* NightmareRetardant / SpecialEffectsFailure: There's so many inconsistencies in the deaths it makes the gore much less disgusting.
** The Warden after he transforms is probably the best example in this movie. It's very obvious that it's just a man in a poorly designed ogreish-like suit.

** While she is being treated by the gang leader, Ricky's girlfriend screams out of nowhere and runs away from him while the drug dealers just [[DullSurprise react nonchalantly.]] She then runs to the roof and jumps to her death where we see a dummy dressed like her, whose head is inexplicably pointing the other way, fall and land stiff.

** During the slow motion shot where Oscar swings a saw to an inmate's face, you can clearly see the part of the saw that was cut off so it can fit the inmate's cheek.
** When Ricky's girlfriend jumps off a building, she is replaced a dummy that is inexplicably facing the building and is perfectly parallel to the ground as it falls.
** Everything about the Warden's transformation and monster form, from what appears to be a rubber mask being stretched to show him growing to the very plastic looking suit the stunt double is wearing.
