Trivia: When Bella puts down the Rainier can next to the other Rainier can in the scene for Charlie (scene where Charlie is cleaning the rifle), note that the two cans line up to form the R in Rainier perfectly. Director Catherine Hardwicke noticed it and said it on the audio commentary.

Trivia: Stephenie Meyer (on the bonus features DVD) discusses how she wishes she had thought of putting the dream sequence in her book that is in the movie. When Bella dreams of Edward in her bedroom, he is in the room. Bella immediately sits up and switches on the light, and he is not in the room. The audience knows that Edward was in the bedroom with Bella, and Stephenie Meyer says, "Oh, I should have done that!" in the book.

General questions
I remember a horror film where these girls were being mean to one girl (teenagers) and she is trying to be part of their clique. They left her in some cemetery/mausoleum as a kind of hazing to get her to be in their clique. One of the popular girls was African American and always had a toothbrush in her mouth. Since they were mean to the girl, bad things started to happen to them at the cemetery. What is the name of this film?

Suggested correction: It's unsettling, but sometimes a lethal head wound leaves the base of the brain that controls autonomic functions like heart beat and breathing intact. These victims may wheeze, bleed profusely, or even convulse vigorously for several minutes before expiring.
