The Amityville Horror picture

Other mistake: When George is in the basement, his son starts walking down the stairs. Suddenly a light bulb shatters right next to the boy's head, he screams, and falls violently down the stairs. But when it cuts to George coming over, he's just walking at a normal pace as though nothing happened. (This is just after they move in, before the evil spirits take hold of George, so there's no reason for him not to be alarmed.).

Other mistake: When the Behemoth swims up the river & capsizes the ferry, a static model is used that bears no resemblance to the animation model seen throughout the film.

The Eye Creatures picture

Other mistake: This film was retitled for video, but whoever was responsible made an error. It was retitled Attack Of The The Eye Creatures with 'The' written twice in the title.

The Crazies picture

Other mistake: In the scene where Judy and Becca are strapped to beds in the high school and the principal is coming with a pitch fork, at first there is a close up of the fork (when the principal is dragging it) and its dry with no blood, the principal walks over to his first victim and right before he raises the fork it is shown covered in blood so much that some has ran on to the floor.

Night of the Creeps picture

Other mistake: There is a scene at the beginning of the movie where the two main male leads are walking near a frat house having a party. The shot with the error starts on a frat banner and then pans down and across to the female lead (Jill Whitlow) and stops with her in the center of the screen. At this point, her legs are transparent.

The Others picture

Other mistake: When Ann makes fun of the mute at the dinner table, the mute wears a plum-burgundy dress. Later on when Grace runs down to the gate and hears Ann crying, she's wearing the exact same dress. Seems unlikely the woman of the house would wear the same clothes as the scullery girl.

Van Helsing picture

Other mistake: Van Helsing's ring fits his as a human, but in the climactic fight he turns to werewolf form and back and is still wearing it. He didn't have time to take it off and put it back on, so either one of his wolf fingers should be horribly, painfully cramped or the ring should have broken. No one insinuates that the ring has magical powers of any kind to prevent this.

The Hidden picture

Other mistake: During one of the early investigations of the murder in the record store, there is a scene of the FBI agent and the detective in a Porsche driving through an intersection, almost crashing into a yellow car entering the intersection and swerving away to avoid an accident. Later on in the movie, there is another scene of the Porsche going through the same intersection, at a different angle, and almost hitting, again, the same yellow car, at the same position, doing the same manuever to avoid a crash.

Evil Dead II picture

Other mistake: When Evil Ed picks up Jake and throws him headfirst into the lightbulb, watch the speed that he hits it and then falls away from it; he moves far to slowly.

The Hand that Rocks the Cradle picture

Other mistake: When Peyton and Emma are watching a scary movie in Peyton's room, Emma is eating popcorn. However, if you watch her mouth, she isn't actually eating anything (just doing an incredibly bad job of pretending to). (00:34:15)

The Lawnmower Man picture

Other mistake: In the scene in Angelo's basement after Jobe has killed the Priest and his friend's Father, Jobe transmits a message to Angelo using the VR helmet. In this message we see and hear Jobe describing how he took a boost of medicine, but how did Angelo hear this message? The earphones of the VR headset are positioned above his head and angled away from him. (01:13:40)

The Monster Squad picture

Other mistake: The werewolf gets blown to pieces by the dynamite, clothes and all. I can understand how the werewolf can reassemble his body as only silver can kill him. But how in the world do his clothes knit themselves back together?

Suggested correction: It was a nod to the comment Sean made earlier in the movie about Wolfman wearing pants in the 40's so you wouldn't see his "wolf dork"; it was meant to be a joke.

Desperation picture

Other mistake: When David finds the bodies in the station and the husband swinging from the fan, there are no bullet holes in his back, but there was blood on the wall behind him when he was shot.

The Final Sacrifice picture

Other mistake: In the scenes that take place in populated areas, there are never any people seen anywhere in the streets. Not even during the "high-speed chase" (where the thugs' car does not quite manage to catch up with Troy on his ten-speed bike) in the town do you see anybody.

Killer Klowns From Outer Space picture

Other mistake: The Giant Killer Klown at the end of the movie picks up the Ice Cream truck and hurls it into the wall resulting in an explosion that destroys the entire car. The two ice cream drivers say that the way they lived was by hiding in the ice cream truck freezer. First, ice cream truck freezers cannot fit two people and even if they could, the car was blown apart from the back first which would have killed them instantly anyway.
