The Woman in Black

Continuity mistake: When Arthur and the dog are returning from the graveyard, the dog stops to sniff at something and Arthur walks ahead a couple of steps, leaving the dog behind him. The shot changes and the dog is now in front of Arthur.

Continuity mistake: Daniel Radcliffe's facial hair goes from 2 day stubble to clean shaven throughout the movie. About midway through it is very noticeable. He is by himself in the Marsh house, for the 2nd time I believe, and in every shot he has 2 day stubble. However when it cuts to a close-up he has a near-perfect shave.

Factual error: In the scene where Arthur first enters the house and starts going through paperwork, there's a shot of Nathaniel Drablow's death certificate which shows 'body was not recovered' in the box next to his cause of death. Such a thing would not be written on death certificates of the time - that box is reserved for 'Signature, description and residence of informant', a heading which can partially be seen as the camera pans across the certificate. For the death to have been registered, an informant's signature would have to have been there. (00:20:05)
