History Trivia / TheFinal

* FakeAmerican: Marc Donato (Dane) is Canadian.

** During the needle scene, quite a few of the prop needles went through the prosthetic neck and chest - and pierced Daniel Ross's chest.

* ExecutiveMeddling: The original poster depicted the outcasts with guns hovering over school girls. After some controversy they were forced to change it.

* RealitySubtext: Despite playing one of the GirlPosse Whitney Hoy is said to be one of the sweetest cast members. Then Bridget turns out to have HiddenDepths.

* UnintentionalPeriodPiece: The movie is recognisable as a late 2000s piece for several reasons: Emily is a typical late 2000s emo, and is mocked for it by the GirlPosse. Jack, Bernard and Ravi all have haircuts heavily associated with late 2000s fashion. The bullies are invited to the party with a flyer - rather than an event invite on Facebook[[note]]While the outcasts would be trying to hide the location of the party, there would still be a HandWave explaining why they don't use social media to do it.[[/note]] - and social media is never mentioned otherwise. The cellphones used also mark the movie as being made before smartphones, as is the scene that shows the outcasts setting up webcams (which could be done with smartphones these days). The lax attitude towards bullying is also reminiscent of the era.

* ShoutOut: Emily's outfit, and the scene where she tortures the JerkJock Bernard, are big ones for ''Film/{{Audition}}''. If one listens closely, she even says "deeper, deeper" as she drives the first needle into Bernard's neck.
