Continuity mistake: When Carrie breaks a mirror in her house late in the movie, you could see it was shattered. When her mother enters, the mirror only has a few cracks in it. If Carrie put the pieces back with her mind, there would be more cracks.
Factual error: In the DVD theatrical trailer for "Carrie," Stephen King's name is misspelled. It is spelled "Steven".
Continuity mistake: After Carrie wreaks havoc on the high school prom and exits the high school Gym at the end keep an eye on the streamers in the windows. They aren't even burning. You can tell the fire is super-imposed by the camera.
Audio problem: When Chris and Billy are in the car she calls him a stupid sh*t, and he lightly hits her cheek with the back of his hand, yet a huge slapping noise is made.
Continuity mistake: Near the end of the film, between the time Carrie finishes her bath after the prom and the time her mother stabs her, the wetness of Carrie's hair changes from shot to shot. When she first puts on her nightgown, her hair is almost dry; later on, about when her mother says, "We'll pray," her hair is very damp; when her mother stabs her, her hair is almost dry again.
Revealing mistake: As the car somersaults past Carrie, a roll cannon is visible.
Continuity mistake: When Billy is driving and drinking the beer while the cops are beside him, he has beer around his mouth, but in the next shot the beer is gone, then back again.
Continuity mistake: In the scene when Billy and Chris are driving for the first time in his car just before Freddy pulls up, you can see him drive past 3 times (it is easier to see him by the red cap).
Continuity mistake: The red car Chris was driving became a white, two-tone car, and the type changes as well.
Continuity mistake: When the blood is poured over Carrie at the prom, it only covers her left side - hair, shoulder, arm, body. But in the next shot the blood is all over her, especially her hair. The blood on her face is strategically placed, so it isn't in her eyes or cover her too much.
Continuity mistake: When Carrie and Tommy have just been named queen and king, during their walk though the crowd they pass P.J. Soles character, wearing her red hat. In the immediate next shot, you don't see her character or anyone with a red hat.
Continuity mistake: When Margaret has a knife thrown in her hand, in the first shot, there's no blood, but in the very next shot, there is.
Other mistake: Rita is only hit in the thighs with the basketball rafter. That couldn't kill her, and it couldn't make blood come out of her mouth.
Continuity mistake: When Margaret is first stabbed in the chest with a kitchen utensil, in one shot there's no blood in the wound, but in the very next shot there is.
Continuity mistake: In the scene in the beginning of the movie when Carrie's mother puts her in her "praying room" the room is pitch black. When it cuts to an overhead shot of Carrie in the room, the room is lit either by a window or something else. This is before she lights a candle.
Continuity mistake: Before Carrie goes to the prom while her mom is lying on the bed, her head changes position between shots.
