House

Revealing mistake: Later into the film Roger realises that his aunt's paintings hold some significance to the whereabouts of his missing son. He removes a cloth from the top left of a painting revealing an image of his son trapped in his bathroom cabinet. Note the cabinet door is the wrong way round to the one in his bathroom.

Revealing mistake: While Roger is in the bathroom he hears banging, and when he opens the door he sees the gardening tools poised to attack, and in the shot from the bedroom facing Roger, we can see the stunt wires attached to the hedge shears as it hovers in front of the door's wood casing.

Continuity mistake: When Roger returns from leaving his partner Ben who is captured by the Vietnam enemy, note the position in which Harold is holding the stoker object in his right hand whilst propped on the mattress, it moves from his stomach to his upper chest between cuts.
