Carrie (1976) - 4 major mistakes
Directed by Brian De Palma, starring Amy Irving, John Travolta, P.J. Soles, Piper Laurie, Sissy Spacek (add more)
Continuity: In the scene where Carrie is looking at herself in the mirror in her room, the glass smashes and you see the fragments fall on the dressing table. On this dressing table there is a night light figure of Holy Mary holding baby Jesus and it has clearly been broken. Later in the scene, you see the night light again and it is intact.
Continuity: When Carrie breaks a mirror in her house late in the movie, you could see it was shattered. But when her mother enters, the mirror only has a few cracks in it. If Carrie put the pieces back with her mind, wouldn't there be more cracks?
Revealing: At the very end, when the girl is walking towards Carrie's grave site to place flowers on the grave, a car in the distance crosses an intersection backwards, giving away the method used to create the weird walk - playing the film in reverse.
