Visible crew/equipment: In the scene where doctor Hill's body is walking about on its own in the lab, it is more than obvious that there is a crew member stood behind it, pushing it forward.
Re-Animator (1985)
1 visible crew/equipment mistake
Directed by: Stuart Gordon
Starring: Jeffrey Combs, Barbara Crampton, Bruce Abbott, David Gale
Revealing mistake: In the scene where Herbert and Dan re-animate the dead corpse, watch closely when Herbert rams the little buzz saw into the corpse's chest. At the bottom of the screen, you can see where the fake chest ends.
Swiss Woman Doctor: You killed him.
Herbert West: No, I did not. I gave him life.
Trivia: Based only very loosely on the story "Herbert West: Reanimator" by H.P. Lovecraft, taking great liberties with the original story. This was, reportedly, one of Lovecraft's least favorite among his stories, one that he only wrote in order to "pay the bills."
