Visible crew/equipment: When Sarah drives away from the clinic in tears after seeing Johnny, the side of her car shows us two banks of studio lights, a reflector panel and part of the camera crew. (00:24:00)
The Dead Zone (1983)
1 visible crew/equipment mistake
Directed by: David Cronenberg
Starring: Christopher Walken, Martin Sheen, Herbert Lom, Tom Skerritt, Brooke Adams
Revealing mistake: The stunt dummy that falls from the balcony in John's stead is pretty obvious. Its blank face is even visible briefly as it falls, and again when it lands. (01:37:40)
Sarah Bracknell: You're looking good.
Johnny Smith: Yeah, it's called the coma diet - lose weight while ya sleep.
Trivia: During Johnny's visions, his involuntary jerks were achieved by David Cronenberg firing a .357 Magnum revolver loaded with blanks from behind the camera.
