To submit your own corrections for mistakes, just click the edit icon under an entry, then choose "correct entry". Some entries have "duplicated entry" after them - these are entries which were already listed on the main page, but were submitted again. I occasionally leave these online for a while, just in case they were moved in error, so don't worry about pointing them out to me.
Isn't it strange that the cops never thought to look in the local sperm donor banks for their killer? They were totally baffled as to where he got two samples. [This is a typical character error. Fertility clinics would be the best place to start, but they most likely did not think that it would be so simple, seeing how much trouble Kurten went through to copy other people's crimes in minute detail.]

At the start of the film when Sigourney tells all the white males in the audience to stand up, there is a fairly confused looking oriental guy in the middle of the frame standing up. [Character mistake, if anything. Like you say, he is fairly confused. Maybe he was not paying too much attention, or maybe he is half Caucasian and therefore not sure whether to stand up or not.]

Near the end in the toilet scene, Holly Hunter's white blouse is splattered with blood. A few moments later on the roof the blouse is brilliantly white. [The part that has blood on it is covered by her jacket. All you see on the roof is the collar.]

The serial killer is copying the style of murder of some of the most ruthless serial killers ever. He copies Jeffrey Dahmer's by drugging a gay guy at a bar, puts a bag over the guy's head until he suffocates, then saws off the head and disposes of the body in a river. This is not how Dahmer did it! Dahmer did not suffocate them and he did the killings at his home, not an alley. He also cannibalised the bodies and kept the skull in his fridge. [Dahmer killed 17 men, he didn't cannibalise them all, he started killing before he had his own home, so really he could have killed one in this way.]
When Hudson realizes someone is in her house she grabs a knife out of the wooden knife holder. It makes the hollywood "shing" sound but how could this be if it came out of a wooden holder not a metal one? [Once I read this comment, I decided to see if the knife in the wooden holder would make the "shing" sound. I have the wooden knife holder and it DOES make the shing sound if you pull it out quickly like she did.]
In one of the last scenes at the bathroom where M.J. Monahan is being shot by Peter Foley, she is wearing a bulletproof west, the mirror behind her still breaks. It can't be due to the sound, because they're not all breaking. [She is shot once in the bullet proof vest, and once in the shoulder, which goes through and shatters the mirror.]
The killer is trying to replicate Harry Connick Jnr's attack on Sigourney near the end of the film, but he forgot about the two pieces of toilet paper she put on the seat. It seems strange that someone who is such a stickler for detail would leave something like that out, especially since the filmmakers made such a big deal out of it originally (there were detailed close ups of the paper being put on the seat). [I believe the camera was just following Hudson going through the motions of using the bathroom and also following Connick's motions of preparing for his kill. If you notice how Hudson was kicking when she was being lifted up I'm sure the toilet paper fell to the floor, therefore Connick, the second killer or anyone else who may have taken pictures of the scene would not have even noticed it as a big deal.]
Isn't it strange that Sigourney's character is meant to be agoraphobic (afraid of large spaces), but she lives in an apartment bigger than your average football field. It's only when she ventures into the (much smaller) corridor that she has a fit. [Agoraphobia developes when a person avoids spaces or situations associated with anxiety, the anxiety of course being the situation that happened in the bathroom. So any place outside her house became unsafe to her, reguardless of its size.]
