Other mistake: When the security system is armed, you can see the barricades are smooth steel panels running inside the outer walls, obviously on runners. Now, how do you attach a chain to a smooth steel panel and how do you rip it out without bringing the whole wall down? When Charlie lets the fugitive in, the panel is at least 1in thick. There is absolutely no way anyone is getting through that without specialised tools or heavy machinery.

Continuity mistake: After Mary slams Grace's face into the table, the blood on her face keeps changing size and shape.
Mary Sandin: We are gonna play the rest of this night out in motherfucking peace. Does anyone have a problem with that?
Question: Why didn't those purge people just go find someone else? Why waste all their time on one house and why did the girls go around in flimsy dresses and barefoot on a cold night?
Answer: Shortly after letting the black guy into their house, the gang leader tells James that he (the black man) killed one of their members, and they wanted revenge.

Answer: These purgers are pretty crazy. They were hunting this person, a homeless man, and they wanted to kill him specifically. They wanted their prize, the trophy of their hunt. And they won't let anyone stop them as it's their right. So being blocked from their target only increases their desire.
