Revealing mistake: When Nick returns to his apartment (after being made invisible) he immediately closes the curtains. Although he is invisible, we should see the curtains pulled closed at the point that he grabs them with his hands. Instead we see them close from the top, revealing they were closed either by a crewman or an automated process. Note: The curtains are NOT meant to be automatic in the film as we see and hear him physically close them.
Memoirs of an Invisible Man (1992)
Directed by: John Carpenter
Starring: Sam Neill, Chevy Chase, Daryl Hannah, Michael McKean
Revealing mistake: When Nick is running from the men in the park and has his hood off, he is running away and appears to have no head. His torso is visibly longer than a normal person's. The special effect used to make this scene involved a man with an elongated torso to hide his head.
Revealing mistake: We often see Chevy Chase's shadow while invisible.
Nick Halloway: Now you listen to me, you son of a bitch. I've lost everything but my soul, and you're not going to take that away from me.
Nick Halloway: I want my molecules back.
