Dawn of the Dead

Revealing mistake: As Ana is driving away from her home, when we see her car driving from a shot high above, we see a car crashing in to a gas station making a huge explosion. However the trees a few feet away from the explosion don't move. The shockwave would have made them react at least a bit. (00:09:20)

Revealing mistake: When they use a gas cylinder and shoot it with a shotgun to wipe out a load of zombies, the resulting explosion as seen from above the trucks is way too big to have come from that small cylinder.

Revealing mistake: When Ana and Luis shower together at the beginning of the movie, Ana's hair is very long, almost down to her waist. This is obviously a body double as the real Ana's hair is much shorter.

Factual error: When the survivors are first in the mall, you can see a store called Roots with a Canadian beaver logo. While the movie was filmed in Canada, it is supposed to take place in the USA where Roots has a different logo. (00:17:05)

Question: I noticed on Andy's final moments video on the DVD, the month on the camera goes from May(When he explains the Hollywood Squares game.) To June when he finally turns to a zombie. Was the movie supposed to take place in a month or is that just a simple mistake?

Answer: Yes, part of the point of Andy's video is to give the viewer the timespan of the film.
