She was bitten so hard & clenched so firmly by the dog that its teeth would have penetrated her skull. And the way the dog banged her horrifically;
When she appeared, there was no sign of injury on her head/face. She was absolutely fine. How the fuck that happen?

Same way the autistic son suddenly started talking and acting like a regular person - possession. The girl was possessed (contracted from the dog) and could probably heal like Wolverine as a result lol. Dead people reanimate, walk and talk (due to the demon inside using their body like an avatar driver) once possessed, so enhanced healing isn't too much of a stretch in this scenario.
shareThen why was the mother still fucked up from the car accident? This rule is inconsistent.
shareYes, this is one of the things that frustrated me the most throughout this movie, is the inconsistencies when it comes to those things.
So the girl definitely gets killed by the dog, but when the dog drags her out of the house and they try to chase after it, somehow there's absolutely no blood trail to follow? Like, there should be a blood trail, so I'm assuming that there wasn't (because, ya know, demons), otherwise they would've followed it to find her?
So the girl is clearly dead from that, but the demon possessing her makes her back home suddenly, all bright and smiley and alive and well. Okay, sure. But, like you mentioned, why wasn't it the same with the mom? They both got hit by the truck, yet when we see the mom later, her legs are miraculously fine, but her face is all torn to shit. Then somehow she gets more mangled from jumping off the balcony (even though the demon possession has the power to fully heal people right away?) and the boy is dead as a doornail, Smalls. So presumably he didn't get possessed or come back to life.
Then there's the goat farmers.
My understanding when watching this last night was that the pregnant wife was worried (or knew) that the demon would possess them and their baby if they killed it (particularly if they shot it), which is why she initially grabbed the axe. I couldn't tell if she was going to kill the goat with the axe or just already knew what she had to do. But I took that scene to mean that she knew it would inhabit them if killed, so that's why she (without hesitation) axed her husband and then herself, so that they would be spared the possession stuff.
My friend, though, thought that right when the goat was killed, the lady was automatically possessed and that's why she killed her husband and herself.
(If anyone has any thoughts on this bit, feel free to share.)
But anyway, with the demon going from one body to the next, why didn't the farmers come back to life with the demon in them?
