Road House

Revealing mistake: When Swayze gets into a fight in the bar office with an employee who was recently fired, he ends up going through a window with another thug during the fight. Watch carefully as they go through the window. The falling man has a hair style significantly different from Swayze; it's his stunt double. It's more obvious as he hits the table in the continued shot. (00:38:25)

Revealing mistake: Right before Bigfoot drives through the dealership, you can see that the doors and windows of the dealership are on temporary stands and not attached to the concrete. (01:25:15)

Revealing mistake: The story takes place in Missouri. In a brief scene just before the monster truck wreaks havoc at the car dealership, Patrick Swayze and Kelly Lynch are shown driving toward the camera. In the background, a highway sign shows "Ventura" and the highway number. It's a California sign.

Visible crew/equipment: When Dalton is getting the antenna at Red's, when the camera scans to show red, you can clearly see someone handing him the antenna through the shelves. (00:34:05)
