Now and Then mistake picture

Continuity mistake: When Sam's dad leaves, there is a grey Volkswagen Beetle parked on the street behind him. Yet in the previous shot it was parked on a driveway, not the street. (00:20:10)

Hamster

Revealing mistake: It is obvious that when Sam is in her bed reading her book with a torch, that a set light is being shone at her face and that the glow doesn't come from the torch, because she turns the torch away from her and puts it on the bed, but a soft glow of light remains on her face for some seconds. (00:20:20)

Hamster

Continuity mistake: After Sam's dad leaves, Sam gets out of bed, grabs her poncho and shoes and puts a bag over her shoulder. She puts her poncho and shoes out through the curtains twice, and as she climbs through and jumps out of the window, the bag has vanished from her shoulder. (00:21:35)

Hamster

Continuity mistake: When they do their first seance, a storm starts and rain is pouring, so the girls run away, but Sam turns back to look, and the large white candle she holds switches hands between shots, and the cloths she's holding change position. (00:24:20)

Hamster

Continuity mistake: When Sam rings the bell to wake up Roberta, as Roberta walks to the window to ring the bell back, we see a silver torch on the desk lying on its side. Then when Roberta picks it up it's standing upright. (00:26:20)

Hamster

Teeny: Chrissy, truth or dare?
Chrissy: Truth.
Teeny: Have you ever been french kissed?
Chrissy: Are you kidding? I don't want to get pregnant!
Roberta: You can't get pregnant from french-kissing!
Chrissy: I know that, beetle-brain, but it's common knowledge that if you tongue-kiss a boy, he automatically thinks you'll do the deed with him. They can't help it. They're driven. It's the male curse.
