The Possession (2012)

Goofs

The Possession

Edit

Continuity

(at around 20 mins) When Clyde is shown lying on his couch throwing a basketball up in the air, a band-aid is seen on the back of his hand, before his hand gets stabbed.
(at around 1h 20 mins) The scene where the family is hugging Em on the Hospital floor, the ring that supposedly makes the possession continue, slips out of Em's finger. Then the ring is shown again in her finger while Tzado tries to remove the demon from Clyde and while Em hugs Clyde. Immediately after that, Tzado catches the ring on the floor, making the scene confusing.
(at around 18 mins) During their first weekend at the new house with their dad, Hannah and her dad have a conversation about how Bret says she has an overbite, dad states her teeth are fine. During that same visit, when Hannah and Em are in the garage, you can see the retainer in Hannah's mouth when she tells Em she'd "...feel better if you just stopped givin' a shit" during that same first visit. Then during their next visit is when you learn Hannah decide to have the overbite "fixed" to fix the "disfigured" way her teeth look.
(at around 1h 17 mins) In the hospital scene towards the end of the movie Clyde goes into the morgue and his hair is considerably longer than it was before so this is obviously a pickup shot.

Factual errors

(at around 1h 9 mins) Although it's not seen directly during the MRI scene, the plot implies that Em never removes the ring. Em would have been unable to wear the ring on her hand during the MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) test. Even if it was non-ferromagnetic (like gold), it could have still interfered with the test and medical staff would have likely removed it prior to bringing her into the room.

Revealing mistakes

(at around 1 min) The Hebrew writing on the side of box in the opening scene appears upside down in relation to the lid and apparently spells out "Dibbuk" backwards. The writing on the lid apparently is backwards Hebrew for "You shall see the punishment of evil".

Crew or equipment visible

(at around 41 mins) When Clyde pulls up to a nearby warehouse to dispose of the box, the camera, cameraman and a camera assistant are all briefly reflected on the back of the side view mirror.
(at around 56 mins) When Clyde goes to Manhattan to talk with Tzadok Shapir; during the first encounter with him at the stairway, the cameraman is momentarily reflected on a store window past the stairway.
(at around 49 mins) The actress' mic and wire are visible under her clothing.

Character error

(at around 45 mins) When Dybuk is asking Emily if it can live inside her ("Czy moge mieszkac W CIEBIE") his grammar is incorrect. Correct question should be "Czy moge mieszkac W TOBIE."
