Visible crew/equipment: When you see the two women at the mental institution, the camera angle is at their backs, the woman on the left is curious about Michael Myers. Before the other says that she decapitated a man, you see down the end of the hallway a man kneeling down, possibly a crew member. In the next shots of the hallway, he is gone. (00:03:10)

Continuity mistake: After Willie sees his partner's head in the washing machine, he panics and walks backwards. He trips over the dead body of his partner, he falls over his body and his arms are straightened out, but when you see him next his arms are straight against his waist and hips. (00:09:25)

Continuity mistake: After Willie trips over his beheaded partner his torch is in his left hand but after Michael Myers slices his throat and falls down his torch is in his right hand. (00:09:35)

Continuity mistake: At the start just after Willy sees his partner's head in the washing machine, he gets his throat cut and there is blood all over the knife. Later on when Michael is approaching Laurie's room, his knife just has blood on the tip, only halfway up the blade. (00:09:35 - 00:10:20)

Visible crew/equipment: When Michael Myers enters Harold's room at the institution and hands over the knife Harold says, "Michael Myers". If you look carefully on the wall on his right you can see shadows of camera equipment and wiring and also when he is walking past the window you can see a reflection of a camera. (00:14:45)

Revealing mistake: At the start after the main title appears you can see the outside of Haddonfield University and you can easily tell that the building is a digital composition. (00:16:10)

Revealing mistake: When Dr Mixter is talking about Carl Jung in the classroom the camera pans over the students and if you look at the blonde girl with the pink sweater on she stares at the camera for about a second. (00:16:35)

Continuity mistake: When Sara is riding up the school pathway on her moped,beside her you see a boy pulling his bike along approaching his friends and he is about half a meter away but in the next shot the boy with the bike is about two meters away from his friends. (00:17:05)

Audio problem: At the start, Sara is driving her moped at the school. Jen arrives and asks, 'Guess what?' Then she says, 'We gotta find Rudy. Come on.' When she says 'Come on,' her mouth doesn't move. (00:17:20)

Continuity mistake: At the start of the film after the crazy guy is pushed out of the room Sara says, 'I just need to send a quick e-mail.', and when you see her type it in there is a really long word or sentence on the screen but in the next shot close up there is just the word 'Deckard'. (00:19:40)

Continuity mistake: After Deckard receives the e-mail on his computer he writes about three lines below but about five seconds later when you see the computer screen he is just beginning the sentence on the first line. (00:19:55)

Revealing mistake: When Deckard and his friend are in his bedroom on the computer you see a window beside him and outside you can see that there are painted clouds on a wall. (00:20:20)

Continuity mistake: In wide shots of Deckard at his computer, the image on the monitor shows a basic white page with black and blue lettering. In close-up shots of the monitor, the image is much more detailed, showing a colorful college chat page. (00:20:35)

Continuity mistake: When you see Sara riding her moped up on the road on the way to the meeting with Freddy the sky is blue and dark but when you see her enter the door to the room you can see in the background sunlight coming in from the windows onto the walls. (00:20:50)

Audio problem: When Sara enters the large room with the meeting with Freddy, Jen comes up to her and says 'Sara,' but her mouth doesn't move. (00:20:55)

Continuity mistake: When Freddy rendezvous with the gang, Jen's hair when she is applauding at the back is tied in two scruffy bunches sticking out. A couple of seconds later, she has only one bunch tied. From then on, it is tied in two bunches. (00:21:30)

Continuity mistake: After Sara sees the reflection of Michael Myers in the mirror, Jen is beside her. Jen turns her head to Donna when Donna says, 'The bogeyman?' In the next shot, Jen turns her head again. (00:25:10)

Continuity mistake: When you see Deckard is in his room with his friend the second time Deckard is relaxed,leant back on his chair with his cheek resting on his fist but in the very next shot he is typing on his computer. (00:25:25)

Revealing mistake: Freddy's car is parked outside Michael Myers' house twice. First, when the trunk is open with the adapted machine and then he parks on the other side of the road after Charlie gets killed. (00:27:15 - 00:30:00)

Revealing mistake: When you see Freddy's car parked outside the Myers' house when the trunk is open,you can easily tell that the background is artificially created and there is a wall at the side with painted clouds. (00:27:20)

Laurie Strode: You failed, Michael. Want to know why? Because I'm not afraid of you. But what about you? Are you afraid of me? Are you afraid to die, Michael?

More trivia for Halloween: Resurrection

Question: It was revealed that the person who Laurie thought she killed wasn't Michael but somebody who Michael had subdued and placed his clothes and mask on. Why would Laurie be sent to an institution for this? She wasn't aware of the fact that she killed the wrong person until the mask was removed, and since the staff seem to know about her connection to Michael, wouldn't they consider letting her go since she was only trying to stop Michael's rampage?

Answer: At first impression, Laurie was catatonic not only from the shock of killing an innocent man, but also from a lifetime of being chased down by her murderous brother. She obviously knows from past experiences that nothing she does (including faking her own death) will stop Michael from finding her. It is later revealed she has been faking her mental issues (think when she has been hiding her regular meds in the raggedy Ann doll) and is committed only to stopping Michael, no matter what the cost. She may have also been trying to protect her son and the only way to do that is to allow herself to be institutionalized in order to lure Michael there.

Answer: It's not properly explained (nothing in this stupid movie is), but the implication is that she went a little crazy due to the guilt of killing an innocent man and was institutionalized.
