Mistake Continuity: When the scientists are standing at the entrance to the Hive, one of them opens a small transmitter, reflected in his mask, with its antenna pointing over 45 degrees. When it cuts, the antenna is pointing almost horizontally.

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: A boom mic operator wearing a white shirt is seen reflected in the door that the female scientist opens, when the Umbrella personnel pick her up, as part of their extraction procedure. He is visible as the door is opening and very faintly when it is closed.

Mistake Revealing: If you slo-mo the scene where the semi collides with the SUV carrying the doctor's young daughter, you can see the the right front of the SUV is substantially off the ground even before the truck strikes it, presumably to ensure it flips.

Mistake Revealing: At the beginning, when one of the black trucks has an accident, whatever is making the dramatic sparks is still running when that part of bodywork is off the ground.

Mistake Revealing: Resident Evil Apocalypse was shot in Toronto and the filmmakers wanted to use the city surrounding the CN tower to be Raccoon City. They edited out the CN tower, however they missed a brief glimpse at it. It's shown really quickly in between when Angie's vehicle crashes and when it stops.

Mistake Continuity: When the girl is being chased by the zombies (just before we meet Carlos) the keypad for the door is right next to it. When she tries to enter the code, it is suddenly next to the small grey box.

Mistake Continuity: At the surplus store as a hand picks up a weapon, it is clear that the person is wearing jeans. The next shot is of a person wearing a lab coat and after that we see Alice getting dressed.

Mistake Continuity: In the church, Peyton asks Terri about her video camera. She has it raised to shoulder height. Cut to her face and the camera's gone. The next shot is through the camera and shows the same view of Peyton we could see before over her shoulder, so she didn't move it.

Mistake Continuity: A zombie hits its head on a tombstone, which falls over. In the next shot, it's upright again.

Mistake Factual error: The sniper on the roof who is casually picking off zombies hand loads his rifle after every shot. The rifle he is using is the AWP Magnum which has a spring loaded 10 round clip and a breach that cannot be hand-fed ammunition.

Mistake Continuity: When LJ shows his custom guns to the STARS, he opens his coat and pulls the tail behind his back. In the wide shot, his arms are out to the sides.

Mistake Continuity: When Nemesis blows up the STARS sniper on the roof of the theater, the size of his rocket launcher changes drastically.

Mistake Continuity: Just before Nemesis starts shooting at Alice after shooting at Valentine, the counter on his gun shows 0000 rounds left.

Mistake Continuity: Nemesis has an ammunition counter for his Vulcan cannon. When Nemesis is shooting at Peyton on the bridge, his counter stops at 3997 rounds. Almost immediately he begins shooting at Jill, but now the counter reads 3688.

Mistake Deliberate "mistake": When Alice first fights the Nemesis, she attempts to jump over a fence and make an escape. When she lands on the police car, Nemesis fires his RPG at her. If you look closely, the rocket passes magically right through a chain link fence without touching it at all.

Mistake Continuity: When Alice escapes from Nemesis falling into the garbage, she shows both hands with her fingers in good condition. Yet in the next shot, she has a very badly broken finger.

Mistake Plot hole: In the school cafeteria, Jill flips on six of the stove gas feeds. As she walks out, she tosses a match that fizzles, meaning that the gas hasn't reached the exit hallway. Seconds later, Alice manages to light the gas by flicking a cigarette at the doors at the far end of the hall just as the dogs break the glass. There's no way that the gas could have filled all that space in that amount of time. Matches burn hotter than cigarettes, so it's not that the gas simply didn't ignite before.

Mistake Continuity: When Jill Valentine and Angie are running from the dogs after turning on the gas, Jill kicks the left side of the double doors open. However, when she turns around to see if the match ignited the gas, she has the right door open. When Jill Valentine realizes Alice light a cigarette she starts running, again out of the right side of the door. (Looking at the doors from the kitchen to the cafeteria).

Mistake Continuity: After the gas explosion in the school, Angela reveals that Alice is infected. The woman cop asks "When were you gonna tell us that?" and the next shot shows Alice with burns/blood on her upper left arm. In the next shot as Alice goes to sit down, the severity and position of the burns/blood changes.

Mistake Continuity: As Alice is attacking the guards around the helicopter with the batons, she switches from holding them low to holding them high between shots right after she knocks down the last guard. There isn't enough time or any reason for her to do so in the second offscreen as the others arrive.
