During the thunderstorm at the end, the thunder comes every couple of seconds, it doesn't correspond to the lightning at all, and it sounds exactly the same every time. See more...

Comments made in brackets are corrections from other visitors. As such, any aggressive/abusive corrections (and I get quite a few) written as if they're comments I've made myself will be ignored. To submit your own corrections for mistakes, just click the edit icon under an entry, then choose "correct entry". Some entries have "duplicated entry" after them - these are entries which were already listed on the main page, but were submitted again. I occasionally leave these online for a while, just in case they were moved in error, so don't worry about pointing them out to me.
In the scene where the man is beheaded by a sheet of glass sliding off the back of a truck, if you watch it in slow motion on the DVD version, you can see that his head pops off before the glass hits his neck, and in the opposite direction to what is expected; the back of his neck gets cut, not the front. [You have the wrong movie. No one was beheaded by a sheet of glass in the original "Amityville Horror" film.]
When there is the shot of the basement door straining on its hinges to open, it is visible that there is no latch on the edge of the door to break out the jamb, or to even hold the door shut. [While it looks like you're seeing the door straining against a latch that isn't there, what you're actually seeing is the door frame being separated from the wall by the latch. The door is closed and latched and it's the latch that's causing the frame to bulge out like that. Thus, you wouldn't be able to see the latch, since it's "buried" in the frame. Later, after the door has burst open and the cop has arrived and is investigating, the door frame is splintered and loose from the wall.]
At the end of the movie, during "the last night", we see that the tree smashes through one of the windows in the attic. Later, when George returns to the house to get the dog, there's an outside shot where both windows are intact. [I have noticed that too, but have never been sure which side of the house they are shooting from. The famous half moon windows are on both sides of the house.]
