Poltergeist III

Continuity mistake: When Pat and Bruce are in the garage being chased by the cars covered in ice and snow, the cars pull out to face them and you can see that the windscreens on the cars have tiny spy holes for the drivers to see through. In the next shot, when the cars are still and parked, the spy holes have been covered up.

Continuity mistake: At the end of the movie, when Bruce is carrying Carol Anne out of the mirror, you can see that Carol Anne is wearing some type of heel sneakers and when they come out of the mirror, her pajamas have feet.

Continuity mistake: When Scott and Donna return to the pool with the snacks, the position of the Coke cans that Scott is holding changes before he and Donna kiss. Note the position of the barcodes. (00:45:00)

Revealing mistake: When Carol Anne has been hypnotized by the shrink, a hand breaks through the desk and throws a coffee mug through the mirror. You can briefly see the reflection of the plexi-glass protecting the actors behind the mirror as the mirror breaks.

Trivia: At several points in the film, Carol Ann's movements do not sync up with her movements in the mirrors in her bedroom. Director Gary Sherman confirms on the Scream Factory commentary track that this was actually done on purpose, given the nature of the mirrors in the movie and the evil counterparts of several characters.

Question: Whatever happened to Scott, Donna's boyfriend? Donna and everybody else returned after Tangina left with Kane, but did he?

Answer: At the end of the movie, it was a different actress who played Carol Ann as the actress had already died by that point. Rumor has it that the actor who played Scott was so distraught over her death that he couldn't come back to film the scene.
