Hercules in New York (1969)
Continuity mistake: When the bad guys chase the chariot, there are 5 of them in the car, 3 in front and 2 in the back. Suddenly, the bald man behind the driver is on the opposite side, and the guy he replaces has vanished, leaving 4 in the car. When the car arrives at Central Park, all of the 5 baddies are back in the car, but the actors are different: the chubby copilot with a hat is now a thin man wearing sunglasses, for example.
