Revealing mistake: When a couple of the inmates are watching the assistant warden drag Fa out of his cell by sticking his hook hand into his mouth, it is apparent that the man being dragged by the hook hand is a fake motionless prop dummy and not an actual person. (01:18:36)

Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky (1991)
Continuity mistake: When Ricky is being tortured by the warden, after the warden removes the tape covering his mouth, Ricky spits out some blood as many of the razors inside his mouth. The razors that were shown sticking out of his cheeks are not shown moving, but after it cuts to the warden with some of the razors stuck to his face, the shot cuts back to Ricky and the razors in his cheeks are no longer there. Even the ones that weren't shown being spat out. (01:16:40)

Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky (1991)
Continuity mistake: Wong Chun stuffs a load of razors in Ricky's mouth and begins hitting him. After the warden asks Ricky a question and Wong Chun stops hitting him for a moment, we can see that Ricky's left cheek looks fine (aside from the blood running down his head). In the next shot, the razors are suddenly sticking out of his cheeks that were not there in the previous shot. (01:16:27)

Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky (1991)
Continuity mistake: When Ricky's girlfriend jumps off the roof, her body is positioned so that her legs are facing towards the building, but when she falls to the ground in the next shot, her body is suddenly facing the opposite direction, as we can see her legs are facing away from the building. (01:11:27)

Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky (1991)
Other mistake: When Ricky's girlfriend lands on the ground after jumping off the roof, she is shown landing on her front, with her face and body shown hitting the ground. When Ricky is shown looking at her body at the morgue, her face has virtually no signs of injury what so ever. (01:11:29)

Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky (1991)
Continuity mistake: When Ricky punches the drug lord in the side of the head, whilst the drug lord begins to fall over after Ricky punches him, there are no visible injuries shown on his head. When the drug lord is shown on the ground in the next shot, there is a huge wound and lots of blood on the side of his head that would have been visible in the previous shot. (01:12:25)

Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky (1991)
Revealing mistake: When Ricky's girlfriend commits suicide by jumping off the roof of a drug dealer's apartment building, the body that is shown falling to the ground is a dummy and not a human body. (01:11:28)
23rd Sep 2020
Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky (1991)
Stupidity: When Ricky's girlfriend awakens inside the drug dealer's apartment, she runs off as soon as she realises what danger she is in. She runs through the apartment building, up the stairs to the roof and then commits suicide by jumping off the roof. Apparently, when she was running up the stairs, she never considered trying to escape the building or see if there was anyway of getting downstairs. (01:11:15)

Audio problem: When Wong Chun bursts out of the manhole cover to kick the dog into two pieces, he screams aloud, but his mouth doesn't move. (01:09:15)
23rd Sep 2020
Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky (1991)
Audio problem: Just after the warden tells the inmates if Ricky can stay buried alive for seven days, he'll consider him a free man, his son runs up to the hole Ricky is in. He is heard laughing whilst running up to the hole, but his chest and stomach aren't shown moving along with the laughing, implying the laughs were dubbed in afterwards. (01:07:50)

Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky (1991)
Other mistake: Just after Tarzan has been crushed and killed by the ceiling being lowered to the ground, Ricky finds a photo of Tarzan and his mother that slipped out of the jail cell, just in front of the entrance beforehand. There is no way this picture could have slipped out of the cell. He was standing nowhere near the entrance to the cell whilst he was being crushed and anytime he was shown standing near the entrance whilst he was fighting with Ricky, so nothing could have happened for the photo to unintentionally slip out of his pocket and out of the cell. (01:05:05)

Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky (1991)
Other mistake: When the ceiling in the jail cell has lowered all the way to the ground, Tarzan is crushed by it and killed. Despite Tarzan's body being crushed by the ceiling, the ceiling touches the ground incredibly smoothly. The lowering of the ceiling is in no way delayed or slowed down by Tarzan's body being in the way, and the sound of the ceiling touching the ground is in no way muffled or affected by Tarzan's body being crushed. (01:04:58)

Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky (1991)
Stupidity: Just after Ricky has beaten up Tarzan, the warden has the ceiling of the cell Ricky is trapped in lowered in an attempt to crush him. However, earlier in the scene, Tarzan made a huge hole in the wall of the cell to get into it. The hole in the wall is even visible in the background when the ceiling begins to lower. Ricky could have simply run out of the hole in the wall to get out, rather than try to hold the ceiling up with his bare hands. (01:02:48)

Revealing mistake: When Ricky punches Tarzan's jaw, in the shot where Ricky's fist goes through the bottom of Tarzan's jaw and up through his mouth, Tarzan has been replaced with a dummy. (01:02:20)
23rd Sep 2020
Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky (1991)
Continuity mistake: When Ricky retaliates after Tarzan tries to squeeze his head through the jail cell bars, there is some blood shown on his face. A couple seconds later, just after he punches Tarzan's arm, there is drastically much more blood on his face. (01:02:10)

Visible crew/equipment: When the warden's son starts hugging his father's leg after tripping up on the red carpet, the camera pans upwards towards the warden, and he begins to turn his head. When he does this, white reflector screens can be seen reflected in his glasses. (00:57:15)
23rd Sep 2020
Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky (1991)
Continuity mistake: When the warden's son begins walking down the red carpet and trips up, the shadows of the prison guards can be seen cast on the carpet. When the assistant warden goes to help him up a few seconds later, the shadows of the guards have disappeared from the carpet. (00:56:58)
23rd Sep 2020
Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky (1991)
Other mistake: Just after the warden gets out of the car, greets the assistant warden and walks away, the camera stays on the assistant warden for a few seconds with no-one else visible in the shot. He then feels a pain in his foot. A close-up shot of his foot is then shown where it is revealed the warden's son is standing right next to him and has stood on his foot. The warden's son should have been visible in the previous shot when he first stepped on the assistant warden's foot as several feet are shown on both sides of the assistant warden, but was not visible at all. (00:56:29)

Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky (1991)
Continuity mistake: When the warden's car pulls over at the prison, the car stops where the back right hand side tyre is positioned a foot or two away from the red carpet. In a close-up shot of the warden getting out, the car is suddenly much closer to the red carpet. (00:56:17)
23rd Sep 2020
Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky (1991)
Continuity mistake: When Ricky stands back up to start fighting with Wong Chun again, a slash wound can be seen on his cheek, positioned beneath his nose. When White God appears to join the fight seconds later, the slash wound on his cheek has now moved up his face to be level with his nose. (00:51:40 - 00:52:13)
