Continuity: In the car crash, the man is wearing a black shirt in the wide shot, but a white shirt in the close-up.
Visible crew/equipment: After the car crash in the forest, as the
camera pans past the car of the teen
who is knocked out you can see the
cameraman reflected in the window.
Continuity: After the car crash, Barry kneels down to check the man’s pulse. In the next shot Barry is nowhere near the man, but in the next shot he is still checking his pulse.
Continuity: When Darla is telling her blonde joke to
Jenny and Heather in her trailer, in the
wideshot her hands are on her desk but
in the closeup her arms are up by her
face.
Continuity: Darla's window gets smashed by some local boys, and when she flashes them you can see there is some kind of netting in the window which is ripped. In the next shot the netting has vanished from the window.
Continuity: When the motorbike rides by, Jenny runs after it yelling "No, wait." In this shot Jenny has the flashlight in her right hand and the big red rose as part of her prom outfit is on her left breast. But the next shot is obviously flipped, as the torch is now in her left hand and the rose is on her right breast.
Continuity: When Barry and Heather are walking along in the woods, as Barry says "that bitch, she started this whole thing," his collar changes from tucked under his black suit to suddenly being out, between shots.
Continuity: When Leatherface grabs Heather on the porch, he pulls her towards the door and then rams into the door with Heather in his arms going into the door first. However when it changes to an interior shot of the house, and they come bursting through the door, Leatherface comes in first with his back to the door.
Continuity: When Leatherface is chasing Heather, he breaks through the door, and a large portion of the door breaks out and falls to the floor. But in the next shot, the same part of the door that fell out is still broke off, but is now half hanging from the door and then falls off again.
Continuity: When Leatherface gets Heather in the house, he grabs her and drags her down the hallway, as he enters a room, Heather grabs the sides of the doorway, to pull herself away from him. In the shot, you can see the wall to the right of the doorway has a mirror on the wall, nothing else, and on the counter below is a few lone lightbulbs and a coke can. However in the next shot, so many objects appear. There's now meathooks, chains and belts hanging on the wall either side of the mirror, and the counter is now covered in canisters, metal barrels and boxes.
Continuity: When Leatherface is putting Heather in the freezer and then when he runs out of the room, the rate at which the lightbulb on the cord swings differs between shots through the scene. In one shot it's totally still, but it is swaying violently in the next shot.
Continuity: As Leatherface puts Heather in the freezer, Heather's silk gloves are rolled right down her arms in one shot, but are half-folded up in the next.
Continuity: When Jenny is standing at the open door of Vilmer's truck, asking him where Sean is, she has her left hand resting on the truck door. In the next shot it's her right hand resting on the door, and then her left again in the next shot.
Visible crew/equipment: As Vilmer and Jenny are driving along in his truck, in some shots of Vilmer, through the glass of the truck behind him, you can see a crewmember in white, wearing a watch.
Continuity: When Jenny is in Vilmer's truck and he is
talking to her and scaring her, during the
whole scene in the truck, Jenny's hair is
inconsistent throughtout. Sometimes it is
messy, then neater and her fringe
constantly changes position.
Continuity: When Jenny is in the car with Vilmer, there is a radio speaker hanging on a wire next to her. When she says “What’s gonna happen to me,” between shots the radio speaker disappears from the end of the wire.
Revealing: When Vilmer is chasing after Jenny
across the field in his truck, in the frontal
shots of Jenny running you can see that
she is wearing some kind of
(protective?) white leggins that are not
present in any other scene.
Continuity: When Jenny is hiding in the trees all out of breath, after Vilmer drives off in his truck, the left shoulder strap of Jenny's prom dress is up on her shoulder but then in the next shot it has fallen down her arm. In the following shot it is back on her shoulder! Also there is a flowery corsage on her dress which is on top of a bow which is part of the dress; but in the next shot the corsage is under the bow, then back to being on the bow in the final shot.
Continuity: Jenny wears a white silk scarf loosely around her neck, as part of her prom outfit. As Leatherface chases her through the muddy river, the scarf falls down her body to her waist. In the next shot though, it's back round her neck. But oh no, the fun doesn't stop there. After this, she removes the scarf from her neck and throws it in the river, not one, not two, but THREE times between shots.
