There's only a contradiction if you believe that Sakutaro really died in the first place. If he wasn't actually killed, then there is no contradiction at all; it is only natural that someone still alive can't be resurrected. As vendredi pointed out,

Remember, Sakutarou's death was not confirmed in red. His body was destroyed, but there's no reason Maria couldn't have still imagined that she was talking to him.
As for a subway system carrying people onto the island to commit the murders, that really violates the spirit of the island being closed off and nothing from outside being able to interfere. That doesn't make it impossible, but it would be a really lame and unsatisfactory explanation. It would be more satisfying for it to turn out that it was all being done with magic the whole time.
