Stonehearst Asylum picture

Factual error: Newgate makes a reference to Mickey Finn's name being the same as that of a Chicago bartender who used to drug his patrons with knockout drops. However, the film is set in 1899, but the real Mickey Finn wasn't caught until 1903.

As the Gods Will picture

Continuity mistake: The students' 3rd game is Kagome with 4 Kokeshi dolls. The pink doll starts to the right of the first student to play, the dolls move in a circle around him, she passes in front of him and by the end of the shot she is near his left. The Kokeshi dolls all move backwards between shots and the pink doll passes in front of the student again. After this, she takes 7 seconds to move about 100° despite nobody slowing down and she took that amount of time to move about 170°.

Dead Snow 2: Red vs. Dead picture

Revealing mistake: As Glenn, Blake and Monica are being surrounded by zombies, as Monica asks "Fucking hell, how many more of these are there?", in the background you can see a zombie sitting astride his victim, flailing away with a hammer or hatchet. It is obvious that he is just swinging his arm back and forth, without connecting with anything. It looks as if he is dusting, not slaying someone. (01:23:50)

Alien Abduction picture

Factual error: The alien drops the video camera out of the UFO from outer space and it falls to earth landing on the ground. This very far drop would certainly have busted it to pieces, if not ignited it on reentry, but when the guy picks it up off the ground, it appears only the screen is cracked.

The Possession of Michael King picture

Revealing mistake: Tortured by the demonic voices in his head, Michael King goes into a self-mutilating frenzy with a kitchen knife, except that he squeezes the handle of the bleeding-knife prop a bit too hard and it squirts fake blood horizontally across his chest.

Let Us Prey picture

Continuity mistake: At the end of the film we see stuff being crossed out in a notebook. The lines that are drawn through the words keep changing from being perfectly straight to being at an angle.
