Alligator II: The Mutation

Revealing mistake: The sequence when Wino Henry gets hit by the tail of the gator and thrown against the wall is all sorts of wrong; in the first part of it, the victim is just standing there in the silliest way and in fact professional bum actor Carmen Filpi 'corpses' waiting for the special effect to happen. In the second part, he's replaced by a poorly disguised stuntman. (00:29:20)

Revealing mistake: Brown grabs the contracts and runs away. He and his trusted henchman spot the alligator; in the shot just before the one where Brown gives the ever useful order "Kill him", the alligator is visible in all its fakery. (01:14:15)

Sammo

Revealing mistake: The alligator emerges from the lake and after knocking back a Carrot Top clone, he begins scuttling through the crowd. In the orgy of poor special effects, it's of particular note a shot where people supposedly are running away from the beast but half the extras are giggling and one guy doesn't even bother to run, just glances bored at the 'monster' less than 2 meters away from him.

Sammo

Revealing mistake: When the alligator breaks the wall after David failed to kill him with the grenade, the fake jaws are strikingly obvious and completely different from the alligator's look in the part that follows. (00:49:45)

Sammo

Revealing mistake: The mayor's daughter Sheri hits the villain with a punch that the policemen call "a haymaker" and that hurt her hand. It was anything but; just a bad fake movie punch. (00:30:10)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: David arrived home late for his birthday and his wife is mighty irritated; she serves him on purpose a couple of completely charcoaled steaks. However, the food looks completely different in the close-up (there's much less of it, for starters). (00:15:45)
