Deliberate mistake: The disco ball doesn't start reflecting the sunrise until after the lead characters get out, even though it should have began to reflect light right when the door opened.
From Dusk Till Dawn (1996)
1 deliberate mistake
Directed by: Robert Rodriguez
Starring: George Clooney, Harvey Keitel, Salma Hayek, Juliette Lewis, Cheech Marin, Quentin Tarantino, Danny Trejo
Continuity mistake: Throughout the entire film the tattoo on George Clooney's neck moves position and changes shape.
Carlos: What? Were they psychos, or...?
Seth Gecko: They look like psychos? Is that what they looked like? They were vampires. Psychos do not explode when sunlight hits 'em. I don't give a fuck how crazy they are!
Trivia: When the Gecko brothers are at the hotel and George Clooney returns, the bag of food he's holding is from Kahuna Burger, the burger joint talked about by Samuel L Jackson in Quentin Tarantino's other movie, Pulp Fiction.
Question: How did the big, black vampire die? I know that he melted after Harvey Keitel ran him through with the shotgun, but I didn't see anything used that would actually "kill" a vampire. There was no holy water, crosses, etc. used on him.

Answer: Well Keitel turned the shotgun into a cross. So he touched the cross and melted.
