    • Trivia
      When Isaac arrives at the island in the beginning of the movie, he brings no supplies or clothes for a five day stay; the boat is empty.
    • Goofs
      48 minutes in, when Isaac is looking at the corpse in the basement through the hole in the wall, he shines his flashlight on her face, and when he shines the light on her eye, her pupil dilates. This would not happen in a corpse. In fact, doctors check pupil dilation to see if a patient is brain dead. And the pupil will already fully relax (dilate) after death.

    Starts off very strong. Then just meanders to an ending.
    Sad too. Because I was really enjoying the rabbit stuff. And the harness thing. And the Memento-style whodunit aspect. But it seemed to reveal all its tricks way too early and the filmmakers didn't know what to do with the nifty elements they created, leaving a muddled, dragging and repetitive second half.

    I wish it worked better.
