When Rachel had blood all over her and three dead children at her feet, asking Teddy to give her a hand, the scene cuts a couple of times to Teddy's face with a cigarette in his mouth. These scenes are being played backwards, with smoke going into his cigarette rather than coming from it. This is a technique used by the filmmakers in editing for effect. It is deliberate and used to create a dreamlike atmosphere. Another use of reverse motion is seen when Dolores walks backward away from the lake in a flashback to the lake.
