Saw III

Continuity mistake: When Kerry is sneaking up to the door, you can see on the TV that she raises her gun up to her chest, but then the shot cuts away (instant cut) and she's still aiming the gun at the closet. (00:13:00)

Nick Bylsma

Continuity mistake: A little bit after you first see Jeff there is a shot of Amanda looking into Jigsaw's room. Lynn is telling Jigsaw to look at her. The pillow is about three-quarters of the way down Jigsaw's head, almost down to his neck. The shot cuts to a closer view of him and now the pillow in a good 8-10 inches higher on his head, up past his ears. (00:36:20)

Nick Bylsma

Continuity mistake: After examining Jigsaw, Lynn tells Amanda that he needs to go to a hospital. Amanda grabs Lynn's hair and pulls Lynn towards her to yell at her. In the shots of Amanda's face you can see that their foreheads are touching, but in the shots of Lynn's face their temples are the only thing that is touching. (00:37:25)

Nick Bylsma

Continuity mistake: When Lynn first gets rolled into Jigsaw's room she has a few strands of her hair in the corner of her mouth. The strands appear and disappear during the next few shots.

Nick Bylsma

Continuity mistake: Kerry wipes off the steamed up mirror and sees Eric in the reflection, she gasps and turns around. She looks back at the mirror and you can see that the hand wipe marks where she wiped the steam off are completely different. (00:11:45)

Nick Bylsma

Continuity mistake: In the "Twisting Crucifix" device scene the tear on the man's face jumps from his right eye, to his left, then disappears, then reappears again throughout the shots.

Nick Bylsma

Continuity mistake: The blood mark on Kerry's cheek changes several times. It's most easily noticeable when you first see her in the 'Angel' trap, and then a close up on her face at the 14:17 mark in the movie. (00:14:10)

Nick Bylsma

Continuity mistake: Amanda freaks out and pins Lynn to the wall after Lynn says "He doesn't even know you're there". Amanda's hand is around Lynn's neck, choking her. The screen cuts to Jigsaw very briefly (all he says is, "AMANDA!"), then back to Amanda, now Amanda's hand has moved up to being on Lynn's chin. Not only would moving her hand from Lynn's neck to her chin not serve any purpose, but the screen cuts happened too fast to allow for the hand movement. (01:14:25)

Nick Bylsma

Continuity mistake: The amount of blood on Jigsaw's skull changes drastically from thick dark red to thin almost translucent red. This is before Lyn clamps off the blood vessels and uses the alcohol to clear the area. (01:03:20)

Ssiscool

Continuity mistake: In the 'Pig Vat' scene, the slide that the pigs slide on into the blades is clear with no pigs stuck on it. The pigs fall in one after the other with none getting stuck on the slide. However when the fourth pig drops onto the slide, you can see the a pig stuck on the slide and hanging over the edge of the slide. The next couple of pigs that fall don't knock another pig in and you cannot see the pig overhanging on the slide. (00:59:25)

Continuity mistake: When Kerry walks into the room at the start of the film, her ID is twisted. Camera switches to a long shot and it's not twisted. (00:05:45)

Ssiscool

Saw III mistake picture

Continuity mistake: When we first see Kerry in the Angel trap her arms are down by her side. The camera zooms out and now her arms are raised. (00:13:15)

Ssiscool

Continuity mistake: When Rigg is telling Kerry that "That somebody is still out there", Hoffman can be seen in the background putting something in his jacket. Camera changes and his hand is nowhere near his jacket. (00:10:00)

Ssiscool

Continuity mistake: When Kerry is in the Anglet trap, there is one point where her hand has almost grabbed the key out of the acid. The camera changes and her hand is nowhere near the key. (00:15:40)

Ssiscool

Continuity mistake: The drill that Lynn uses on Jigsaw's skull has a white piece of tape on the end of the drill bit a short distance from the end, presumably to mark the thickness of his skull so she knows where to stop. In one shot (during the drilling scene) the piece of tape moves a good two inches farther up on the drill bit, but it's back down in the very next shot. (01:04:05)

Trivia: In the first scene of the film, Detective Matthews is trying to get the gun. When he looks around the room, seeing Adam and Zepp's bodies and Dr. Gordon's foot, we also see Xavier's body, which is not a dummy, but a cameo made by Franky G.
