Continuity mistake: Walter tore out the newspaper article ("Body of Woman Found at Greenland Rest Stop") fairly neatly/evenly; it was relatively straight across the top, though a little jagged as could be expected. When Walter looked at the article some time later, the jagged top was worse and there was MORE space between it and the title. The right side also appeared to be more jagged than it was and include a little more of the article that was to its right before being torn off. (00:07:03 - 00:13:37)
Continuity mistake: The chef at the airport stabs someone, but the knife blade is clean afterwards; moments later he stabs it through the valise, and it is covered in blood.
Continuity mistake: At the toll booth, Afonso does a thumb up sign to the operator, not knowing what he really said to his son about their ride. He is doing the gesture with his right hand, left hand, right hand again depending on the shot. (00:07:00)
Factual error: Viggo is "playing" the bagpipes on the wrong side. They should be under his left arm, not his right. He is also not blowing hard enough to make the required sound. They sound good, though.
Factual error: When Chiron is speaking with the social worker after being assaulted by Kevin, the social worker urges Chiron to press charges. It is the government who decides to press charges, based on evidence gathered by the police, including witness and victim statements. Crime victims do not decide whether or not to press charges. (01:02:20)
Suggested correction: It should be noted the term "press charges" in this case is meant to denote that a victim of a crime reports the crime to the police (as in file a charge against a person to the police), not the legal sense of pressing charges in court. Plus, victims of crimes can pursue a civil case against a criminal.
Factual error: A bullhorn can be heard in the background off-screen during a battle with the zombies, even though the movie takes place during Victorian times. (01:19:30)
Factual error: When Joe and his girlfriend, who is also Albert White's mistress, walk through the hotel room kitchen, that whole kitchen, is not a 30's era kitchen. It even has a convection oven and a blast chiller, pan racks, etc. that are more from this time.
Continuity mistake: The protagonist (Andrea Bowen) is in the car with the captain, who is debriefing her about the subjects involved in the case. Throughout the conversation, multiple times her hair covers her ears or is combed behind them, with no consistency. (00:11:20)
Continuity mistake: The level of snake wine changes in the glass as the camera cuts back and forth during the conversation in the Chinese restaurant between Jeff and Tim.
Continuity mistake: When Chaz leaves the house telling Jesse that she has just 2 weeks to pack, in the close-up when she says "Bye..." her hair is all in front of her shoulders as opposed to the rest of the scene. (00:08:40)
Continuity mistake: The sun angle changes several times during the chase sequence when the dragon is on the flatbed truck.
Revealing mistake: When the Creature is telling Louis the "Bat Story," the Creature is holding a burning torch in its right hand against a wholly-dark background. It becomes apparent that the shots of the creature are actually Dutch Angle shots (the angle of the camera is rotated about 45°), because the smoke from the torch is not rising straight upwards; rather, the smoke is rising at a 45° angle toward the upper left corner of the screen.
Continuity mistake: The blood that drips on the girls disappears between shots. (01:06:00 - 01:07:00)
Continuity mistake: Maureen spent the first night in the spooky house, without conclusive results. They are meeting the prospect buyers in a bar. When Lara walks up to them and begins the conversation, the arm position of the man changes wildly between shots several times at every cut. (00:08:40)
Continuity mistake: When Kurt and Kavi are washing clothes, the clothes change position on the line, specifically the red shirt at the end and the shorts Kavi hangs up. The red shirt is twisted around the line, but in the shot of Kavi hanging the shorts, the shirt is hanging perfectly straight down.
Factual error: When Anita Hill is in her hotel room waiting to testify she is watching the Texas v. OU football game. In the movie the date for that scene is Friday, October 11, 1991. The Texas v. OU football game was played on Saturday, October 12, 1991.
Continuity mistake: Carolyn puts on her pink dress and asks Tallulah to zip her up. Tammy Blanchard puts her hair up in a bunch, but there's a large bang to the left side of her face that stays down. In the reverse shot though, she got all her hair up. (00:18:20)
Continuity mistake: Maudie lights herself a cigarette. There are 2 matchboxes on the railing of the porch. They disappear for the rest of the scene and Maudie's cardigan and dress do not have pockets. (00:02:35)
Revealing mistake: Set in Pittsburgh, PA, scenes were obviously filmed out of sequence. Many scenes were "out of sync" with the snowfall, whether in progress or amount (if any) already accumulated. For example, there was no snow downtown, but views from the helicopter showed snow-cover around the nearby parkway (Route 376). In another scene, it was snowing when Ryan turned his Jeep into a downtown road that was covered with at least one inch of snow; switching to a "live" newscast, the sun was shining outside.
Other mistake: Augustina approaches "Bill at the bar. The bar's clock shows it's 9:12. The two go on to talk for over 2 minutes of real time, and she says "it was so 10 minutes ago" when he quotes an earlier bit of the conversation; no matter how much time it passed, the clock did not advance. (00:02:10 - 00:04:10)
