Killer Joe (2011)

Goofs

Killer Joe

Edit

Continuity

When Chris returns home after Digger's thugs beat him up, his teeth are perfectly white, yet in the close-up shot, they are all bloody and messed up.
When Joe attacks Chris in the trailer, he picks up a can of food. He has his palm across the top of the can. In following shots, he has his hand around the side of the can.
When Sharla is leafing through the photos, she's is using both hands in the close-up and the photos are loose. In the next view she is holding the packet of photos in one hand and the phone with the other.
When Joe opens the trunk of the car Adelle's eyes are open, but when he moves her body to the driver's seat the eyes are closed.

Possibly due to being rubbed by the blanket they wrapped her in, none too gently.

Factual errors

There is no Off Track Betting (OTB) in Texas.

Incorrectly regarded as goofs

When Joe is pouring the alcohol on Adele she can be seen swallowing and breathing.

Flickering lights and shadows mimic movement. These actions did not actually happen.
During the train track scene with Chris and Dottie, his facial scars are missing.

From the first view of his face at 01:06:52 until the end of the scene at 01:08:48, his facial damage was visible. One shot of him facing the Sun looked like no damage, but they were just lost in the glare.
When Joe punches Sharla in the face her nose and face are full of blood. However, in subsequent scenes Joe has no blood on either of his hands.

In a subsequent scene, while Joe is wrapping a napkin around Sharla's chicken leg, his knuckles are very visibly bloody.

Revealing mistakes

Around 00:59:25, when Joe pours alcohol over the lips of the woman's dead body in the driving seat of the car, her lips twitches.

The reflections off the liquid mimic movement. She didn't twitch.

Crew or equipment visible

After Joe lights the fire to burn up the car we see in the next shot a set of pipes added to the undercarriage of the car to aid and/or assist with the stunt car fire and/or extinguishing of the fire.
