Continuity mistake: When Molly ties Tanya's whip around a bar to let herself down from the air duct, you can see as she slides down that the whip is knotted at intervals. But a few moments later, when the severed hand draws the whip back up, you can see that there are no knots in it.

Debi: My work here is done. Time for the ritualistic sex.
Trivia: The film's release was greatly impacted by the Columbine tragedy. It was unfortunately scheduled to come out only 10 days after the shooting, and as a result many theaters refused to screen it due to it involving teens and violence. Additionally, several politicians (unfairly) criticized the film immediately after the shooting, earning it a lot of bad publicity. The studio quietly canceled the premiere and dumped it in theaters, where it bombed. It later found a cult audience on home video.
Question: How did Anton not remember that he murdered his own parents when he was a killer all along?
