Shinryakusha o ute - S1-E3

Revealing mistake: When the monster is revealed behind a column as the troops enter the building and it splits in two mirror images, they did not stop the clock in the background, which reveals whenever they stopped filming to change things in frame.

Other mistake: At the beginning of the episode it is said that the events take place 38 hours apart. It's 2:25 PM. We see then Arashi get up in the middle of the night, so it could easily be midnight...but then he reaches the station and it's daylight, and the kid is in his car, even. Moreover, when the troops enter, a clock inside the building points 2:10.

Continuity mistake: Arashi pulls over in the street where the research station is. The car stops a few meters after the turn, but when it's shown again, it's much further into the street. (00:06:15 - 00:06:50)

Death on the Nile (1978)

Continuity mistake: When Bette Davis' character bids farewell saying that the place resembles a mortuary, Maggie Smith next to her holds her bag to her chest, but in the next shot she is also holding her suitcase with the same hand. (02:16:40)

Death on the Nile (1978)

Continuity mistake: The streak of blood on Simon's neck changes from the first time we see it to the time when the second gunshot is fired. (02:15:25)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Ponty rebuffs Hedy's offer and says "Rosemary's going to be my secretary" holding her by the bare upper arms in the first shot, her sleeves in the next. (01:24:55)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: At the rooftop party, the president tells the other executives that the boy is "loaded with ideas"; rather obvious continuity mistake when you look at the man on the far left, who in one shot is drinking and in the next is not. (01:15:50)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Finch is spying Mr. Ovington; between shots the position of his brush is inconsistent and there are obvious variations in the soaped up part of the window. (01:11:40)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Rosemary gifts Ponty a yellow flower for his new office. When she leaves and Miss LaRue saunters towards the desk, the flower is pointing the other way. (01:02:40)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When it's time for the meddling nephew to sing his version of "Been a long day", Miss LaRue says the kid "could even name the hotel" and strikes a pose with her fingers pointing towards herself. Cut, her hand is outstretched, fingers pointing out. (00:44:25)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: During the second part of her performance in "Been A Long Day", Rosemary says "For dinner we could meet", placing entirely out of the way the magazines that she is still clutching to her chest in the next shot. (00:40:20)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Singing her part of "Been A Long Day" song, Smitty is at the first "Now she's thinking..."; Rosemary is holding her folder with her arms positioned differently, and Smitty herself first has her arms crossed, then her right arm is straight and she crosses it only in the second shot, and in the next cut her arms are both down, and then again up. (00:39:25)

Continuity mistake: When the secretaries start their dance getting set to work at 9 AM, the cord of the typing machine of the first one runs in front of the table in the establishing shot, and behind the table after she changes to the flat shoes. (00:11:25)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Finch gets inside Mr. Bratt's office. Meanwhile, Rosemary has brought her friends over, and they watch him come out of the office as a new employee. Throughout the scene, the people in the background change without consistency between camera angles.
