Continuity mistake: After her first time with Billy, Sid brushes her hair. She puts the brush back on the bedstand, but the phone on it changes angle between shots. Later in the scene, you can also see the brush's handle sticking out from the side of the bedstand by the bed, or the one facing front. (01:18:55)

Continuity mistake: When Gale and Dewey nearly end up as roadkill for a bunch of teenagers who are really on a rush to go see Fonzie hanging by his entrails, Gail initially is on Dewey's right, and you can see Courteney Cox pulling David Arquette's right arm. The stuntpersons though are in a different position, the woman being on the left. (01:17:50)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: When Randy pauses Halloween to launch himself into the famous "rules to survive a horror movie" speech, look at the table. There are two bottles of beer, the leftmost one apparently still with a cap. You can still see it when everyone toasts to the "no drugs and booze" rule. But as he reaches the third rule, the "I'll be right back" one, that beer is gone, and Stu is leaving to get himself a new beer. (01:13:35)

Other mistake: During Tatum's murder we see some problems exacerbate. The killers are not supposed to be invulnerable and are wearing a cheap costume, but they receive hard hits (Tatum breaks two bottles of beer, one straight to the face) and they don't have a single scratch. When she is killed, nobody hears her scream and nobody else needed to grab a beer either. Furthermore, Ghostface has the garage door fully open, but without knowing who is on the other side, that is one room away from the others, goes by the mysteriously unlocked door to the inside of the house. And we see Billy (who should be the killer there, since Stu was at the party) join in coming from outside.

Continuity mistake: In the garage scene, the position of the items by the door and switches changes without in theory anyone touching them, and does it suddenly too. For instance look at the blue board and how it is tilted towards the railing after Tatum has thrown the last bottle, or how the silver and red board is in front or behind another item. (01:05:00 - 01:07:00)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: When Stu announces all excited that the chick from the news show is at the door, look at the necklace he's wearing, and how it changes position (barely touches his shirt's neck in close-up, it's lower in the wider angle). A few moments after, when Tatum beckons Dewey, he is even wearing it under the shirt - and Stu hasn't messed with his clothes in the meantime. (01:03:30)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: The doorbell rings during the party and Stu tumbles over the couch to go get it; does so in two shots that are completely off when it comes to continuity, just look at his robe, and Rose McGowan's gestures with the toothpick. (01:03:15)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: The sheriff and Dewey are talking; one is smoking and the other has a cone. When the sheriff says that "it's been confirmed", Dewey takes a mouthful of ice cream, but at the cut he does it again, with perfectly clean lips and without having even the time to swallow the previous. Since the joke is that he takes a mouthful each time the sheriff takes a puff of smoke, he takes one too many, one before and one after the cut. (00:59:50)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: Billy gets in Randy's face as he says he's killer. Stu puts him in a hold, but the position of his hand in the lock changes between shots. (00:57:05)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: Randy wonders with Stu if Sidney may go out with him now that Billy kinda outed himself as a killer. Stu goes through extensive Matthew Lillard-isms hunching forward, but in the next shot when he answers deadpan "No. I don't. At all." he's standing straight. (00:56:15)

Sammo ★

Character mistake: Sidney asks on the porch why Cotton couldn't prove that he was having an affair with her mom. Tatum's answer is "Well, you can't prove a rumor. That's why it's a rumor." That's quite the preposterous answer, especially since the point she wants to make is that it was not in fact 'just' a rumor.

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: When Ferguson helps Simon Doyle on the couch, his tie slides off Simon's non-injured leg once, then in the next shot it is on it again and re-slips. (01:00:55)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the scene when Jackie gets drunk in record time, David Niven's shadow on the curtain changes sharply when the angle switches the first time; in the closer view he casts a deep shadow right behind his head, while in the wide angle of the room there's barely any shadow. In the same transition, Linnet is touching the cards with both hands first, simply holding her cigarette in the second shot. (00:57:55)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: When the doctor feels the need to make a precise assessment of the stone's age, the maid is suddenly close to the big rock between shots. (00:49:00)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: Linnet is enraged because apparently Salome Otterbourne featured her in her fiction book and equated her to "a nymphomaniacal baboon." Nonsense aside, she gets up holding the book. Angela Lansbury is looking at her, left hand upturned. Cut, and she is staring at her with both hands in her lap, downturned. (00:35:35)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: Mrs. Salome Otterbourne sits next to Linnet. Linnet is holding an object between her hands; when Salome says that writers can get flowery in their speech, Linnet replies drily, but the hands changed also position. They were at the same level in the first shot, they are one on top of the other in the follow-up. (00:35:00)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: Bowers and Van Schuyler retire in the cabin leaving Linnet behind them. The deck is dusky, but in the reverse angle that follows, there she is, on the fully sunlit deck. (00:34:30)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: During the conversation when Bette Davis' character is introduced to Lois Chiles', the background changes inconsistently between shots. (00:32:40)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: In the first conversation between Linnet and Mrs. Van Schuyler, Bette Davis' hands are positioned differently depending on the camera angle - either the right hand or the left hand on top of the other. (00:33:00)

Sammo ★

Continuity mistake: Simon and Linnet regain their wits after the unexpected encounter with Jackie on top of the pyramid of all places. They make out, and Linnet's hair changes radically position depending on the camera angle throughout the whole snogging. (00:14:35)
