Oh, and Uma has a nose bleed when she overdoses. And I guess Marvin filled the car with blood, but that was a slapstick murder.
That movie isn't about violence at all. It's not about gangsters at all. It's a clever black comedy about people figuring out who they are and dealing with the repercussions of that in the greater world. And I love black comedy.

I'd question your recollection of no blood or violence. But hey, I'm proud of you. Frankly, I found the scene where they are tied up in the chair with the ball gags and they bring in the gimp to be the most disturbing.
