Revealing mistake: Right at the end of the fight between Selene and the Uber-Lycan in the vampire coven, the Uber-Lycan throws Selene into some wooden panels, knocking her unconscious. As she travels through the air you can tell that she is suspended by wires; she travels far too slowly towards the wooden panels for someone who was just thrown. (00:48:35)
Underworld: Awakening (2012)
Directed by: Bjorn Stein, Mans Marlind
Starring: Kate Beckinsale, Michael Ealy, Stephen Rea, India Eisley
Continuity mistake: When Selene gets to the parking garage, she is wearing her skin tight outfit and is only armed with her guns. But from out of nowhere, she suddenly pulls out a grenade. Her outfit has no pockets and it was not attached/hanging from her outfit.
Factual error: Detective Sebastian fires a total of 7 rounds at the Antigen van in the parking garage - three at the driver, two at the front-left tire, one right before the van nearly runs him over and then one after it passes him - without reloading, yet the Taurus Judge revolver he is using is designed to only hold 5 rounds in its cylinder. Later, after Sebastian has reloaded the revolver, he fires 8 rounds at Dr. Lane, again without reloading.
Trivia: Kate Beckinsale's stunt double Alicia Vela-Bailey makes a cameo during the opening sequence as a vampire escaping the purge. (00:03:40)
Trivia: Michael's brief appearance in the beginning of the film was actually cleverly repurposed stock footage of actor Scott Speedman from the previous films digitally added into the scene, mixed with footage of a body-double in his "hybrid" makeup. His brief appearance in the end (where we see him frozen) is a mannequin that was made up to resemble Speedman.
Trivia: Kate Beckinsale's mother makes a cameo as a vampire in David's covenant. (00:33:20)
Selene: My heart is not cold. It's broken.
Selene: For 12 years, I was held captive by the humans. The world I once knew has changed. Vampires and Lycans are now the hunted.
Dr. Jacob Lane: Your kind will never be as powerful as us. No matter how hard you fight, you won't win.
Selene: You don't know me very well.
