Near Dark (1987)

Revealing mistake: When Caleb is running for the van (during the motel shootout) there is a dramatic moment when he is shot in the back and is in pain. As he goes to wrap the blanket around himself you can see an orange tube leading underneath his clothing above his pants. Presumably this tube is pumping the smoke to simulate burning. (00:59:44)

However, if you watch the girl who flicks the light switches you can see the switches are already in the "on" position (pointed upwards) and she simply mimes flicking them up. (00:26:47)

Suggested correction: It's a prop head resting on a freezer shelf. It could simply be that opening the freezer door causes the head to sway a little, similar to if you had an egg, lemon, or something else that didn't have a flat bottom resting on a shelf inside a fridge.

Phaneron

No, the way it was filmed was with the actual actress putting her head up through a hole in shelf. It's her head moving.
