Parasite picture

Continuity mistake: Throughout the movie in several scenes the living room has 2 couches even up until the Parks are getting ready to leave for their camping trip, 1 big one and one small. The very next scene when the Kims are getting drunk, the small couch has disappeared. This must be to make room for the Kims to slide and crawl out from under the table. The strange thing is when the Parks come back home, they don't notice that one of their couches is missing. It remains missing until the end.

Happy Death Day 2U picture

Continuity mistake: When Tree wakes up from committing suicide with the drain cleaner, she starts pouring a water bottle into her mouth. In the wide shot, her mouth is wide open, her tongue is all the way in her mouth, and there's a steady stream of water pouring off her chin. But then it punches into a closeup, and her mouth is instantly halfway closed, her tongue is pushed forward, and the stream of water has suddenly slowed to a drip. Obviously a few seconds was cut for pacing, but still a mistake.

The Fanatic picture

Continuity mistake: Moose is sitting at a desk writing a letter to Mr. Dunbar in a spiral bound notebook. There is a magazine to the right of the notebook with about the same width. After a couple quick camera shifts, the notebook is suddenly stacked on top of a few magazines and whatever Moose is writing on is obstructed by the stack. After a couple more quick camera shifts, the notebook is back in front of Moose, and he tears out the page he was writing on. (00:25:55)

Escape Plan: The Extractors picture

We Die Young picture

Continuity mistake: The amount of blood on 10-year-old Miguel's face and neck after his "jump in" is not consistent. Sometimes there is more (or less) blood on his cheeks and neck and sometimes it appears splattered compared to large areas diluted with blood. The intensity/color of the blood also changes - sometimes it is very red but other times it is paler. The cut on his left eyebrow apparently was not on the far left corner yet sometimes the blood started there; other times, the blood started almost to the middle of his eyebrow. Sometimes he has blood below his eyebrow. Despite all the blood on his face and neck (down to the sagging T-shirt), there is no blood on his white or light grey T-shirt. He also does not get any blood on his jacket. Miguel was repeatedly punched then kicked by several large, muscular adult gang members for 13 seconds (to become a member of the MS-13 gang) but is unrealistically able to get right up then go and pick up and carry his dog - with no limping or signs of pain. (00:29:15)

When the neighbour asks him "Late again?", the guitar strap is on opposite sides of the instrument as the editing switches to a reverse shot. (00:06:40)

The Intruder picture

Continuity mistake: When Charlie throws Scott over the balcony, he crashes into the chandelier and it partially tears away from the ceiling. Sparks ensue, but the light remains fully functional. The camera switches to Scott on the floor then back to Charlie where the chandelier can be seen worth all but one light out. There is no visible difference in the room lighting. Later, when Charlie is chasing Scott and Annie with the shotgun, Charlie screams "Lights out!" and shoots a fully functional chandelier.

Synchronic picture

Continuity mistake: Packets of Synchronic were placed on top of the garbage already in the can and were inconsistent from one shot to another. Also, the amount of crumbled papers under the Synchronic decreased. (It is also interesting that no new garbage was placed in the can on top of the Synchronic packets even though over one day had passed).
