Other mistake: At the end of the movie Lorraine has to remind Elise that she helped her once, implying they haven't seen, or spoken since. When Elise first meets Josh in the 1st insidious she tells Josh that her and Lorraine have been friends for a long time, implying they talk or see each other regularly.
Insidious: The Last Key (2018)
Directed by: Adam Robitel
Starring: Lin Shaye, Josh Stewart, Kirk Acevedo, Javier Botet
Suggested correction: That's debatable as the word "friend" does have to do with semantics. I have friends I have not spoken to in a long time, or speak with rarely, but still consider them friends due to our history. Others would say that's not a friend as that's not what they think of when they hear the word "friend." So it does depend on the individual person. It's also quite possible this is what they told Josh as the cover story for why she was contacted since they initially didn't want him to remember his past.
Continuity mistake: When Elise's nieces enter the diner shortly before they first meet, they walk by Elise. The shot cuts to another angle, and suddenly her nieces walk by Elise a second time. (You can tell from the shadows that move over Elise).
Continuity mistake: When Elise flees her house when she's 16, Christian follows behind her, calling for her. Suddenly, as Christian reaches the bottom of the stairway outside, their father Gerald appears right behind him. This is impossible... Gerald was nowhere to be seen in the previous few shots of the stairway, and furthermore, it was shown that he was walking with a cane and moved slowly as a result, so he wouldn't have been able to catch up to them that quickly. He just sort of... magically appears.
Trivia: The only film in the franchise to not use the series' trademark screeching violins over the opening title card. In addition, it's the only sequel in the series to use a subtitle instead of "Chapter" and a number, with the previous two films being referred to as "Insidious: Chapter 2" and "Insidious: Chapter 3."
