Sleepwalkers (1992)

Video

Revealing mistake: Charles is cutting a letter into his arm with a knife towards the beginning. However it's obvious the knife is fake and the blood is coming out of the top of the knife onto his skin like an ink pen on paper.

Revealing mistake: Baca is using a pistol to shoot the zombies towards the end and still has this same pistol at the end. When he's on the ground about to shoot himself to stop from turning, it shows a close up of his pistol which reveals it's a 6mm BB gun. (01:20:15)

Revealing mistake: After the zombies get loose inside the compound and attack the civilian sector, a woman in a blue bandanna gets jumped and pulled down behind a counter and killed. A blood spurt flies up to signify she's been bitten, however the splash of blood comes from in front of the counter. (01:16:00)

Revealing mistake: When Wendy is going to look for her boyfriend Steve and sees the blood dripping from the air duct, she reaches up towards it and you can see there is a spot of dried prop blood on her arm that's been partly wiped off before her hand ever comes in contact with the blood.

Gringo (2018)

Revealing mistake: When the bartender recognizes Harold and calls the cartel leader, his phone screen stays on instead of turning black and shows that he's still on the lock screen displaying the time, not actually calling anybody. (00:49:30)

Freedom Fighters: The Ray mistake picture

Revealing mistake: When The Ray lands on the ground regrouping with the other Freedom Fighters, there is a bridge behind him with many civilians walking in the background. The animators took an obvious shortcut here as the civilians in the background just consist of the sprites of about 5-7 different people just repeated over and over again all in their same poses on each copy as they move. One especially noticeable one is a kid walking in an olive gray shirt with his arms up right next to himself over and over again. (00:01:45)

Lexx (1997)

I Worship His Shadow - S1-E1

Revealing mistake: After the Cluster Lizard inside The Lexx eats Thodin's last man and The Key is transferred to Stanley, there is a shot from behind Xev and Stanley showing the lizard. The green screening is reflecting shades of green onto Xev's black restraining vest and part of Stanley's hat. (00:59:35)

Lexx (1997)

I Worship His Shadow - S1-E1

Revealing mistake: When the Cluster Lizards invade the awards ceremony, one of them grabs a boy and drags him across the floor for a moment before it cuts to the lizard slinging him around devouring him. In that shot, it is painfully obvious that the cluster lizard is slinging around a dummy, and the dummy doesn't even have a head. (00:39:25)

Lexx (1997)

I Worship His Shadow - S1-E1

Revealing mistake: When Stanley doesn't make it back to the correctional facility in time and is locked out, it triggers his fugitive status for failing to turn himself in. Behind him and all through out the base, his image appears on screens along the walls like wanted posters. Only a little bit before as he is running down the hall trying to get back to the correctional facility in time, he passes by one of these screens and you can see this same image of him already on the screen but dim. Revealing that the production team already had the image set and ready to turn a back lighting on to reveal the image at the appropriate time. (00:34:00)

Nostalgia Critic (2007)

Nostalgia Critic mistake picture

Fantastic 4 Rise of Silver Surfer - S11-E37

Revealing mistake: When Rob grabs Critic and Malcolm and shoves their heads out the door to see that the world is on fire, both before and after it shows the clip of a city burning you can see in Malcolm's sunglasses the reflection of the perfectly fine and normal suburban street. But they should be looking at a burning city. (00:01:30)

Lexx (1997)

I Worship His Shadow - S1-E1

Revealing mistake: Stanley stops next to a window and contemplates if he should turn himself in and face a forced organ donation of 3, or face termination. In the close up shots, the green screening was poorly done as he has a red outline around his face and head. (00:33:05)

Lexx (1997)

I Worship His Shadow - S1-E1

Revealing mistake: When it's Xev's turn at the Holo Court, the memory machine plugs into her head and starts playing her memories of her arranged wedding. The machine is showing video of her memories through her eyes. However in the video when she punches her would be husband in the face, the side and part of the back of her head comes into view on screen. Which doesn't make sense unless she's able to see her own back of her head. (00:29:10)

Lexx (1997)

I Worship His Shadow - S1-E1

Revealing mistake: When the prisoner on the line recognizes Stanley and starts shouting, his frame breaks loose and he falls down. It leans forward and falls to the ground splattering the prisoner all over the floor, but as it is falling, it hits against the frame in front of him which has Xev tied to it. It pushes the bottom of Xev's frame up making it swing and hit the frame in front of her, and enough that it would have crushed where her feet were. But there is nothing to stop the metal from touching the metal frame in front of it revealing that for that shot there was nobody on that frame. (00:22:55)

Lexx (1997)

I Worship His Shadow - S1-E1

Revealing mistake: In the hanger dock where Stanley is working, there are some purple lasers in the background going up and down like a security gate. But during their animation for a moment, they suddenly jump back to previous positions as the loop in the animation is not lined up correctly. (00:11:40)

Lexx (1997)

I Worship His Shadow - S1-E1

Revealing mistake: As Kai's squadron fly across camera, it cuts to Kai in his cockpit with his shadow on his right. But as the camera pans around to get a side view of him, his shadow moves in the other direction revealing them moving the light with the camera. (00:01:55)

211 (2018)

Revealing mistake: Once Steve gets out of the police car and start shooting at the first merc, the merc hides behind a payphone. Many of Steve's shots can be seen sparking off the payphone that the merc is using to take cover behind, however not one single bullet hole or dent ever appears. (00:46:00)

Darksiders

Darksiders mistake picture

Revealing mistake: The Apocalypse/Mayhem: During the cut scene before your first battle with Straga, various Angels and Demons are fighting. It shows one Minion Demon holding an Angel Soldier, and in the over head shot he's holding the Angel's torso up off the ground. When it cuts to a side angle just before the Demon rips out the Angel's throat, suddenly the Angel is not only on the ground, but almost completely inside the ground with just part of his face and torso sticking out in a bad animation moment.

Darksiders

Revealing mistake: The Apocalypse/Mayhem: During this level, meteors are constantly falling down to the earth. A lot of items in the environment are destructible, including all vehicles seen. However, if a meteor strikes a vehicle, like a bus, it does nothing to it. But rather passes right through the bus and just leaves an impact crater under it.

Video

Revealing mistake: When Claire drives the truck and gets it to jump to the boat, the front of it ramps up as it reaches the end of the dock. There was nothing there that could have caused the vehicle to ramp up like that. (00:50:05)

Ready Player One (2018)

Revealing mistake: Parzival heads back to the Halliday Journals to watch the scene of Halliday and Morrow parting ways again. There is glass between him and the scene and some camera angles show Parzival through the glass from inside with the scene reflected on the glass. However the reflection is wrong. Morrow is standing on the right with Halliday on the left, but when showing their reflection in the glass, their positions are not reversed. (00:23:45)
