Flight to Hell

Continuity mistake: Don swings the golf club at the creature on the bar; the stewardess ducks behind the counter and starts scurrying away. The creature jumps away, but in the next shot the bug jumps up her wazoo while she is standing and facing the counter. She couldn't be in that spot and in that position this fast. (01:04:15)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: The facehugger-like creature puked by the co-pilot escapes Don's swings by making a hole in the wall behind the rack. However, at the cut you can see that wall and the hole is gone. (01:03:10)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: First game of blackjack. The arm candy brunette whispers to her beau that everything will be fine. The casino guy moves his hand from chin to collar, but in the next shot he's back leaning against his palm with his chin. More of that in the next cut; her hand is on his shoulder, on the table at the cut. (00:30:10)

Continuity mistake: Janet escorts the two rich clients to their cabin, which happens to be literally next door. Forgetting the fact that it looks nothing like the luxury quarters of a plane, let alone a casino with millionaire bets, she closes the door, but then she comes out of the door that is still open. (00:23:40)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: The position, timing, and persistence of the green lights/auras induced by the 'storm' of green goo appear inconsistent throughout the scene. (00:14:00)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Janet and the tech guy are copulating on the kitchen counter. We see them through one of the airplane window, then the camera angle changes, and they are doing it with a solid wall as background. (00:13:55)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: First play, a couple wins $500,000. The flight attendant/croupier puts down 5 piles of red fiches. In the close-up where she completes the action, you can see on the table the glass the woman was drinking from a split-second before, and there's an orange chip that wasn't there. The player at the end of table is also holding his glass with a single hand and not two. (00:09:15)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Don and the others find the corpse lying face down into the money. The larger bloodstains are faithfully rendered from one shot to the next, but the bills and the actor's hand have changed position. (01:09:00)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: After the alien attack, the hole on the rich guy's forehead changes size between shots. (01:08:35)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: The rich guy keeps putting stacks of money inside the briefcase, but it never fills up, with gaps appearing at the cut in spots he previously filled. (01:08:25)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: After being violated in bizarre fashion, Janet slumps to the floor. Her dead body rests on the floor in a different position (arm on chest) just after. (01:05:10)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Don whacks the alien crab on the roulette; the cards on the table are different between shots (there is a cluster of three cards that is on the left, then on the right of the dead beast, for instance). (01:03:50)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When Don probes the first planter with the golf club, the position of the various plants changes between shots. (01:03:40)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: The barf puddle on the green changes in between shots, and Pat has her mouth open when Don pulls the alien out of her mouth, but closed in the shot that follows. (01:03:00)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Carol reports to Mike Don's message about the strange creatures eating up the plane's electrical system. Mike removes his visor at the cut, and suddenly on his chair you can spot the fingers of the woman next to him, who had her hand in a different spot before. (00:42:45)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Mike and the rich couple sit down to play some Virtual Chess. The brunette puts her hand on the guy's shoulder, but at the cut it's on the armchair's back. (00:41:25)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Jack tries to brainstorm a solution with Bob for jammed landing gear problem. Bob is useless though, and just start sobbing. In his close-up you can see the monitor on the console is switched off, while it's on in the wide shots of the room. (00:36:25)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Carol asks her boss if he wants a card, and he says no. In close-up, he has a finger up his cheek, and it was not so in the previous wider angle. (00:31:40)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Jack the tech guy picks the fried board up from the radio station. Between the close-up and the second shot of the scene, the shadow from the keyboard changes significantly. (00:32:25)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Pilots and flight control are talking about the weather forecast. There's a close-up of the control tower monitor. Next shot is a wider one, and the computer has a different layout of open windows. (00:30:55)

Sammo

Factual error: When Don records the flight log, he says that they have been in the storm for 5 hours. That does not seem to match the timing of the events in the movie, but on top of that, it's a Vegas-Phoenix flight. That's a 250 miles distance that would take little more than one hour. (01:07:30)
