Revealing mistake: After Steven Wilkins disguised as a vampire kills the unnamed woman he closes her eyelids to make it look like she's asleep. Just before his hand contacts her eyelids you see her almost blink, revealing she's very much alive.
Trick 'r Treat (2007)
Directed by: Michael Dougherty
Starring: Dylan Baker, Lauren Lee Smith, Quinn Lord, Rochelle Aytes
Other mistake: When the Principal's son is yelling at his dad to help him with "Jack o'lantern, especially the eyes," he hadn't even killed Billy yet. So how did he need help with a "Jack o'lantern" that had yet to be provided? He was still struggling with him in the backyard.
Trivia: The movie was originally scheduled to be released in theaters in October, 2007. Its trailer was even attached to several films. However, the studio pulled its release at the last moment with no explanation. It was finally released direct-to-video with little advertisements or notice two years later. Ironically, despite being dumped onto home-video with little fanfare, the film garnered excellent reviews and won several awards, and built enough of an audience through word-of-mouth alone that director Michael Dougherty confirmed a sequel will be made.
Billy: Let's carve a scary face this time.
