[Se7en] For the Sloth victim, the doctor says that if someone shined a flashlight in his eyes he would die from shock - is there any scientific truth to this statement given the circumstances?

More than likely, yes. If the human body is put through enough torture or hardships then they're hanging on by a thread. Even minor amounts of stress on the system can prove fatal.

This was actually a problem encountered when the American forces of World War II liberated the concentration camps. Some GIs, horrified about what they had seen and the massive amounts of starvation inflicted upon the inmates by the guards, gave whatever food they could to the liberated, ranging from ration packs to candy. But even the smallest amount of food was too much for them and some of them - after only eating a packet of candy - died from overfeeding.
