The Girl Who Played With Fire picture

Audio problem: DVD version. In the scene where Lisbeth is about to be buried alive, she gets shot three times by her father as she tries to run away. The sound effect of the gunfire includes the tinkling of a spent cartridge hitting the ground (clearly heard in the rear right). However, the father's gun is seen to be a revolver, which does not eject spent casings when fired - the spent casings stay in the cylinder. (01:50:30)

Laid to Rest picture

Factual error: The scene where Princess and Steven are in Chrome Skull's truck, they are trying to dial 911. They are denied access because the phone is password protected. This would never happen. Even though there is a lock on the phone, it would be automatically deactivated for 911 calls. When you lock your cell phone to protect it from unwanted usage, the phone will deny all usage EXCEPT 911 calls.

I Love You, Beth Cooper picture

Factual error: Kevin and his buddies go to graduation in Army dress. While the ribbons displayed are hard to identify, several things are sure. They don't have a Washington National Guard ribbon, so they're regulars, and they have no Middle East service ribbons. So just where did they acquire so much fruit salad?

The Collector picture

Continuity mistake: Approximately 10 minutes into the movie the main character is going to burglarize a house and there is a guard dog on a chain in the yard that bites him, through a black mask, on his left cheek. After he is in the upstairs bedroom trying to open a safe, you can see blood around the hole near his left eye, but when he pulls off the mask, there is no longer blood on his left cheek, or any signs of a puncture wound.

Angel of Death picture

Continuity mistake: During the fight in the bathroom, Zoe and the villain break a bathroom stall door and side-wall down. In the next shot the door is back up in its original position. It is the same door that is beside the urinal, not another stall, as it's a small bathroom with only one stall and urinal. (00:28:30 - 00:30:00)

Leaves of Grass picture

Continuity mistake: When Billy and Bolger are driving down the road after the funeral, they are on a 2-lane road, with nothing but grass and trees on either side. But when the shot changes so they're facing the camera, it's a 4-lane road with a lot more traffic. Then the road becomes much bigger with a median.
