Other mistake: In the scene in Angelo's basement after Jobe has killed the Priest and his friend's Father, Jobe transmits a message to Angelo using the VR helmet. In this message we see and hear Jobe describing how he took a boost of medicine, but how did Angelo hear this message? The earphones of the VR headset are positioned above his head and angled away from him. (01:13:40)

Trivia: This was initially advertised as a Stephen King movie; however, King soon sued the filmmakers and demanded his name be taken off the film since, apart from the title, it bears virtually no resemblance to the short story he had written years before.
