Revealing mistake: Charlie is hanging off the ledge of the hotel when Rose chops the axe in between his fingers - if you look closely at his hand it clearly looks like rubber.
So I Married an Axe Murderer (1993)
1 revealing mistake
Directed by: Thomas Schlamme
Starring: Amanda Plummer, Anthony LaPaglia, Mike Myers, Nancy Travis
Visible crew/equipment: You can see a rope visible when Charlie is hanging from the hotel roof.
Charlie Mackenzie: Harriet. Harry-ette. Hard-hearted harbinger of haggis. Beautiful, bemuse-ed, bellicose butcher. Un-trust... ing. Un-know... ing. Un-love... ed?"He wants you back," he screamed into the night air like a fireman going to a window that has no fire... except the passion of his heart. I am lonely. It's really hard. This poem... sucks.
Question: I read somewhere that Mike Myers and Neil Mullarkey contributed a lot of stuff to the script for this movie (which ended up in the final movie), but were denied onscreen writing credit. Why?

Answer: The Writers Guild of America (WGA) determines who is credited and how, so they would have arbitrated this. In 1992, the LA Times reported that several writers had been involved in the script including Myers and Mullarkey, but also Howard Zieff, Barbara Benedek, Sally Robinson, Conan O'Brien and Carrie Fisher. In 1993, the LA Times reported that the WGA had awarded Robbie Fox sole story and screenwriting credit on the film.
