There are multiple torture scenes over the course of the series, including a man being repeatedly whipped before having a nail driven through his palm and being shocked with an electric cord, a man having nails hammered through his hands before being hoisted into the air, and several people being cut and stabbed many times with knives and scalpels.
In one season 5 episode a man is stabbed in the stomach and then has his neck pretty brutally bitten out.
A man's tooth is pulled out with pliers.
In season 7, a woman ripped out a chunk of a man's neck with her mouth. Seconds later she scooped out his eye with a spoon. Probably one of the more graphic scenes of the season. There is a lot of blood.
