The Principal (1987)

Continuity mistake: Rick is pacing behind his ex and the lawyer. He goes past a man in a grey suit in a shot, another man in a grey suit coupled with a woman in a second one, and the next one shows him in the room without either of those people behind him. (00:03:15)

Continuity mistake: When Rick jumps on the bar counter to grab the bat, the beers mugs in front of his friends to his left change quantity of liquid and direction the handle points at. (00:03:10)

The Principal (1987)

Continuity mistake: The protagonist just flushed down the drugs a girl was selling in a bathroom stall. She threatens him saying "Someone's gonna come lookin' for you." In the next shot, the shadow she and the other poofy-haired girl by the stall project on the door tripled in size. (00:33:30)

Voodoo Passion (1977)

Voodoo Passion (1977)

Continuity mistake: Jack's sister invites Susan to give her a kiss. She has her elbow on the sheets. She giggles and there's a reverse shot, and the sheets now go up to her armpit. (00:09:20)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Mr. Stillwell limps his way into the parking lot after work, his jacket on his shoulder. He gets blindsided by an ugly dude who punches him away and...the jacket is gone, lost forever, not on the ground, just vanished. (01:08:00)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When Van Damme flies out of the ring (handspringing like a pro-wrestler), the surprise and cheer from Ian's cornerpeople is different across the two shots (for instance, Dean leans in to look at two very different times). (01:35:40)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Van Damme rips his shirt off and drops the gloves. Starts circling his young opponent. You can see the items he drops but a couple of shots later they are in the corner in different position, which will change again when he brutalizes the opponent against the ropes. (01:34:00)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Ivan in his rage puts Ian through the ropes flipping him; to be flipped, Ron Pohnel is holding the ropes; the second one in the first shot, the top rope in the second shot. (01:32:55)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: For the final part of Ian and Ivan's first round, the timer jumps from 1:03 to 0:58 during one of Ian's punches. (01:29:35)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Ian and Ivan start trading blows with the referee looking at them kinda frightened in the corner, both arms over the top rope. Next shot and he's watching the same exchange but with his hands down. (01:28:55)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Soon in the Ian vs Ivan fight the two end up on the ground exchanging kicks. Kelly is at ringside; her hair is in a different position on the lapel of her jacket between shots. (01:28:45)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Scott and Ian get in the ring to carry Frank away. Dean is holding the second ring up with his right arm, which becomes the left at the cut. (01:27:30)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: The time jumps ahead from 1:23 to 1:14 when Van Damme throws his second opponent in the ropes wrestling-style. (01:27:20)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: In his fight with Sugarfoot Peter Cunningham, Van Damme unbalances him right away and starts kicking him while he staggers to the ropes. The clock shows 1:52 to the end of the round, but in the mere space of a kick (and a camera cut) it jumped to 1:48. (01:26:35)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Dean flies off the ring when the ringside clock is at 1:07 and lands at 1:03. That's a pretty long fly, even if it was a spinning kick from Van Damme to knock you off your feet. The ref then calls the match off when the countdown is at 1:04. (01:25:35)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: The Karate Fight Emcee motions the two teams to get quiet after their ring entrance. He does it holding the arena microphone in his left hand, which becomes his right hand all of a sudden, since the left is holding his cue card. (01:19:05)
