Genres: Drama, Horror, Mystery, Thriller
Continuity: When Kate, Max and Esther are in the grocery store, you can see 7Up packs on the bottom shelf. Then Kate's phone rings and when she answers it, you can see that on the shelf are 7up bottles instead of 7Up packs.
Plot hole: Near the middle of the film, Daniel tells Max that he plans to get the hammer to prove Esther's guilt so their parents will "have to believe them". This makes no sense, as Kate has asked them repeatedly if Esther has hurt them or done or said anything strange. So why is Daniel indicating that his mom wouldn't believe him if he told her what he saw? Kate has been suspicious of Esther since the beginning and Daniel's tattling would surely only confirm Kate's suspicions.
Continuity: After Esther suffocates Daniel in the hospital, Kate slaps Esther in the face. The hospital staff then hold down Kate and she drops her I-phone, screen down. The I-phone starts ringing, even though the screen is facing the floor. In the next scene, it is still ringing, but with the screen facing upwards.
Continuity: Kate comes out from the frozen waters and she swaps from totally wet to dry between angles.
Character mistake: Hypopituitarism and proportioned dwarfism are very different diagnoses.
Other: When Max is playing Guitar Hero with his friends, after he and his friends leave the game to go outside, if you look closely at the TV, you can see that the game is still playing (notes are still being strummed) even though there is no one at the controls.
Other: When Esther is in her room and you are seeing that she is not a little girl but in fact an adult, she takes her teeth out. They're the nice teeth covering her bad ones. However when she sets them down, you can see that they are the wrong teeth. She has taken her bad prop teeth out and set them down, when it should have been the nice ones. You can see right before she takes them out that her teeth look nice. When she sets them down they are the bad set.
Other: When Esther comes into the living room to attempt to seduce John, he is drunk and the first few shots of her are blurred as though it was from his point of view. The problem is that the camera is a couple of feet from the couch. From where John is sitting, the point of view shown in the blurry shots is impossible.
Continuity: Early in the film, at one point, the family returns home and it is snowing lightly. The windshield wipers stop and there is a brief overhead shot of the mother near the car and too much snow has collected on the windshield of the car. Not enough time has passed to allow that much snow to collect on the car.
Continuity: In the early part of the movie, the first time Kate goes to the bathroom to take a pill, the door on the medicine chest changes. The bottle with the eye dropper lid is visible when it is first opened. Then it is almost totally covered in the very next shot.
Continuity: When Danny is playing "Guitar Hero," the difficulty setting is at least hard (all 5 notes are coming down the screen, this only happens in hard or above) yet he is only playing the first three notes and with nowhere near enough speed for a hard song.
