Recent findings (audit lane, verbatim)

Face of Fire — The entry states the film is a 'Swedish horror film' and part of a series '1-24 Face of Fire', but the film is an American production, not Swedish, and there is no such series.

Face of Fire — The entry claims Albert Band 'had written the script for the 1951 film Red Badge of Courage'. In fact, Albert Band did not write the script for that film; the screenplay was by John Huston, based on Stephen Crane's novel.

Hour of the Wolf — The entry states that filming took place at 'Hovs Hallar, Stockholm, and on Fårö,' but Hovs Hallar is in Skåne, not Stockholm; the correct locations are Hovs Hallar (in Skåne), the Råsunda Film Studio in Stockholm, and Fårö.

The House That Jack Built (2018 film) — The film is a Danish-French-German co-production; Sweden is not a co-producer.

The House That Jack Built (2018 film) — The claim that the epilogue was suggested by Jenle Hallund is not supported by reliable sources and appears unverified.

Madness (2010 film) — The film is listed as a Swedish horror film but is actually a Swedish production, not an American one; the country should be Sweden, not the United States.

Madness (2010 film) — The film does not have an official MPAA R rating; it was released unrated.

Marianne (2011 film) — The character 'Stiff' is not listed in the actual cast; the character played by Dylan M. Johansson is named 'Stig', not 'Stiff'.

Not like Others — The film is described as Sweden's third vampire film, following Frostbite (2006) and Let the Right One In (2008), but Let the Right One In was released in 2008, the same year as Not Like Others, and its release date (January 26, 2008) is earlier than Not Like

Not like Others — The claim that 'Only one human character, played by David Dencik, has audible dialogue' is factually incorrect; David Dencik plays a character named 'Man at Club' and has dialogue, but other human characters (e.g., the bikers, the boyfriend played by Marcus Ov

Wither (film) — The claim that the first Swedish zombie film shown in cinemas is 'Terror i Rock 'n' Roll Önsjön' from 2001 is unverifiable and likely incorrect; no widely known Swedish zombie film by that title exists in established canon.
