Curse of Chucky (2013)

Continuity mistake: After the wheelchair smashes on the ground, its pieces and the banister pieces change positions next time we see them.

Curse of Chucky (2013)

Visible crew/equipment: When Nica is pushed through the railing by Chucky, you get a quick but clear look at the stunt double's face, who looks nothing like actress Fiona Dourif. Her arms noticeably also get more toned when this happens. Finally, for a second, you can see her moving her one leg, which shouldn't happen since Nica is supposed to be paralyzed.

Curse of Chucky (2013)

Revealing mistake: When Ian's jaw gets hacked off, the blood that splatters on his shirt almost all just beads and rolls off, rather than sticking, and is super thick, revealing it's fake.

Curse of Chucky (2013)

Factual error: When Ian is checking his laptop and Nica is bound and gagged behind him, you can see her moving her feet a bit, even though she's supposed to be paralyzed.

Curse of Chucky (2013)

Continuity mistake: When Nica smashes the car window, there's still a lot of glass around the frame. It all vanishes in the next shot.

Curse of Chucky (2013)

Other mistake: It makes no sense for Ian to have so much blood on his shirt after he grabs Nica and carries her down to the garage. She didn't have enough blood on her to coat his shirt.

Curse of Chucky (2013)

Other mistake: This is hard to describe. When Nica finds Jill's dead body, you can see the side of her wheelchair and feet on the right side of the screen, and they've been laid over the top of the image in post-production. Their angle literally makes no sense. Her chair would have to be leaned 45 degrees to the side for the shot to be possible. Jill also wasn't close enough to the door where Nica is for the shot to be possible.

Curse of Chucky (2013)

Continuity mistake: When Barb pulls the first few bits of skin off Chucky's face, it's very noticeable when they switch from one Chucky prop-head to the next. Suddenly, the stitching (especially on his lip) has much more detail, and some of the imperfections vanish.

Curse of Chucky (2013)

Continuity mistake: When Barb notices the "loose skin" on Chucky's face, it just sort of appears between cuts. The implication was that it came loose over the film but up until that very shot, his face looked pristine.

Curse of Chucky (2013)

Continuity mistake: When Barb puts Chucky down in the attic, when the rocking horse scares her, Chucky's face goes from being in the shadows to illuminated instantly between cuts.

Curse of Chucky (2013)

Factual error: When Nica is pulling herself up the stairs while Barb is in the attic, at one point she calls for Alice. Right after this, you can see her subtly bend her right knee. She's supposed to be paralyzed, so this shouldn't happen. The next time it comes back to her, you can also subtly see her moving her feet and toes a little bit.

Curse of Chucky (2013)

Deliberate mistake: When Barb is in the attic, she finds two pictures of sunflowers in front of her. It then cuts to the "opposite" angle of Barb, and those exact same two pictures are suddenly behind her. In fact, everything behind her is the same. It appears to be two slightly different shots from the exact same angle that they tried to "cheat" as being two different angles. (They almost get away with it because the second shot is wider, but once you notice the pictures, it's far too obvious.)

Curse of Chucky (2013)

Continuity mistake: Right after Nica and Barg get into an argument over the doll, Nica's feet go from together to about 6" apart. The character is in a wheelchair and can't move her legs, so this makes no sense.

Curse of Chucky (2013)

Continuity mistake: After Nica gets into an argument with Barb over the doll, Nica pulls out her phone and then slams it down into her lap. Immediately in the next shot, the phone vanishes.

Curse of Chucky (2013)

Continuity mistake: When Chucky kicks the bucket over, not only can you see the water hit Jill's feet twice between cuts. And both times, the way it hits her feet is different, revealing it's two different takes. (The water is more forceful the first time, while the second it's a bit "softer.")

Curse of Chucky (2013)

Visible crew/equipment: When Chucky kicks over the bucket to electrocute Jill, you can just barely see something small and white sticking out from underneath the bucket, which moves when the bucket tips over. It appears to be part of the mechanism that actually "kicks" it over.

Curse of Chucky (2013)

Deliberate mistake: The video feed from Jill's laptop doesn't match the angle we see her laptop in. The image should be a weird, low-angle shot with lots of space above her head given her laptop is down on her lap, but the image we see is a pristine parallel shot. Additionally, the video footage is way too high quality for a 2013 laptop webcam. (Heck, it's too high quality for a 2024 laptop webcam.)

Curse of Chucky (2013)

Continuity mistake: When Barb and Jill are flirting over a video call, the second time Barb tries to signal Jill that she thinks Alice is up, her hand gets much closer to the laptop between cuts. (In the first shot, it's up near her shoulder; in the second, it's right over the laptop keyboard.)
