Towards the end of the Beaumont party scene, Alex and the security guys are in the hallway with the killer statues. One of the security men falls to the floor and his earpiece falls off. Throughout the scene, it keeps changing position from being on the floor next to him, to back on his ear, to being on his ear in a different position.

During the party scene, a woman wearing a green dress can be seen lying dead on the floor, a few scenes later we can see her alive and running out of the house with the crowd.
