Other mistake: When the Creature comes out of the amniotic fluid bath, he slips around and then gets caught in the chains. Victor falls asleep and then there is a sequence of shots of him and the Creature running through the laboratory. In one shot, he is kneeling by the door and pulling on Victor's coat to wear and you can see large indentations in his back and sides. These look like a rubber or latex covering to enlarge his frame that have flexed the wrong way and have become concave and appear totally unrealistic.

Audio problem: When the man with the peg leg is trying to resist getting a shot of anti-smallpox serum from Professor Waldman, he yells, "You're not sticking that in me. You're not sticking that in me." But if you look closely, you can see that his lips are not moving. (00:32:45)
The Creature: I do know that for the sympathy of one living being, I would make peace with all. I have love in me the likes of which you can scarcely imagine and rage the likes of which you would not believe. If I cannot satisfy the one, I will indulge the other.
Trivia: Cherie Lunghi (born 1952) is only eight years older than Kenneth Branagh (born 1960), despite them playing mother and son.
