Continuity mistake: Before Iggy gets his horns, he got a shot of whisky in the bar from the blonde girl. The level of whisky changes between shots.
Horns (2013)
1 continuity mistake
Directed by: Alexandre Aja
Starring: Daniel Radcliffe, Heather Graham, Joe Anderson, Max Minghella, Juno Temple, Sabrina Carpenter
Deliberate mistake: During the entire movie nothing is mentioned about the rape of Merrin until the very end, even though it is quite obvious for a forensic investigator to determine she was raped, and something like that would be very important to help find a suspect. This is done deliberately to continue the plot as rape would make Iggy less of a suspect (being her boyfriend for years) and someone like Lee more (known by Iggy and others he had feelings for her).

Suggested correction: Boyfriends (and even husbands), are routinely accused of and found guilty of raping their partner. Given that they were seen arguing and told by the waitress that she saw Ig dragging Merrin to his car, there's no reason to think the police wouldn't suspect Ig of rape. We don't see any of the proceedings and we are told only a little bit of information about how the characters got to where they are at the start in order to build suspense, it has nothing to do with continuing the plot.
Merrin Williams: You deserve better.
Ig Perrish: Finally, something we agree on.
Trivia: Final film of famed production designer Allan Cameron. Cameron got his start on television, and went on to be well-known for his work in sci-fi, action and fantasy films, such as 1999's "The Mummy," "Starship Troopers," "Willow" and "Highlander." He sadly passed away a few years after the film's release.
Question: Three questions: 1. Does Ig have his name cleared? 2. What happens to Veronica the waitress after Ig gets revenge on her? 3. How come Ig's parents hate him and do they even miss him at all after his death?
Answer: Most of these questions weren't answered in the film. 1: Eric (the police officer) goes with Terry to find Ig alive. It's unlikely he or Terry told anyone else at that point, so his name wouldn't have been cleared by the end of the movie. Whatever subsequent investigation occurred might have brought the truth to light, but we don't even know if Terry made it back alive. 2: Nothing is mentioned of Veronica after the attack. It's implied she didn't die though because Ig says it will be months before she tries to look pretty. Most likely her hopes or chance of becoming famous ended. 3: The things negative things they said we're only when Ig had his horns. His taped and murder accusations put a lot of strain on them. It seemed he never bonded with his Father like Terry did. They don't show enough of their reaction to gauge if they missed Ig, but it does seem they are heartbroken, but also focused on Terry after finding him strung out on drugs.
