Continuity mistake: After the sequence where Ben tells Barbara she is losing it and then comforts Judy Rose, we see Barbara reloading a shotgun and Ben in the background nailing a white door in the next room. After it cuts to a shot of Judy and Tom nailing another door, we see Ben knock over a table while holding and putting in place the same door he had previously been nailing the window shut with.
