Continuity mistake: When Roger returns from leaving his partner Ben who is captured by the Vietnam enemy, note the position in which Harold is holding the stoker object in his right hand whilst propped on the mattress, it moves from his stomach to his upper chest between cuts.

Continuity mistake: In the Sandy/demon scene she knocks over the big round wooden table that has an ornament on. After Roger shoots her he picks up the table but does not replace the ornament. Yet when the cops enter his house the ornament is back on the table.

Continuity mistake: When Rogers blasts the Sandy/demon out through the front doors we see a supposedly large bloody hole in her back, but no blood nor damage to the doors.

Continuity mistake: When Sandy turns into the demon she's still wearing her own clothes, however her footwear has gone from high-heels to blue socks and white leg warmers. Most noticeable when she gets shotgunned out through the front doors of the house. Then she reverts back to human and is wearing high-heels again.

Paul Andrews

Continuity mistake: After the cops leave Roger's house, Roger is fighting with the Sandy/demon upstairs, note how the large shotgun hole in her body has suddenly disappeared.

Paul Andrews

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the film, when sending the DeLorean into the future, the wide shot shows the DeLorean heading for Marty and Doc then disappears leaving a trail of fire. Notice the cut as the car park goes from being dry to wet with puddles. (00:20:00)

Paul Andrews

Continuity mistake: Marty is hitching a ride on the back of a jeep, a wide shot shows him going past and beyond the 'Lou's Aerobic Fitness Center' next to the Texaco garage, there's a cut to his skateboard then back to a medium shot of him going pass the same fitness centre again, this time waving to the people inside. (00:06:00)

Paul Andrews

Continuity mistake: 1955 Skateboard Chase Scene around Town square. After Marty falls over the couple, a shot of Biff's car shows all the passengers standing up, but in the very next frame everyone is sat down. Also, that is not Biff driving. (01:04:20)

Paul Andrews

Continuity mistake: Enchantment under the sea dance: In addition to the comment about Strickland's hands covering his ears twice note some of the people around him have either moved or disappeared. (01:25:55)

Paul Andrews

Continuity mistake: In the 1955 skateboard chase scene around the town square, note how the skateboard used throughout the whole chase scene changes at least 4 times. Namely different wheels, trucks and the trucks' wooden mountings. (01:03:15)

Paul Andrews

Revealing mistake: 1955 skateboard chase scene around town square. Note in this scene a metal device has been added between the kicktail and the back truck of the skateboard to create the sparks, then disappears and reappears throughout the whole chase scene. (01:03:40)

Paul Andrews

Continuity mistake: School Cafeteria 1955, Biff groping Lorraine Baines. Between Marty trying to convince George McFly that Lorraine fancies him and pulling Biff off Lorraine, note the dis/reappearance of the child in a blue/red t-shirt and a man in a blue shirt/tank top sat at the table behind George. (00:57:25 - 00:58:45)

Paul Andrews

Continuity mistake: Cafe 1955, when Marty enters for the first time. The arrangement of the coats on the rack to the right-hand side of the cafe doors changes upon Marty's initial entrance and returning to the counter after using the phone booth. (00:35:50 - 00:36:40)

Paul Andrews

Continuity mistake: 1955 Skateboard Chase Scene around Town square. Throughout the whole chase scene two visible different stunt drivers are used to drive the two different models of Biffs' Ford. One is a 1946, the other is a 1947. Note the different position and shape of the front turn sign. (01:04:25)

Paul Andrews

Continuity mistake: Beginning of film. When Marty arrives at Twin Pines as the Doc requested he cruises up alongside Einstein on his skateboard, saying "Where's the doc, boy?" There's a cut to the truck opening, then back to Marty, and for some strange reason the yellow wheels on his skateboard have turned pink, but the reflection on the wet car park is still yellow. It cuts back to the DeLorean coming out of the truck then back to Marty, and his wheels are yellow again. This doesn't happen in the VHS version. (00:17:40)
