Teaching Mrs. Tingle

Other mistake: In the scene where Mrs. Tingle is on the loose and threatens Leigh Ann with the bow and arrow, she is really scared. But when Jo Lynn takes the bow away from Mrs. Tingle and threatens to shoot her, Mrs. Tingle shows her that she can't shoot her because the arrow is on the desk. Why would Leigh Ann be afraid of Mrs. Tingle then, if the arrow was on the desk? (01:22:00)

Suggested correction: The arrow was in the crossbow. Ms. Tingle slipped it out when the bow was taken from her.

Other mistake: Sometimes in some scenes, you can see Mrs. Tingle's bra before they even open her pyjama jacket. For example, when Luke is feeding her the hamburger.

Visible crew/equipment: At the very end of the movie, during the best student award, while the graduates are applauding you can see a sound engineer with a microphone pole on the right side. (01:28:15)

Trivia: Helen Mirren has given different reasons for taking the part of Mrs. Tingle. She was reportedly intrigued by the devilish role because it was unlike anything else she had ever played, and she enjoyed how the film showed the turbulence of adolescence. She also quipped that she got paid a "shitload of money" and that it was an easy job because she spend most of the film tied to a bed in a comfy nightgown making catty comments.
