Revealing mistake: When the girl on the motorcycle is trying to tie Mike's legs together by driving around them in circles, his legs are obviously props. This also goes for later, when he is lying on the ground and the townspeople are trying to tie him up. When his legs are in shot, they look fake, and never moves an inch.

Only the Strong (1993)

Revealing mistake: During the fight in the chop shop, a man with a tire iron swings at Louis and he avoids it, leading the tire iron into a switch box. The man holding the tire iron is electrocuted, but Louis is still holding onto him with his bare hands without suffering any ill effects.

Richard III (1995)

Revealing mistake: After Richard has accepted that he will be king, he appears before a large assembly. Several of the soldiers standing by the walls are obviously plastic dummies. They have unnaturally smooth and blank facial features, and when you can see their hands, they are not grasping their guns, but merely holding their hands stiffly out with the gun between them.

Revealing mistake: When Dr. Vornoff has been subject to his own machine, and has gained "the strength of 20 men", you can easily see the platform shoes worn by Bela Lugosi's stunt double to make him bigger than Tor Johnson. Dr. Vornoff did not wear these shoes when he was strapped to the table, they only appear after he gets up.

Revealing mistake: Every time the octopus kills someone, it is painfully obvious that the octopus is fake, as it never moves. The actors are only lying on top of it with a couple of tentacles wrapped around them, and thrashing about to make it appear as thought they are being killed. It never really works.

Revealing mistake: During the fight between Dr. Vornoff and Lobo, Lobo is being thrown through the doorway of the lab and grabs the wall to steady himself. The whole wall bends, as though made of plywood.

Revealing mistake: When Louie is driving from the mansion, at several times it is obvious that he is not really driving the car. When the car is going straight ahead, he often turns the wheel, and vice versa. This is most obvious just after Vinnie has died, and Louie is asking "Vin? Hey, Vin, you with me over there?". The car is then going through a 90 degree bend in the road, but Louie does not move the steering wheel at all.

Vampires (1998)

Revealing mistake: When Montoya uses a spear to toss the vampire woman from the prison door into the sunlit street, it is an obvious dummy that has been used. First you see the woman stumble out, and the first flames shoot out of her, then the angle changes to a close-up of her as she is engulfed in fire. In the close-up, she has become bigger and rounder, and does not move.

Hobgoblins (1988)

Revealing mistake: When Pixie is using a bottle to beat up the MC at Club Scum, you can see that not a single one of her blows actually hit him. In fact, they miss by several inches. The MC, of course, groans in pain and reacts as though he's been hit every time.

Revealing mistake: The chimpanzee, Jebo, is wearing a dress and imitating dancing in one scene. As Jebo runs off, Jane exclaims "My dress.". There is NO WAY that dress could have fitted a grown woman. It is a pretty nice fit for the much smaller monkey, though.

Lethal Weapon 4 (1998)

Revealing mistake: When Riggs jumps from the car onto the house that's being moved, you can see when the stuntman replaces Mel Gibson. Look at his hair, it changes styles as he jumps.

Dracula (1931)

Revealing mistake: When Renfield walks up to the front door of the castle, he is in a court yard where the only light comes from torches. But the light is enough to make him throw a clear shadow on the wall, and the shadow never flickers as it would in torch light.

Twotall

Revealing mistake: The "Old man-ghoul" changes appearances drastically throughout the entire movie. In some scenes, it is Bela Lugosi in vampire cape, in others it is the famous "double" who is a head taller than Lugosi, a lot thinner and has a different hairstyle. He covers his face with his cape, but this does not help a lot...

All The Way - S6-E6

Revealing mistake: In one fight scene, Buffy uses a car door to block a kick from a vampire. The window of the car breaks before the kick connects with it. In fact, it breaks while the foot is still in mid-air. (00:37:00)
