Deliberate mistake: In the final shot of the film, Jill's head moves slightly when she's supposed to be dead. In the commentary, Wes Craven confirmed this wasn't strictly intentional, but he decided to leave the take in on purpose in case he decided to bring her back in a future installment. But unless a sequel proves she's still alive, it's technically a mistake, albeit a deliberate one.
Scream 4 (2011)
Ending / spoiler
Directed by: Wes Craven
Starring: Courteney Cox, David Arquette, Neve Campbell, Lucy Hale
Jill and Charlie are the killers. Jill kills Charlie with the intent of framing him for the murders and making it look like Jill is the hero, just like Sidney was. Jill stabs Sidney to keep her quiet and then makes it look like Charlie killed Sidney and Jill saved the day. Jill is taken to the hospital, but finds out that Sidney survived. She tries to kill Sidney, who eventually electrocutes her and shoots her. But the media reports that Jill is a hero, meaning that she got what she wanted.

Rachel: A fucking 'Facebook' killer... You're kidding me right?
Chloe: I guess now it would be Twitter, that'd make more sense.
Trivia: While the film is primarily written by "Scream" and "Scream 2" writer Kevin Williamson, due to a hectic production schedule, "Scream 3" writer Ehren Kruger was brought on to do some last-minute rewrites during filming. However, Kruger chose to go uncredited, as he mainly worked on "polishing up" scenes originally written by Williamson.
Question: When Jill and Kirby were watching "Shaun of the Dead", and Ghostface calls them, how did he know they were watching that?
Answer: Also, pretty sure they told Olivia over the phone what they were watching and Ghostface was in the closet listening.

Answer: Remember that Jill and Charlie were the killers and were working together. Therefore, Jill probably told Charlie the film they were planning on watching. Meaning when he called Kirby he knew what she and Jill were watching, which makes the killer more sinister and omnipresent.
