Resident Evil: Extinction picture

Revealing mistake: As Carlos is giving his final goodbyes to Claire you can see in the background automobiles driving down the freeway. Shouldn't these roads be empty rather than having what seems to be a thriving highway? (01:10:00)

28 Weeks Later picture

Revealing mistake: During the scene where the military loses control of London, and their snipers are told "all targets are free", you can see heavy padding beneath Infected/civilian victims' shirts, etc, as they're shot. Presumably it's to stop them injuring themselves when they fall over, or to hold apparatus for the blood effects, but it's too bulky to be part of the characters' clothing.

Saw IV picture

Revealing mistake: When Art is hitting the Trevor (the blinded man) character with the hammer/hatchet in the beginning, if you look closely, you can see blood coming from Trevor's head, yet there is no wound or cut. The blood is actually coming from the prop that is hitting him in the head. (00:09:00)

Wrong Turn 2: Dead End picture

Revealing mistake: When Jake is being tied up, he's holding his hands up to make it easier for the cannibal to tie up. Also when they drag him out of view, he's holding his head up so it doesn't drag the ground, although he's supposed to be unconscious during all this.

The Insatiable picture

Revealing mistake: Sean Patrick Flanery plays a nerd who has trapped a female vampire in a cage. About 3/4 of the way into the movie, he tricks a co-worker into visiting, planning to feed him to her. He extends his right arm through the bars, and she starts to caress and kiss it, then begins to bite it and suck his blood. When he tries to withdraw, she tears off his arm at the shoulder. But in the next shot, he and Flannery both hit the floor outside the cage, and the co-worker's right arm is visible. However, when the scene begins, both Flanery and the co-worker are wearing watches on their left wrists, and in the shot of them on the floor, both have watches on the right, suggesting that the image has been reversed.

Revealing mistake: The opening shot of the movie shows a rabbit hopping up from the bank of a road and then being hit by a car. You can, however, tell that the rabbit is not real because as it moves up the bank, none of the grass moves as the rabbit bounces through it. (00:01:05)
