** As the protagonists are performing a ritual to contain the demon, it forces Lucas to pick truth or dare, with truth being an option. [[TooDumbToLive Lucas picks Dare]], and the demon instantly forces them to disrupt the ritual, ruining the protagonist's chances of stopping the ritual, until Olivia realizes she can force the demon into the game.
** Despite realizing that she can bring Calax into the game, it seemingly never occurs to Olivia that she and Markie could use the "two truths, one dare" rule to create a scenario in which Calax was forced to pick dare, at which point they could have dared it to end the game.

* EightDeadlyWords: None of the characters are worth caring about.

** SyFy's "Truth or Dare" film also had a character named Carter who brought the other characters to the haunted house. Unlike Blumhouse's film, this Carter had no idea about the house's powers and just simply rented the house because he heard a story about it and thought that it was just a joke and just wanted to have fun with his friends.

* WhatAnIdiot: Despite realizing that she can bring Calax into the game, it seemingly never occurs to Olivia that she and Markie could use the "two truths, one dare" rule to create a scenario (i.e. add only one player in the game and tell that said player to pick dare and then afterwards, Olivia and Markie can both pick truth) in which Calax was forced to pick dare, at which point they could have dared it to end the game.
