Revealing mistake: When Christine is looking at the obituaries in the café, one of them is for Fredericka S. Freund. However, once you get past the first paragraph the obituary seems to be for Dr. Mary Allen Engle (nee English). Also, they forgot to put "Dr." before Freund's name. It may not be a coincidence that the Property Master for the movie is named Ellen Freund. (01:25:00)
Drag Me To Hell (2009)
1 revealing mistake
Directed by: Sam Raimi
Starring: Justin Long, Alison Lohman, Lorna Raver, Ruth Livier
Continuity mistake: During the seance, the white goat disappears for one shot (from high above the table) and then reappears.
Mrs. Ganush: I beg and you shame me?
Trivia: The old gypsy woman's car has a license plate of "99951" which, when flipped over reads "IS666".
Question: Christine needs $10,000 for a dangerous seance, so she goes to the shed to gather up some items to pawn, whereupon she again encounters Lamia (as Mrs. Ganush). Christine uses her ice skate to slash a rope that conveniently drops a 100-lb blacksmith's anvil on the demon's head. After the demon vanishes, the anvil, rope and chain are seen on the floor where they fell, so it wasn't just a fantasy sequence. Why does petite little Christine Brown (or anybody, for that matter) have a 100-lb blacksmith's anvil suspended 8 feet in the air with rope and chain out in the shed?
Answer: Because it's a film and Sam Raimi obviously thought it was funny. But I did also wonder.
