Deliberate mistake: The legion of hellspawns during the film's climax are merely copied and pasted throughout the screen, as evidenced by the fact that many of them perform the exact same distinguishable body movements, such as pacing right and left from a crouched position.
Spawn (1997)
1 deliberate mistake
Directed by: Mark A.Z. Dippe
Starring: John Leguizamo, Martin Sheen, Michael Jai White, Theresa Randle
Continuity mistake: When Spawn is fighting with the clown, who is in his big reptilian monster form, Spawn is thrown against a fence with pointed tops. He is impaled against them, but the ones right next to him are shaking as if they were made of rubber, not of metal. In the next shot, the spikes are stiff and solid and made of metal.
Trivia: At the dinner ceremony where Spawn attacks Wynn and kills Church, you can see a red-headed woman in a blue gown walking among the patrons in the beginning of the scene. The camera focuses on her briefly, but for a reason - look at her earrings. They are Spawn insignia. This is a reference to the angel Hellspawn hunter Angela, who wears those same insignia in the comics as trophies of her victories over previous Hellspawn. Very clever reference.
Question: How exactly did they make John Leguizamo look so short? Was he just sitting on some seat concealed inside the fat suit?

Chosen answer: He is squatting the entire time in every scene. The suit probably helped in ways to balance himself whilst squatting, so he could hold on much longer than normally.
