Other mistake: In the hospital, Barrett had his right arm in a sling and his lower left leg in a cast. When the police/ detectives were trying to find Barrett, one detective said Barrett could not have driven himself somewhere because he had "a cast on his leg." The cast was on the left leg, so Barrett could have driven using his right leg, as usual. Maybe he couldn't have driven with a cast on his right arm, but the detective gave the wrong location of the leg cast. (00:50:30 - 01:13:45)

When I see a movie about a "psycho" or obsessed newspaper boy, I use the 1994 "The Paperboy" movie as the standard by which to judge all others... and, so far, nothing has come close. Though not entitled "The Paperboy", "Rosewood Lane" has some similarities and doesn't really offer anything unique or even attention-grabbing. There are scenes that that look like a collection and re-filming of parts of other movies, only not as good. (Some examples: dead body at the bottom of the basement stairs; being in the house uninvited, sneaking around and moving objects; use of nursery rhymes - Hickory, Dickory, Dock or Doc; shooting people with a bow and arrow - done in Ferris Beuller's Day Off" and, more recently, "We Need to Talk About Kevin"; the creepy neighbor who gives a warning; police calls that are deemed unfounded or "crying wolf"; use of non-scary "scary" dogs like the Rottweiler; the psychiatrist or psychologist who has an unresolved family issue, etc.) The one noted difference is the nasty or non-pleasing temperament/ disposition of the female psychologist Sonny, apparently being portrayed as "tough", but instead coming across as unlikable and not fit to be a psychologist in the first place. I had to restart the movie many times before watching to the end, which couldn't come soon enough. I had to rewatch the 1994 "The Paperboy" to get "Rosewood Lane" out of my memory.

Trivia: Nine-one-one (written "911") is used exclusively for the emergency telephone number in the U.S. (Nine-eleven might be used more often in England.) In the case of "nine-eleven", a slash is used to show the separation of the numbers (9/11), which then dictates its pronunciation and distinguishes it (date of terrorist attacks) from the emergency 9-1-1 number.
