bloodiness

State of carnage

Bloodiness is the quality of being bloody—covered in, involving, or characterized by blood.

It can describe the literal gore of a wound or crime scene: The bloodiness of the battlefield shocked even veteran soldiers.

It also applies to violent content in media: Critics objected to the film's gratuitous bloodiness.
