Alien 3 picture

Continuity mistake: Just after the doctor started the post mortem on that little girl, the front of his gown is covered with blood.

Candyman picture

Continuity mistake: The first time Helen is at Cabrini Green and she goes through the medicine cabinet into the other apartment she has to actually crawl through the small opening in the wall where the medicine cabinet is, but when she goes back at the end to find the baby the hole in the wall has grown considerably, she just crouches and walks right through.

Suggested correction: The hole became bigger because the Candyman is there now. Do you expect him to crawl?

I don't expect him to have to go through the opening at all since he is the Candyman. He can get into places without walking through a physical opening.

Pet Sematary II picture

Continuity mistake: Right after the bully has been killed by the motorcycle, in the wide shot, everything from his forehead to his chest is a totally mangled, disgusting mess. A little while later, though, in the close-up, his face, although bloody, is completely intact and recognisable.

Children of the Corn II: The Final Sacrifice picture

Continuity mistake: In the scene where the old lady comes out of the cafe and the children come out from behind with the remote control car, she shouts at them to get away. As she turns to cross the road the children turn to follow her. In the next shot when we see them out of the bingo hall they are walking ahead as if they had never turned to cross.
