Factual error: When Ellen gets married in 1907 she is 20, but when she disappears in 1950 she is 70.
Rose Red (2002)
Starring: Nancy Travis, David Dukes, Kimberly J. Brown, Matt Keeslar
Continuity mistake: On the part where Joyce is arguing with Professor Miller (where she cuts her finger) watch her shoulder. As the cameras goes from her to Professor Miller, her purse strap keeps coming and going.
Continuity mistake: When Steve hits redial on the cell phone it goes to Professor Miller's office, but the last number he called was his cell phone.
Trivia: David Dukes, who played Dr. Miller, died from a massive heart attack during the filming of Rose Red while on location in Washington State. The film was dedicated to him.
Ellen Rimbauer: Houses... are alive. This is something we know. News from our nerve endings. If we're quiet, if we listen, we can hear houses breath. Sometimes, in the depth of the night, you can even hear them groan. It's as if they were having bad dreams. A good house cradles and comforts, a basd one fills us with instinctive unease. Bad houses hate our warmth and our human-ness. That blind hate of our humanity is what we mean when we use the word 'haunted'.
Emery: Where are Nick and Cathy, they should've been back by now. Why'd she have to go off on her own, anyway? That was extremely stupid.
Emery: I'm sorry, your call cannot be completed as dialed, just pay your bill and kiss my ass.
Question: After Emery has his fingers cut off and everyone is trapped in the room, Nick informs everyone that Kevin Bollinger hung himself in the Mirror Library after letting Emery's mother into the house. This would make him a ghost obviously, but this creates a problem. How has he been able to appear as a ghost for so long if he must have been alive to let Emery's mother into the house? Did I miss something?
Answer: Then Nick should have said he hung himself before letting Emery's mother in. Also, he turned into a bloated corpse pretty fast but the house has a way of playing tricks.
Question: Why is Annie's picture different from when she was using a black crayon in a circular motion, obviously for the big stone to go through the neighbor's window it's not there anymore when her dad picks up the picture and shows her sister.
