Continuity mistake: SPOILERS: In the post-credits scene, after Henry's trap starts, in the second-to-last shot, you see him sort of start to shake and rear his head back. But then in the next shot, he's no longer shaking. Additionally, his head is down again and he rears it back a second time.
Saw X (2023)
Directed by: Kevin Greutert
Starring: Tobin Bell, Shawnee Smith, Steven Brand
Deliberate mistake: Per his autopsy in Saw IV, John Kramer was 52 years old at the time of his death, and this film takes place between Saw and Saw II. Tobin Bell was around 80 years old at the time of making this film, and thus looks far too old to convincingly play someone in their early 50s. Amanda Young also looks a lot older in this film compared to other entries in the franchise that are chronologically later.
Visible crew/equipment: When John returns to the clinic to drop off a gift for Gabriele, when the cab pulls up, for a split second, you can see what appears to be the reflection of a crew member (likely part of the camera crew) walking in the green doors right before John opens his door. (It's very hard to see, but you can see it if you pay close attention.)
Trivia: As part of the film's marketing, the studio made a spoof of AMC Theaters' "We Come to This Place" commercial that plays just before films in their theaters start, with Billy the Puppet in place of Nicole Kidman. In response, AMC's CEO, Adam Aron, actually asked Lionsgate to pull the ad, to which the latter obliged.
John Kramer: I still have a lot of work that needs to be done.
John Kramer: Hello, everyone. It's time to play a game. You all pretended to cure me. But what I have planned for each of you, is very real.
Mark Hoffman: Out of all the men to cheat, you pick John Kramer?
Question: What happens to the lady after the film ends that has her head in the hole? As during the film, she shows she has no morals. In the rest of the movies, you never hear her name mentioned or what happened to her. But surely, with him trapping her and taking the money at the end, it would piss her off enough to want to get the money back and seek revenge on him.
Answer: There's no definitive answer. It's left purposely ambiguous, presumably in case they want to bring the character back in the future. (There is a deleted scene on the Blu-Ray showing the door opening on its own once the countdown hits zero, so presumably she is able to escape.) As for her coming for him... we simply don't know. It's possible she'll show up again in a future film. But you also have to factor in that John has a LOT of evidence on her criminal misdeeds... so he likely could have her arrested and jailed if she comes for him.

Answer: If I'm not mistaken, the room she was in was locked. She may have been able to survive the trap by sticking her head through the opening, but if she has no way of leaving the room, eventually she would starve to death.
