The Boy Next Door (2015)

Revealing mistake: In the flashback of the death of Noah's parents, besides the obvious clichè of insta-explosion on impact, it's obvious in the second shot that the car is exploding from within the passenger seats. (01:09:55)

Factual error: Miss Fisher and the crew on 21 December 1928 dance to the glorious rendition of "I'm Sailing On A Sunbeam" by Des Tooley featuring Frank Coughlan, playing a record that was released only in 1930.

The Boy Next Door (2015)

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the interrogation of O'Malley, during the 'cancer prevention' joke the big cigar in the mouth of Coffin Ed moves to the far right corner in an obvious jump in continuity. (00:54:20)
