Halloween: Resurrection

Continuity mistake: After Willie sees his partner's head in the washing machine, he panics and walks backwards. He trips over the dead body of his partner, he falls over his body and his arms are straightened out, but when you see him next his arms are straight against his waist and hips. (00:09:25)

Continuity mistake: After Willie trips over his beheaded partner his torch is in his left hand but after Michael Myers slices his throat and falls down his torch is in his right hand. (00:09:35)

Continuity mistake: At the start just after Willy sees his partner's head in the washing machine, he gets his throat cut and there is blood all over the knife. Later on when Michael is approaching Laurie's room, his knife just has blood on the tip, only halfway up the blade. (00:09:35 - 00:10:20)

Continuity mistake: When Sara is riding up the school pathway on her moped,beside her you see a boy pulling his bike along approaching his friends and he is about half a meter away but in the next shot the boy with the bike is about two meters away from his friends. (00:17:05)

Continuity mistake: At the start of the film after the crazy guy is pushed out of the room Sara says, 'I just need to send a quick e-mail.', and when you see her type it in there is a really long word or sentence on the screen but in the next shot close up there is just the word 'Deckard'. (00:19:40)

Continuity mistake: After Deckard receives the e-mail on his computer he writes about three lines below but about five seconds later when you see the computer screen he is just beginning the sentence on the first line. (00:19:55)

Continuity mistake: In wide shots of Deckard at his computer, the image on the monitor shows a basic white page with black and blue lettering. In close-up shots of the monitor, the image is much more detailed, showing a colorful college chat page. (00:20:35)

Continuity mistake: When you see Sara riding her moped up on the road on the way to the meeting with Freddy the sky is blue and dark but when you see her enter the door to the room you can see in the background sunlight coming in from the windows onto the walls. (00:20:50)

Continuity mistake: When Freddy rendezvous with the gang, Jen's hair when she is applauding at the back is tied in two scruffy bunches sticking out. A couple of seconds later, she has only one bunch tied. From then on, it is tied in two bunches. (00:21:30)

Continuity mistake: After Sara sees the reflection of Michael Myers in the mirror, Jen is beside her. Jen turns her head to Donna when Donna says, 'The bogeyman?' In the next shot, Jen turns her head again. (00:25:10)

Continuity mistake: When you see Deckard is in his room with his friend the second time Deckard is relaxed,leant back on his chair with his cheek resting on his fist but in the very next shot he is typing on his computer. (00:25:25)

Continuity mistake: When Nora is making her coffee from the machine you can see most of the computer screens. If you look at the one with Charlie on it you can see him walk backwards with the tripod leg pointing at him, but in the next shot,when you see the screen close up, he is kneeling down, Michael Myers catches his attention and then he stands up. (00:28:30)

Continuity mistake: After Charlie gets his neck impaled by the tripod leg he is dragged along the floor with his hands up to his neck and then they go above his head but next when you see Nora on the phone to Freddy the screen behind her has Charlie with his hands on his neck again. (00:29:15)

Continuity mistake: When Freddy arrives at the Myers' house the sliding door at the side of the car is left open but after Sara sees Michael Myers at the window the door is shut. (00:30:15)

Continuity mistake: When you see Freddy being interviewed you see Nora watching him on the TV, the camera is at a reverse angle and you see that her hand is somewhere round her face and her head tilts but in the very next shot,she doesn't have her hand near her face and also her head is completely still. (00:30:30)

Continuity mistake: When you see Donna, Jim and Rudy approaching the house to get ready you see that they are the only ones on that side of the house. You can tell because the wall is on their left side, but in the next shot you also see Bill on the same side. Where did he come from? (00:30:35)

Continuity mistake: When the six enter the Myers' house outside you see Sara walk through the doorway and nearly reaching the stairs but about five seconds later she is just entering the doorway. (00:31:25)

Continuity mistake: When there is a four-way split-screen while they enter the house, the top-left, the bottom-left, and the top-right don't match properly. (00:31:55)

Continuity mistake: Within a few minutes after entering Michael Myers' house Sara and Rudy go into the kitchen. Sara opens the door and a baby-chair fold out quickly, afterwards when they all take a look at it, there are no hinges or screws, etc. to make it flip open. (00:34:05)

Continuity mistake: When Deckard is at the party he goes up to the opening doors and tries to sneak in. Inside you can just see a lamp and a few bronze pots on the floor but when he enters the room you can see lots and lots of furniture and objects in the room. (00:36:15)

Plot hole: When the first security guard, who stayed back to get something to eat, hears something in the laundry room, he walks over to the washing machine where he finds the head of the other security guard inside. He turns around screaming and trips over the security guard's body on the ground with no head. Wouldn't he notice the dead body on the ground when he first entered the room?

More trivia for Halloween: Resurrection

Question: It was revealed that the person who Laurie thought she killed wasn't Michael but somebody who Michael had subdued and placed his clothes and mask on. Why would Laurie be sent to an institution for this? She wasn't aware of the fact that she killed the wrong person until the mask was removed, and since the staff seem to know about her connection to Michael, wouldn't they consider letting her go since she was only trying to stop Michael's rampage?

Answer: At first impression, Laurie was catatonic not only from the shock of killing an innocent man, but also from a lifetime of being chased down by her murderous brother. She obviously knows from past experiences that nothing she does (including faking her own death) will stop Michael from finding her. It is later revealed she has been faking her mental issues (think when she has been hiding her regular meds in the raggedy Ann doll) and is committed only to stopping Michael, no matter what the cost. She may have also been trying to protect her son and the only way to do that is to allow herself to be institutionalized in order to lure Michael there.

Answer: It's not properly explained (nothing in this stupid movie is), but the implication is that she went a little crazy due to the guilt of killing an innocent man and was institutionalized.
