The Sopranos (1999)
Revealing mistake: When Tony buys the orange juice off the street vendor (just before he is attacked by the hitmen) you can see the magazines on the vendor's stand being blown around by the "heavy winds" that are present throughout the episode. However, if you look behind Tony, you can see the scenery is almost completely still. The "wind" is coming from just off camera. (00:27:17)

Repo Man (1984)
Revealing mistake: Throughout the film, Agent Rogersz is supposed to have a metal hand however there are many times when you can tell it is just a steel-coloured glove as her fingers move like real human fingers when they should be stiff. The films producers have stated that they could not find a convincing prop in time for shooting.

The Sopranos (1999)
Revealing mistake: When Tony collapses in his back garden, and the barbecue grill explodes, some coals (supposedly thrown into the air by the explosion) land next to Tony's body. Watch this moment closely however and you can see that the coals come into shot from left of the screen and not above from the air as they should. Obviously thrown in by a nearby crew member, just off-screen. (00:19:48)

I Dream of Jeannie Cusamano - S1-E13
Revealing mistake: When Artie visits Livia at the hospital there is a close-up of the newspaper that Livia is reading and it is obviously fake. Some of the articles look like they have been pasted into it and there are white strips of paper covering up headlines or replacing them with new ones. (00:16:50)

A Fistful of Dollars (1964)
Revealing mistake: After Joe (Clint Eastwood) shoots dead the five men in the "small house" there is a close-up shot of one of the dead men lying across the table and his eyes are still open. Joe then pushes him off the table and as his body falls the dead man closes his eyes. (01:02:38)

A Fistful of Dollars (1964)
Revealing mistake: When Ramón and his men massacre a detachment of Mexican soldiers by ambushing them with a Gatling gun, it's easy to tell that the soldiers are just pretending to be hit by bullets. There isn't a single bullet hole or drop of blood on any of the soldiers also in the wide shots not one horse is hit in the crossfire nor has the carriage been damaged by gunfire. (00:25:43)

Aguirre, The Wrath of God (1972)
Revealing mistake: In the opening scene, when the soldiers and slaves march down the mountain, as the carriage containing Aguirre's daughter passes by the camera, one of the soldier extras just behind the carriage looks directly at the camera. (00:03:38)

A Fistful of Dollars (1964)
Revealing mistake: When Clint Eastwood ambushes the two guards by crushing them with a large barrel you can see two extended rails have been added to either side of the ramp, presumably to help with the stunt. (01:11:20)

A Fistful of Dollars (1964)
Revealing mistake: During the prisoner exchange scene, when Marisol is told to move forward on her horse, if you look at the building behind her you can see it's a partially built set. Through the buildings window you can see the desert. (00:53:05)

Aguirre, The Wrath of God (1972)
Revealing mistake: At one point when the soldiers are walking through the jungle, one of them steps into a trap and is pulled up into the trees to be killed by Indians. However, if you watch this scene carefully, when the soldier (who steps into the trap) walks into frame you can see a wire already attached to his foot leading up into the trees. He doesn't step into a trap. (00:22:26)

Hawk the Slayer (1980)
Revealing mistake: During the showdown between Hawk and Voltan, Hawk frees Gort by cutting his ties, Gort then grabs his hammer and whacks the guard with it and punches another guard. If you watch the pillars you can see them wobble slightly when the guards' bodies make contact with them. (01:26:33)

Insomnia (2002)
Revealing mistake: When Dormer fails to pursue Finch during the log chase scene, he climbs out of the water by a ladder. If you look at Dormer's back as he gets out of the water onto the dock you can see an outline of the life jacket Pacino wore to film the scene. You can see the outline again when he turns around and walks up the walkway. (01:00:49 - 01:01:11)
13th Oct 2020
Hawk the Slayer (1980)
Revealing mistake: At the end when Hawk fatally wounds Voltan there is a slow motion shot of Voltan rolling around in pain on the floor and his helmet falls off, revealing his whole face. You can see he is not wearing his burn make-up here. (01:28:16)

Hawk the Slayer (1980)
Revealing mistake: When Hawk is enchanting his fathers sword he holds the "mind stone" in the palm of his hand and you can see a wire attached to each side of the stone. A few seconds later and, of course, it "magically" lifts from his hand. (00:03:14)

Sleepaway Camp 2: Unhappy Campers (1988)

The Demon Headmaster (1996)
Revealing mistake: Throughout Series 2 Eve's reptilian hand is a glove made out of rubber and you can tell whenever she bends her wrist and the "skin" twists and wrinkles. An obvious example of this is in Episode 6 when she has finished going through "Accelerated Learning" and removes the listening device, bending her wrist and the glove in the process.
