Badbird

Soylent Green (1973)

Corrected entry: When Thorn first enters Simonson's apartment to investigate the murder, Simonson's body is laying undisturbed just as it was left when he was killed. Despite having his skull hacked open twice by a metal hook, there is no pool of blood around the body - or anywhere else for that matter. There should have been blood all over the place. (00:12:30 - 00:14:05)

Badbird

Correction: The murder victim's head was never hacked open, it was simply hit twice. A person doesn't have to bleed from a blow to the head for it to be deadly.

Soylent Green (1973)

Corrected entry: There are two well known but uncredited actors in this film. Dame Judith Anderson (remember her as 'T'Pau' in the original Star Trek) plays the old woman at the Supreme Exchange, and Dick Van Patten plays the orderly at the suicide center.

Badbird

Correction: The woman who played the Exchange Leader (and vulcan leader in the Star Trek episode Amok Time) is Celia Lovsky. She died in 1979 after appearing in over 40 films and many television shows. Trivia: She was once married to Peter Lorre.

Soylent Green (1973)

Corrected entry: After the assassin drives the metal hook into Simonson's skull he draws back the hook for another blow - and we can see that there is no blood, hair or anything else soiling the end of the hook, despite the fact that it was just driven into a man's skull and yanked out.

Badbird

Correction: It was a crowbar, and he didn't drive it into his skull. He just hit him over the head with it.
