occurs in a German prison where Newt and Theseus encounter a giant scorpion-like monster that impales and devours prisoners, flinging their regurgitated remains for its offspring. This scene is described as 'dark and grisly' and 'terrifying.' Another intense sequence involves the painful death of a mother qilin and Grindelwald brutally slitting the throat of its baby, with blood visible, which is noted as disturbing for young children.

Grindelwald's central motivation is to wage war against Muggles and establish wizarding supremacy, openly demonstrating extreme disrespect and defiance towards peaceful coexistence. His followers utilize 'Unforgivable Curses,' such as the Cruciatus Curse, to torture and control opponents, representing severe rebellion against established magical laws.
