Revealing mistake: The father's fiancée is killed by a machete to the neck. She is quite obviously dead. But when Gretel picks up her cross necklace, you can see her eyes closed, but fluttering. (01:19:10)
Revealing mistake: H&G trap Lilith in the oven and turn it up, Lilith catches on fire. You can see her skin and face begin burning and melt off. Her clothes combust. But her hair is perfectly fine up till the point when she explodes. Yet hair is very flammable. (01:24:00)
Visible crew/equipment: As Hansel and Gretel are getting into Lilith's Volkswagen, the camera is panning around the vehicle. As it does, you can see the legs of a crew member walking around behind it by the tree. (01:12:35)
Revealing mistake: After the sheriff hits the other guy with his car and the arrow is pushed through him, the Sheriff shakes him after he dies. The part of the arrow sticking up out of his chest wobbles around very loosely. (01:10:50)
Continuity mistake: While searching through the woods, H&G's dad find the bear trap that snared Hansel a couple nights before. First thing wrong is that when he finds it, the blood is still wet and deep red, but it has been at least a day and a half that blood was sitting there. The more obvious mistake is that it is covered in Hansel's blood, but when his dad picks it up, it has very little blood on it at all. (01:06:20)
Continuity mistake: After Hansel storms off into the woods, Gretel and their father are talking. Her dad reaches out and rubs her shoulder and then moves his hand to her bangs and begins brushing his fingers through her hair. It cuts to behind him and suddenly his hand is down and her hair normal. It cuts back and forth between close ups of them each a few times, and then the angle is to the side again and suddenly his hand is in her hair again before they hug. (00:09:35)
