Continuity mistake: In the bridge collapse towards the end of the movie, John's gloves are on then off then on again.
Continuity mistake: John's shoes change from the time he gets out of his car the first time at Gordon's house to when he's inside the house in the bathtub.
Other mistake: John explains to his friend Ed that, within the last two weeks since the accident, Mary has undergone brain surgery to remove the tumor in her right temporal lobe and that she is undergoing chemotherapy. This surgery alone would necessitate shaving at least half of Mary's head, and the chemotherapy would prevent her hair from growing out again for months. But, in the immediate next scene, we see John at Mary's side as she recovers in the hospital, and her red hair with natural hairline is as full and lush as in the beginning of the film.
John Klein: I think we can assume that these entities are more advanced than us. Why don't they just come right out and tell us what's on their minds?
Alexander Leek: You're more advanced than a cockroach, have you ever tried explaining yourself to one of them?
Trivia: John Keel wrote the book "The Mothman Prophecies." In the movie, the character Alexander Leek, is Keel spelled backwards.
