Continuity mistake: Lieutenant Bowers questions the survivor of the first encounter with the alien, suspecting he might have just clobbered a love rival. The telephone rings; after it happens, the sheet in front of the suspect does a 180°. (00:09:35)

The Vultures (1984)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When the people in the control room wake up and find out there's "A freakin' Kaiju", the clocks are showing entirely different timezones from the previous instances, with a wild difference from one another (earlier they were a couple hours apart, now we have even 9 hours), and none of which matching the time when the action supposedly takes place (it was late morning, past 10 AM as shown by the surveillance room clock and the phone in the hands of Harley's torturer).

Pledge This! (2006)

Continuity mistake: Used condoms start trickling down from a jar stuck in a tree. The woman subjected to this unusual rain looks up and one of the condoms gets on her face, over her eye. When the big bundle of condoms drops on her head, it is shown through two shots that are not at all in continuity with one another; different posture, head angle and the eye condom is gone and then back. (00:40:15)

Tiger Claws (1991)

Continuity mistake: When Cynthia Rothrock acts as a bait for the maniac at the beginning of the movie, she is walking down the nice and brightly lit slums in black high heels. A fight ensues, and she kicks him around wearing black sneakers (after her triple roundhouse she strikes a pose in a wide shot and it's very noticeable). Her incompetent partner joins in late, and she walks out on him wearing high heels again. (00:01:55)

Sammo

Sammo

Continuity mistake: After killing the guards all around her, Harley rushes into the next room, kicking the door open, and begins fighting in close quarters with more. She breaks the arm of one of the guards who tries to stab her through the bars. In the sequence, the red wrap is covering her fingers in one shot, it's underneath them in the next. (01:12:15)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of her escape, Harley faces three guards. The rightmost one is smoking a cigarette, then has no cigarette in his mouth, then he has it again. (01:11:25)

Sammo

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Ratcatcher 2 tries on some round glasses holding the box with her thumb on the top of the side, into the opening. Wider shots have her hand placed towards the bottom. (00:53:35)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: El Presidente Luna stops moving and bleeds from his mouth with his palm against the floor. He's wide-eyed dead and motionless, but next time we see him after Harley stops musing over how well-endowed he was, his hand is turned around, palm up. (00:48:35)
