Continuity mistake: Julie and her mom are eating together towards the beginning after the opening montage, and her mom says that she will miss these days. Julie's hand is up holding her fork in the shut, but when it cuts to the next angle her arm is down and she's digging at her plate. (00:03:20)

Hereditary (2018)
Continuity mistake: At the dinner scene, just before Peter asks his mother if she's okay, the meat on his plate, (apparently chicken) is sitting with the mounted end up. It cuts to his mother then back to him without him moving, and suddenly the meat has flipped upside down the other way. And it flips around several times through this scene. (00:56:55 - 00:58:00)

Hereditary (2018)
Audio problem: As Annie is trying to leave Joan's house and she starts to give Annie instructions on how to do the ritual, it's obvious the audio for Joan's lines was dubbed in in post as a lot of her speech doesn't quite match up with her lips. Especially when she's saying "Your whole family needs to be in the house". (01:08:00)

Hereditary (2018)
Question: After Peter is possessed by Charlie and he clicks his tongue for the first time after standing up, he starts to walk towards the tree house and heads off screen. The camera lingers though, and focuses in on something lying on the ground in the background. What is that on the ground? It almost looks like a dead dog or possibly the dead dear from earlier, but the shape isn't quite right. It does appear to be some sort of animal but I can't make it out. What is that the camera lingered on right then? And why? It's not shown again. (01:57:45)

Hereditary (2018)
Continuity mistake: Peter dives through the window of the attic, shattering it with shards of glass and window frame busting out and falling with him. When the camera pans down to him lying on the ground, there isn't a single shard of glass or piece of frame seen anywhere. (01:56:10)

Hereditary (2018)
Continuity mistake: In the classroom when Peter is being possessed, he slams his face down into his desk twice, splattering blood onto it. After he falls back screaming, the camera changes angles and now his desk is clear of blood. (01:38:25)

Day of the Dead: Bloodline (2018)
Revealing mistake: Baca is using a pistol to shoot the zombies towards the end and still has this same pistol at the end. When he's on the ground about to shoot himself to stop from turning, it shows a close up of his pistol which reveals it's a 6mm BB gun. (01:20:15)

Day of the Dead: Bloodline (2018)
Revealing mistake: After the zombies get loose inside the compound and attack the civilian sector, a woman in a blue bandanna gets jumped and pulled down behind a counter and killed. A blood spurt flies up to signify she's been bitten, however the splash of blood comes from in front of the counter. (01:16:00)

Day of the Dead: Bloodline (2018)
Continuity mistake: Lucy goes up to Max, taunting him and he snarls at her. In this shot the chain holding his right arm is tight against the wall like usual. But in the next shot as Lucy is backing up with her pistol, there is lots of slack in the chain with it resting along the ground. It's tight against the wall again holding him in the next shots. (01:04:20)

Day of the Dead: Bloodline (2018)
Revealing mistake: When Wendy is going to look for her boyfriend Steve and sees the blood dripping from the air duct, she reaches up towards it and you can see there is a spot of dried prop blood on her arm that's been partly wiped off before her hand ever comes in contact with the blood. (00:43:55)

Day of the Dead: Bloodline (2018)
Plot hole: Max, an intelligent zombie, gets into the air duct system and is crawling around above peoples' heads. This is an aluminum metal tube with open vents and he's a clumsy, untrained zombie. He climbs over peoples' heads in the vents banging the metal but nobody ever hears him. When Zoe and Baca kiss in the hallway, he even growls in anger and shifts around, not even 10 feet away from them growling through an open vent. Yet nobody ever hears him, until its convenient for the plot later and a guy thinks it's rats. (00:41:30)

Day of the Dead: Bloodline (2018)
Character mistake: After Baca and the other soldiers hear Zoe's shots, they take off to try and find her. It cuts to Zoe wandering the hall with her gun ready and backing up, where suddenly she backs into Baca who for some reason is also walking backwards and they get a jump scare. Only this makes absolutely no sense on Baca's part. It was in a doorway with the other men following him and the others were facing towards Zoe and could see her. Baca was leading them and yet was for some reason walking backwards through the door so that this jump scare could happen. (00:31:40)

Day of the Dead: Bloodline (2018)
Stupidity: Zoe and her team go into the medical university to get medical supplies for their camp and Lily. As they are leaving, Zoe sees the Epidemiology room where she used to work and waits, letting her team run off leaving her behind and then goes into the room alone so she can get pictures and some small bottles. Letting her team run off leaving her by herself in a zombie infested building in a city without telling her team that she's not following them. And this did lead to her having to shoot at a zombie that jumped her, alerting the other zombies around, and is what got Frank killed and lead to the smart zombie stowing away on their Hummers and sneaking into their camp. (00:29:35)

Day of the Dead: Bloodline (2018)
Continuity mistake: When Baca's Hummer starts throwing up steam and smoke from the engine, they slow down to stop and get out to check it out. As they are slowing down and coming to a stop, the camera shows a view from inside looking out the front windshield and there is a guard rail on the side of the rode that is right next to them as they stop. When the camera changes angles to outside as Baca opens the door, the guard rail is suddenly at least a good 5 or 6 car lengths behind them. (00:23:30)

Day of the Dead: Bloodline (2018)
Continuity mistake: After the crew inside the second Hummer talk about the foods they miss, it shows a shot of them going around a turn with the rear Hummer in the lane over and with the front Hummer half covered in shadows from the trees. In the next close up just before the lead Hummer starts to smoke, it is suddenly fully in the sun and the rear Hummer is suddenly right behind it. (00:23:20)

Day of the Dead: Bloodline (2018)
Character mistake: Zoe states that Lilly's condition is very contagious and will spread through the camp if they don't go out and get the proper medical supplies they need. She puts Lilly in quarantine... and then proceeds to visit Lilly with no protective equipment. No mask, and even touches Lilly with her bare hands before going back out to the rest of the people. (00:19:20)

Day of the Dead: Bloodline (2018)
Continuity mistake: Zoe and her friend are walking out of the medical training room at the start and she has her phone/ipod in her hands. In the next shot in a close up, she's suddenly putting her hands in her pockets. (00:04:35)

Blockers (2018)
Factual error: Right at the start of the film, it shows the girls going up for the first day of school which would have been around Fall. It shows tulips blooming in the garden, but tulips only bloom during the spring. (00:00:55)

Answer: Earlier in the film, Peter swerves the car to avoid hitting a dead animal in the road, resulting in Charlie's decapitation. That animal appears to be a goat (a ram) with slightly curled horns. Within the context of this movie, this is probably a Sabbatic Goat, alluding to Occult symbolism associated with the Mystic Pentagram and the Satanic deity Baphomet. The implication is that Satanic forces caused Peter to swerve off the road, killing Charlie in preparation for migrating her soul into Peter. The dead animal seen in the background at the end appears to be the Sabbatic Goat again, marking completion of Charlie's soul migration into Peter.
