Plot hole: There is no way Turner should have been able to fool Kale into thinking that he was the club girl, due to obvious differences in his physical appearance to the club girl. Such as his much blatantly larger size and height, especially if he needed fit into the black dress she was wearing (and to top it off, it does looks very much like the actress when "she" gets into the car).

Other mistake: After falling in the pit of water at the end, there is at least one shot (if not more), only a minute or so later (when Turner is stabbed in the leg by Julie), where Kale's shirt appears to be completely dry, when it should be still quite drenched.

Question: Even if Turner planned to stage Kale's murder as a suicide, wouldn't the fact that someone who accused a neighbor of being a serial killer, only to turn up dead only hours later make Turner an immediate suspect? I would think that most serial killers wouldn't be dumb enough to risk having the person who accused them to turn up dead in only a few hours no matter if it was staged as a suicide.
Answer: Turner might be considered a suspect based on Kale's accusation, but there would have to be solid evidence, for which there was none. More likely, it would probably be theorized that Kale's recent erratic behavior and emotional state is what led to his "suicide" and that he had become fixated on Turner and irrationally fantasized and falsely claimed that he was a serial killer.

Continuity mistake: In the classroom scene at the beginning, on Kale's desk is a white book (likely a Spanish dictionary) that is lying on top of a red book and keeps changing position without him touching it. (00:06:45 - 00:07:10)

Continuity mistake: After the first car accident, just before they are hit by the second car, the amount and pattern blood on Kale's face changes slightly at least once, most notably a large scrape on the side of his face that seems to almost disappear. (00:04:10)

Answer: Being a serial killer, Turner is most likely a transient. When he starts to feel threatened (close to being identified as a suspect) or has committed several murders in one area without getting caught, he will sense the need to move on - relocate with a new identity. At least initially, he can portray himself as a law-abiding "gentleman" to reduce/ eliminate suspicion or buy himself enough time to flee the area and avoid getting caught.
