Revealing: During the song "21st Century Cure" (the graveyard scene), when The Graverobber takes out his tools and it cuts to Shilo, you can see her push up against the tombstone and it slightly bends.

Trivia
The only celebrity to make a cameo in the film is rock legend Joan Jett. The filmmakers didn't want the film to have any cameos and only decided to let Jett appear because her role is in a "fantasy musical sequence" had by the main character, so it makes sense that a celebrity she looks up to would appear.

Repo! The Genetic Opera (2008) - 17 mistakes
These mistakes are currently being ordered by time. Entries without times will appear at the end.
Continuity: During the song "Mark It Up", when the Gentern splatters the brain on Luigi, at the next cut the blood moves lower down to the middle of his shirt, then at the next cut it disappears completely, only to reappear in the next cut.
Continuity: During the song "Night Surgeon", after the man in the chair has his throat slit, between cuts Pavi's mirror will disappear in his hand, and Luigi also moves a few feet in front and behind Nathan in between shots.
Other: At the beginning of the song "Bloodbath", the newspaper that The Graverobber is holding is headlined, "GENECO IN OPERA FUED".
Continuity: At the beginning of the song "Let the Monster Rise", when Nathan gets on his feet and it cuts to Shilo, the shovel she dropped is facing upward. When she goes to grab the Repo mask, the shovel is facing downward.
Continuity: When Mag rips her own eyes out at the end of the movie, for the first few shots, the eyes are skewered on her "finger armors", but then they suddenly disappear between cuts and are never seen again. The cut is instant, so there is no time for her to have dropped them.
Revealing: During the song "Mark it Up", when Pavi supposedly snatches the panties/thongs off of the two girls, you can see they are already in his hands before he does so.
Audio problem: Right before the end credits, as Grave Robber says "But Genco may survive if it undergoes surgery", right as Grave Robber says the word "may", his lips briefly don't match what is being said. (Confirmed in DVD commentary.).
Continuity: In "Chase the Morning", Shilo's cameo necklace alternates between being face up and face down in different shots.
Continuity: During the song "Let the Monster Rise", Nathan's hair constantly changes in position, then when he goes outside to the stage, his hair is nice and neat.
Audio problem: In the song "At the Opera Tonight", when Luigi is pulling out his knife, the unsheathing of his blade is the sound of a full sized sword and continues a little after it is all the way pulled out.
Continuity: In the song "Chase the Morning," when Mag lifts off her hood, she takes it down completely, and then in the next angle she is taking it down again.
Deliberate "mistake": If you look closely, you can tell the shot of Shilo riding the elevator to the top of GeneCo tower is the same shot from the beginning of the movie (when Rotti rides the elevator down to the ground), only reversed. The distinct camera angle and movement gives it away.
Continuity: During the song "Night Surgeon", when Pavvi says: "He'll paint your ass like a Rembrandt", Luigi's face changes from looking at Pavvi to looking at Nathan between cuts.
Deliberate "mistake": Several times, you see an exterior shot of Nathan's house, and it is very clear that it is the same shot being used over and over, sometimes reversed.
Deliberate "mistake": When Rotti is dying, when Luigi and Pavvi try to run towards him (before he points the gun at them), you can briefly see Pavvi's mirror sticking out from behind the corner for a second right before they run into frame, revealing that the actors were waiting for their cue to go.
Audio problem: During the song "Mark it Up", when Luigi stabs the Gen-tern, his lips briefly don't match the words he is singing.
