Corrected entry: At the end of the movie, Frank Bennett is killed and his body is barbecued to hide it. We hear Curtis Smoote talking about how good the barbecue smells. Problem: numerous true-crime reports where human beings were actually cooked, all report that the smell of human flesh was intolerably foul and very strong. Even if Smoote has a terrible sense of smell and it didn't bother him, it would have reached the restaurant's customers and/or neighbors, who would have reported that the smell was awful.

Correction: That's as may be, but Frank is not simply being "cooked". This is deep South barbecue, with seasoning and spices and sauces and marinades... The foul smell of human flesh cooking would be absolutely lost in the many savory and delicious smells of the flavoring added to it.
