Revealing mistake: When Louis sets Gage's lifeless body on fire, it becomes apparent that it is a stunt dummy. The body resembles a small, pale mannequin with vague facial features and a wig.

Revealing mistake: When the mother gets into an accident after her tire blows, the ghost shows up. It is floating above her car. Notice the seam where the ghost is on the car. When the scene shakes slightly, the ghost shakes too indicating it was a poorly superimposed shot.

Question: Why did Louis kill Church at the end? He only planned on killing Gage if he came back like Timmy Baterman did, and he could have just walked in after distracting Church with the meat.
