Other mistake: When Katie tells Micah to look at their picture after the demon has broken the glass, you can plainly see the girl in the picture is not Katie.

Suggested correction: Yes, it is. She looks a little different in the picture, but it just comes down to the camera angle (it's a high angle) and the weird lighting in the photo (she's in shadow). I also checked out a high-resolution still of the photo in the movie and compared it to a photo of the actress, and they share every minor subtle feature right down to the shape of her teeth. Micah also looks slightly different in the photo too, but it's the same actor. Also, I have to ask what purpose would there be to having a photo with a completely different actress when they could just take one with the actress from the movie?

Trivia

Trivia: As part of a marketing gimmick, the film wasn't going to receive a traditional release. Instead, audiences could click a button online to "demand" their local theaters get a copy, and once an area got enough "demands," a copy would be shipped there. This was done because the studio was worried they wouldn't make enough money if they did a wide release. So many people ended up "demanding" the film, that the studio eventually caved and gave it a wide release. It became a massive hit.

Questions

Question: I hope someone can help me with this: In one of the movie's /teaser/promotional posters, we see Katie and Micah tightly huddled together on the extreme far right of their bed while they look at a shadow of something that is outlined on their bedroom door. I've seen the movie more than once but don't remember that scene. When (or if) does this occur in the movie?

Answer: It's just a movie poster, not showing any part of a scene. Some movie posters may take different parts of the movie and combine them to make a more suspenseful image for the movie poster/teaser. There is a part in the movie with a shadow on the door, and there is a time where they are together on the bed in a similar position. Combine the two to make the poster interesting.
