Disturbia movie corrections

In the scene when Kale uses the lamp, taking off its lamp-shade, to see what's inside the hole, he points it in there. The lamp, actually, shouldn't illuminate the wall in one point creating a circle like a flashlight but wholly lighten the larger area. See more...

When Kale and Ashley are kissing and Kale is telling Ashley that, "I have a million problems," the movie cuts to a scene where Turner is cutting up a (potential?) corpse. Considering that later on in the movie, it is revealed that he has a big lab where he can do these types of things, why would he cut the corpse (even if it were a deer rather than the club girl) in the open like that? [Character choice, not a movie mistake. Turner knows Kale is on to him. Cutting up the "corpse" of the deer in the open ultimately leads to the police finding out the "body" is just a deer, discrediting Kale's accusations.]

After he has been put on house arrest, Kale is shown making a structure out of twinkies, he is laying them flat. Later when his friend, Ronny, comes over for the first time you see the structure again, but the twinkies are standing upright. [A good deal of time has passed. Not much of a stretch to think he either remade it, or made a completely new one.]

Time

While Mr. Turner is chasing Kale throughout the house, the phone line dies as well as the power. He then says that he needs to 'cross the line' for his ankle bracelet to go off, and for the police to come. However the police would be notified before then because the bracelet's base uses the phone line to report the location of Kale, and wouldn't be receiving any further information from that time. Also, the ankle bracelet would start blinking when the power goes off because the GPS unit in the base needs power to determine the distance between the base and the bracelet, as well as report Kale's location. [Its never said how the police were notified, all that is said was there was more trouble and the officer indicated he was going his time getting there. Although the ankle bracelet blinking is a mistake.]

During the scene in which Kale and Ashley are fighting over the iPod used to play Kale's music during the party at Ashley's house, when they are fighting and the iPod becomes unplugged from Kale's speaker system, the iPod should have automatically stopped playing. The iPod has a feature which cannot be disabled which automatically pauses the music playing when the headphone/speaker cable is unplugged. However, when the iPod is then replugged-in moments later, the song is still playing. [While it's right to say that there is no setting to enable/disable the function mentioned, there is a physical way to have the music play without anything in the headphone jack. After the audio cable is removed, it does go to auto-pause. However, if the play button is pushed whether or not a cable is inserted, the music will play. Considering the way Kale and Ashley were holding the iPod, and even with the iPod behind Kale's back, it's not impossible that the play button was pressed somewhere along the way.]

Time

In the scene where Mr. Turner enters Ashley's car, he takes the keys out of the ignition and uses the remote to lock the car (you hear the car alarm set). However, without unlocking the car, he puts the keys back in the ignition and starts it. This would trigger the immobiliser/car alarm. [Actually, putting the keys in the ignition and starting the car usually overrides most factory installed alarms, in all the cars I have owned it is actually the only way to stop the alarm once it starts going off, we would need more info about this alarm system to say this is a mistake.]

After Kale kills Turner he tosses him into the pit of water. However, just being dead, Turner goes in stiff as a board (instead of his arms and legs dangling) showing it was a dummy thrown into the pit. [It's obviously a stunt double. His arms are "stiff" because he is holding on to the garden shears stuck in his stomach. Dummies used in movies are never stiff as a board anyway.]

During the party the door bell rings, Kale opens it and the neighbor boys throw water balloons. Then Ashley crawls into the window. In the background you can see Kale's bedroom, which is on the second floor, then when Ashley goes to throw the music player she's on the balcony. So Kale's room, the office, the window, the balcony and the front door are apparently all on the same floor. [Kale has walked up to the second floor. The front door is of course on the first floor, but everything else is on the second floor.]

In the scene where Kale is looking at Mr. Turner though the fence and Mr. Turner picks up the rabbit from his garden, you can see the cage he takes it out of. [Exactly. He had rabbit traps in his garden and was removing the latest catch to dispose of it.]

When Turner takes the keys out of Ashley's car, she never put it in park, and you can't take the keys out of a car that is not in park. [You can if the locking tumblers are worn. I used to take the key out of my pickup truck all the time, while I was driving, so I would never lock myself out of the vehicle. I could also start and turn off the truck without a key, as long as I didn't engage the steering wheel lock.]

In the scene where Kale is sitting at home and eating the chocolate covered peanut-butter, he is watching an episode of Cheaters. The TV shows a woman confronting another and the announcer is saying something, but when they have a close up of the TV about 10 to 15 seconds later, they show the exact same footage again, but with different audio. [I've watched Cheaters many times and that's exactly what they do. They'll show a clip of what's to come (with different audio) right before they go to a break. Then when they come back they show the actual footage. ]
