Other mistake: Daric asks Ben to do "by tomorrow" a cheat sheet and get a 50 for it. Ben angrily crumples the sheet. At leas a day passes by, but there' a scene follows and Ben returns that same cheat sheet, neatly folded. He could have course have just copied it back on a pristine sheet, but he certainly didn't deliver it on the day he was asked to, but Daric makes no comment about it. (00:23:10)

Audio problem: In the cemetery, Christie fights a cop who attacks her with a baton that makes a super-exaggerated 'swoosh' sound; exaggeration aside, the last 'swhoosh' happens during a motion with no speed, so the sonic boom there is not just overkill, it's wrong. (01:06:40)

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 ★

Revealing mistake: After the sequence where the cops eagerly arm themselves with batons (at the funeral of two dozen armed with guns), the ninja disposes of a single motorcyclist. As she knocks him off the bike, you can see on the path the dirt marks at the center of the asphalt from previous takes. (01:06:10)

Sammo ★

Other mistake: Christie starts killing people at the funeral, and those in attendance start running away. When it shows a couple hiding behind a car, the woman is corpsing at best, the man is flat-out laughing. (01:05:15)

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 ★

Revealing mistake: Somehow, every ninja in this movie is really bad at being undetected. Sho Kosugi gets caught again by a guard after fighting with the ones outside the morgue, and disposes of him with a roundhouse kick. The stunt is comically bad, because you can see the guard literally throw himself at the wall headbutting it. (00:55:50)

Sammo ★

Revealing mistake: At the climax of the exorcism scene, Christie begins spinning at great speed. That's an impressive supernatural feat already, but the real scary part is that to do, so she also transmorphs into a dummy. (00:52:40)

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 ★

Other mistake: When the ninja slices at point-blank the obese cop in the pool room, the make-up used is a single strip of blood. Obviously they wouldn't show a graphic dismemberment or decapitation, but the man here practically dies from a cut on the cheek. Men do more harm to themselves shaving. (00:38:50)

Sammo ★

Revealing mistake: During the movie, the ninja crushes with their bare hands a golf ball (in the opening fight) and a billiard ball (in the fight against Case). Both times the ball is replaced by a shell filled with talcum powder. It's especially conspicuous in the case of the cue ball, because the previous 'stunt' involved slicing one in half and the ball looked nothing like the one she 'pulverizes'. (00:04:00 - 00:38:35)

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 ★

Other mistake: Upon facing AI enemies, one of Tobias' possible opening quotes is "I'm fighting a machine. I just need to read it's patterns." Should be "its".

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)
