Continuity mistake: In the scene where young Jonesy, Beaver, Duddits, Henry and Pete are trying to find Josie they all place their hands on Duddit's shoulders and do the "psychic link" thing. Henry and Pete have tears on their faces, which they wipe away pretty quickly, then Duddits turns to Pete and he still has tears on his face.

Revealing mistake: When Morgan Freeman is about to take off in the helicopter to chase after the other two chasing Mr. Grey, one of the soldiers who is running to try stop him runs over a small pile of snow. The snow has a very unusual springing nature, obviously the springboard for the stunt, then as a result the soldier falls over.

Factual error: In the scene at the beginning, where Jonesy is in back of the ambulance after being hit by the car while crossing the road, they show the paramedics shocking him with the defibrillator. After the first shock, one of the medics says that Jonesy is still flatline and says to hit him again. This would not normally happen because you don't defibrillate in an Asystole rhythm (flatline).

Visible crew/equipment: When Henry is leaving the store before the storm he opens his door to his jeep/truck. You can see someone's feet on a ladder reflected in the window. The ladder isn't there when he pulls away.

Continuity mistake: This is in the scene when all four guys are eating dinner at the table at Hole in the Wall. When all the guys are discussing the memory warehouse and Beaver doesn't remember what it is, he says, "What's the memory warehouse?" As he says this, he puts the beer bottle up to his lips and is drinking while Pete says, "You don't remember the memory warehouse?" Beaver is taking a long sip of beer. In the next shot, Beaver's hands are folded on the table, with no beer bottle near him. There is no shot or any way in which he puts the bottle down.

Continuity mistake: When the vehicle flips over, the headlights are on and off alternately.

Suggested correction: This has been submitted before and already corrected. She says "Henry, he was so excited." She's talking to Henry saying Duddit was excited.

Gary 'Jonesy' Jones: Pittsfield's a better place to be from, than go back to.

More quotes from Dreamcatcher

Question: My question concerns when Pete and Jonesy are on the skidoo and Pete tells him off, and then Jonsey turns into Mr. Grey and bites his head off. How does something bigger get into something smaller? If Mr. Grey is a hallucination of Jonsey, how does he kill the people he kills along the way to the reservoir. And how goes he separate from the entity and survive when the shit-weasels kill people upon exit?

Answer: Mr. Gray is not a hallucination, he is a living alien creature. Mr. Gray, and the rest of his species, are shape shifters and can also possess other intelligent life forms. He can leave Jonesy's body at will, turn into a red mist to enter another body, and turn into his normal monstrous form to kill if need be. How his species accomplishes this changing of mass is not explained.

Answer: Great question. So think of it this way. Say you are infected with a small virus and it has to multiple and destroy tissue to get to its full potential i.e. the infected man in woods I think his name was Barry. Now imagine a giant full grown parasite like a giant tapeworm is ingested by an adult human, the giant tapeworm doesn't need your cells to live it's already matured, it just needs you to feed it meals from outside as it lives in your digestive track i.e. Jonsey. For your next question. So how does this thing recreate clothing? Well it doesn't, it changes the cellular gradient by turning it's molecules into what we call an airborne hypertonic solution meaning it disbonds from our cells so it's molecules can float outside the clothing and host. Then reanimate onto the outside of the host creating a cellular body to feed or kill then the cells become airborne molecules again, change their gradient back to an isotopic solution to rebond with the human cells including the brain tissue. I have a extensive medical background so I love dissecting these things. Hope this answers your question.

Chosen answer: Mr. Gray is not real and was not ever real. He was a figment of Jonsey's imagination.

Answer: Mr. Gray is a hallucination in the book, and real in the movie.
