Corrected entry: In the water cave scene where Cliff shoots Nick in the head, Nick is facing Cliff, who is to his right side. However, later, when Nick is revealed to have survived the gunshot due to the metal plate in his skull, the dent from the bullet is located on the back-left of Nick's head. This would have been the opposite side of his head from where Cliff had been shooting from.

Continuity mistake: When Gina is sitting down with the camera at the beach, she picks the camera up from the towel, doesn't move an inch, but in the shot from above, the towel is nowhere to be seen.
Question: There are 2 scenes in the movie that I am confused about. Both of them take place BEFORE we find out that Cliff and Cydney are the real killers. The first takes place towards the begining when Cliff and Cydney are pretending to be going to the bathroom behind a tree watching the killers (themselves) on the security camera. The second is when they are in their tent (with Gina in the background gutting the goat). In both scenes, Cliff and Cydney appear to be afraid and very concerned about Gina and Nick being the real killers. In the tent scene, they talk about leaving Nick and Gina behind because they think they're the killers. Why are Cliff and Cydney even talking about this if THEY are the real killers?
Answer: They're not afraid the other couple are the killers, they're afraid they may be recognized on the video and that the other couple might figure out who they really are.

Correction: When Nick realizes that Cliff has a gun, he turns his head away from him revealing the whole back of his head to Cliff. This leaves Cliff the ability to shoot Nick anywhere in the back of the head.
