Van Helsing picture

Deliberate mistake: In the first sequence, you see a man riding on the wooden battering-ram, and you can see where two different shots of the same man were spliced together, as the background suddenly shifts from being a forest, to being the exterior of the town, where the stone wall is. It was meant to be one single shot, but you can just see how the trick works. (00:00:30)

The Hollow picture

Deliberate mistake: When Brody confronts and then flees from the Headless Horseman, the horses never break into full gallop (it's little more than a stiff-legged canter), which is odd for a life-and-death chase with the bloodthirsty Headless Horseman in murderous pursuit. This was probably done on purpose, for safety reasons, since the actor playing Brody was performing his own stunt riding at night. To cinch the illusion of a real chase, audio was added of a 4-beat gallop.

Seed of Chucky picture

Deliberate mistake: When Tiffany is reading the self-help book for recovering addicts, there's a closeup of a page. While the headline for the chapter makes sense, the body text is completely unrelated and is about corporate work culture. (Likely just some generic free text the prop department copy/pasted into the book prop.)
