Tales from the Darkside: The Movie (1990)
2 plot holes - chronological order
Directed by: John Harrison
Starring: Julianne Moore, Steve Buscemi, Christian Slater, Matthew Lawrence, David Johansen, Debbie Harry, Deborah Harry, David Forrester
Continuity mistake: In "Lover's Vow" Wyatt leaves the bar after firing Preston, leaving his drink and newspaper on the end of the bar. In the next shot the paper has changed position and in the next shot it completely disappears. (00:58:50)
Halston: Don't worry, Drogan. I'll kill your cat for you.
Drogan: Good. Kill it, bury it, and bring me its tail so I can throw it in the fire and watch it burn.
Trivia: George A. Romero wrote the screenplay for the segment "Cat From Hell," so director John Harrison put two references to Romero's work into this film as a kind of payment. In "Lot 249" when Lee is lying on the couch and the TV is on, it is playing Dawn of the Dead. Later on in the film, in "Cat from Hell," Halston is shown watching the Vampire classic, Martin, directed by Romero. (00:18:30 - 00:52:30)
Question: At the beginning of Lover's Vow, Preston's art is not selling. Why is it that after Carola helps him, his art suddenly becomes a success? Is she controlling the people in charge of the art business?
