Idle Hands

Audio problem: During the scene right after Anton runs into the scarecrows in his house only to find out they are his deceased mom and dad, you see him run out to his porch and begin throwing up into his bushes. You can hear the sounds of liquid hitting the bushes, but you see nothing coming out of his mouth (there is enough light in the film to determine this).

Continuity mistake: When Tanya gets pulled into the fan Molly gets sprayed with her blood, and a couple of big red blobs land on her face. But when she runs into the art room seconds later, there is no blood at all on her face, not even smears where she might have tried to wipe it off.

More quotes from Idle Hands

Trivia: When the hand is killed and Mick complains about how there was "no explosions of hellfire," this is actually an inside joke. The original ending was completely different, and involved a giant portal, explosions, hellfire and tons of effects. However, this ending was dropped because the filmmakers felt it too scary compared to the rest of the movie. A new, more comedic ending was then shot. Mick complaining about the hand's simple death is a reference to the original, more intricate ending.
