Sammo

Continuity mistake: After one of his coworker smashed a gravestone with his baton, a second cop gets close enough to the ninja to grab his/her arm. The ninja punches him away with a blow from right to left, which is not in continuity with the previous shot. (01:06:35)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: When Christie's wardrobe tries to suck her in, the items that are being drawn in and therefore slide on he floor, change between shots with no logic. For instance, we see an empty metal vase, then the same vase with marbles, then just the marbles. (01:02:00)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: The priest is praying and unknowingly almost exorcises the evil ninja, he is holding his onusa (the stick thingy) with one hand or both hands, and when they both speak Japanese the grip of the left hand differs between angles. (00:50:00)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: Once Christie is all tied up, the ceremony begins. Miyashima is holding a pipe that faces opposite ways between shots when he holds it with both hands. Still holding it with both hands he brings it to her lips, then in close-up suddenly he holds it with just one hand. (00:49:20)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: In the opening kick of the billiard fight, Christie's foot touches the Miller time lamp suspended over the pool table, which logically begins to undulate. In the next shot, the lamp is perfectly still and untouched. Similar mistake a minute later at the end of the scene; when she leaves using the window, the lamp is moving but almost comes to a complete halt, only to be back swinging wildly at the cut. (00:38:00 - 00:39:00)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: The scene where Christie eventually succumbs to the arcade machine begins with her top bearing a huge sweatstain throughout the whole length, but ends with the stain considerably reduced (to be fair, there is no frame of reference to categorically exclude that laser beams emitted from bootleg cabinets possessed by evil ninja demons double as dryers, but we can assume it's not the case). (00:33:15 - 00:35:20)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: Christie triggers Secord's odd tomato juice fetish, and they have sex. She wakes up and checks out the katana in the wardrobe. The sword floats shaking in different ways depending on the camera angle, and the lighting wildly differs as well. (00:29:00)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: Christie battled the musclehead molesters and her love interest didn't lift a finger to help. He then abuses his cop powers driving her around without her consent; the boulevard he's driving through changes between shots. (00:25:15)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: After the aerobics class, Christie tells her friendly cop stalker that coffee is bad for his health. In that particular shot she has a sweaty lock of hair sticking to her neck. In the rest of the scene her bouffant 80s hair is styled differently. (00:22:55)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: When the cops surround the black ninja 'mortally' wounded and still find a way to get killed, the dangerous ninja is in full sunlight in the first angle, then he's in the shade. (00:10:45)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: After failing to outrun the patrol car on the dirt road (without attempting to lose it in the tree or anything), the ninja turns around and jumps over it. The younger cop in the passenger seat raises his hand and sticks it out of the window; it's there in two shots, and not in the close-up. (00:06:45)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: When the first victim of the ninja arrives at the designated spot for the ambush, he stops the golf cart and in a long shot he reaches for his club. In the closer angle the girl on the cart is in a pose inconsistent with what previously shown, and moments later he asks the bodyguards to help him search the ball, holding the club in a pose that changes at the cut. (00:03:30)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: During the stunt where the motorcycle goes down the flight of stairs, the actors are replaced by stuntmen - and the one replacing Biff Manard wears the jacket buttoned up all the way, as opposed to the actor. (01:02:10)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: Jack has just learned about Whistler's evil plan from the TV. He tosses a sleepy Leena her kimono; she is touching her hair with her hand, but in close-up she gets a faceful of silk with no hand. (00:47:35)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: When the cops catch up with Jack and Leena in the parking lot of the Caheunga Boulevard salon, the first cop says "Freeze." Jack raises his hands, which are in front of Leena. Reverse angle, and he's touching Lena's back. (00:31:20)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: When Helen Hunt recovers from the "long second" and asks "Why aren't we dead?" her hair changes position on the lapels of the denim jacket between shots. (00:33:35)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: When Leena walks away from Jack (who just 'guessed' her name) saying "Thank God", her hair is a mess under the hat. It's more neat when the camera angle changes. (00:21:50)

Sammo ★

Black Butterfly Murder Case: File 1 - S3-E1

Continuity mistake: Kindaichi spots Ruri's ball after the death threat. The ball lies in the grass turned in a different direction at the cut. (00:00:21)

Sammo ★

Black Butterfly Murder Case: File 1 - S3-E1

Continuity mistake: When the three daughters of the host do their little choreography, you see the painting of the butterfly in the close-ups of the eldest two. In the wide shot, they are so close to the wall and the painting is set so high on it that it should have been impossible to see the wings. (00:11:20)

Sammo ★

Ryuusui, Chimaera no Otoko - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: When Crosswords has the first attack of Chimera witnessed by Black Jack, his wife Sayuri runs to the fridge to grab the bottles. In the shot with the camera inside the fridge, there is a full complement of bottles in the bottom shelf, but in the other angle the right half of the shelf is occupied by glasses only. (00:09:15)
