At a party at his home, Joseph (Chace Crawford) goes to the bar to pour drinks for Molly (Haley Bennett) and himself. In one camera shot - the drinks (in clear glasses) are translucent white/clear. In the second shot - the drinks have turned pale amber. Back to the first camera angle, the drinks are again translucent white/clear.

Some of the movies that viewers say reminds them of The Haunting of Molly Harley include Rosemary's Baby (1968), The Initiation of Sarah (1978), To the Devil a Daughter (1976), Supernatural TV series [2005-?], Reaper (2000), Carrie (1976), and Point Pleasant TV series (2005).

Why is Molly's mother confined in a mental hospital?

Her stabbing Molly was interpreted as a psychotic episode rather than a criminal act, so Molly's mother Jane (Marin Hinkle) was placed in Clayton Mental Institution. The official diagnosis, according to Dr Emerson, was 'probable psychotic disorder, signs of paranoid schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder accompanied by bipolar disorder.' In actuality, however, Jane was attempting to kill Molly so that the darkness (Satan) wouldn't claim her on her 18th birthday.
