Five Nights at Freddy's picture

Trivia: The waiter who asks Jane and the others if they'd like to order lunch is played by YouTuber Matthew Patrick, who has a video series called "Game Theory" and has done dozens of videos based around the "Five Nights at Freddy's" video-games. Him saying "That's just a theory!" when someone mentions breakfast being called "the most important meal of the day", is an inside joke. (He ends every "Game Theory" video by saying "That's just a theory... a game theory!").

Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey picture

Trivia: A teacher at a Miami charter school showed this film to his 4th-grade class. He allowed them to select the film they wanted to watch, and they picked this, with nobody realising it was a horror film. Apparently, the movie played for over 20 minutes before the teacher shut it off, despite earlier protests from his students about its content.

The Devil Comes at Night picture

Trivia: The "Prime Video" includes a goof/factual error stating: "At 18:26 when Ben looks in the refrigerator there is definitely light illuminating the interior despite there supposedly being no electricity in the house. In addition, he sets his flashlight on the table so it can't be from that." To the contrary, there is no apparent power outage. Jack leaves Ben a note stating "Keep lights off. Stay hidden" and Ben later flicks off the light switch. The reported "factual error" is nonfactual. (00:04:35 - 00:12:07)
