Valentine (2001) - 20 mistakes
Directed by Jamie Blanks, starring David Boreanaz, Denise Richards, Hedy Burress, Jessica Capshaw, Jessica Cauffiel, Katherine Heigl, Marley Shelton
Continuity: When Paige is in the hot tube, minutes before her death, you can see the killer looking at her. There is a noise, and she looks back for a few short seconds but there has already been a rose placed there for her BEFORE she turns around to see what the noise is, she just doesn't notice it until she turns back around.
Continuity: In the scene right after Shelly's funeral when Kate and 'Adam' are talking by his car, he goes to kiss her when they are done. He tries to kiss her on the lips, but she moves to the side. At first he is kissing her on the left cheek and when the camera changes positions, he is kissing her on her right cheek.
Continuity: In the scene when Kate is in the shower, in the opening shot, in her lounge the camera pans past a bookcase and into the bathroom. Kate then hears a noise, gets out the shower, and finds the water is cut off. When she uses the phone, halfway through her call, her iron overheats. The iron and ironing board are right beside the bookcase that the camera panned past in the opening shot. Trouble is, the iron and ironing board weren't by the bookcase in the opening shot.

Continuity: At the end, when the killer leaves Denise Richards a rose, you can see how badly the scene has been edited. If you watch closely you’ll see that the rose appears from nothing - one moment there is nothing and the very next moment it is there, and it certainly doesn’t look like someone’s putting it, as it should be.
Revealing: When the Cherub grabs Ruthie and throws her into the shower glass panel, look very closely and the glass is all smashed before she even touches it. Submitted by Hamster
Factual error: In the scene where the cherub stabs all the body bags, when he finds the one the girl is in and stabs her, they show blood draining down through the tube. That only happens when the body is on the draining table. Are we to think there was a hole in the bag? And even if there was there's no way blood could have filled up the bag and drained out that fast.
Revealing: When Kate is on the phone complaining about the water being cut off, the iron overheats. Kate then runs over to it, and the shadow of a crewmember is cast on the iron and ironing board, then moves out of sight. Submitted by Hamster
Deliberate "mistake": Paige's stunt double being thrown into the hot tub is obvious. Submitted by Hamster
Continuity: When Campbell is in the basement, he drops a book of matches. They fall all over the floor, but in the next shot they change their position and lay in a neat little formation. Submitted by Grigory the Wanderer
Continuity: When Adam gives Kate the lollipop as a gift, Kate writes "IOU TLC" on a laundry ticket. As she takes the ticket out her bag, there is the number "6443" printed in red on it. When she hands him the ticket though, the number is now "6335." Submitted by Hamster
