Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead (1991)
2 other mistakes
Directed by: Stephen Herek
Starring: Christina Applegate, David Duchovny, Joanna Cassidy, John Getz, Josh Charles
Genres: Comedy
Other mistake: When Sue Ellen gets the roses from Gus, the tickets in the card have a date of April 6th 1990. This is suppose to be the summer of 1990, which means the tickets are no good. (01:03:00)
Other mistake: The movie is set in the summer of 1990 and Sue Ellen has stated she is 17 but when we see her drivers license her birthdate is stated as 12-19-73. That makes her 16 turning 17 in December. (01:24:00)
Continuity mistake: In the scene where Sue-Ellen has just come home from work, she places her pocketbook on the kitchen island. In the next scene the secretary is going through Sue-Ellen's office and finds her pocketbook and goes through it. How can that be if Sue-Ellen brought it home with her? (01:17:15 - 01:19:35)
Walter Crandell: She doesn't look dead.
Zach Crandell: That's because it just happened. So you can't really tell, like on "MacGyver."
