Audio problem: When Elise is talking to Specs and Tucker about her childhood home after Ted Garza calls her, when she says the line "because I could never forget the look on my mother's face when she died!", her mouth movements don't match the audio in the slightest.

Audio problem: When Elise sends Specs and Imogen to get the bible from upstairs, Tucker protests, saying "he gets bible camp with the most beautiful girl on earth...", but his mouth movements don't quite match the words "he gets bible camp", revealing the line was re-recorded in post. (The rest of the line matches, but not those four words).

Insidious: The Last Key (2018)
Audio problem: At the start of the second night of the investigation at Ted's house, Elise says "Why did you say 'help her'? Help who?" While the camera is focused on Tucker with the microphone, you can see Elise's face at the bottom of the frame and her mouth is not moving at all.

Insidious: The Last Key (2018)
Audio problem: In the opening scene, when Christian asks young Elise "How did you know that?!" after the talks about the man who was just executed, his mouth isn't moving. (True, he's out of focus in the background, but he's not speaking).

Out Of Mind, Out Of Sight - S1-E11
Audio problem: When the invisible girl writes "Listen" on the chalkboard, the chalk sound effects don't match the writing for the last few strokes. (They're about a half-second too "early.").

Out Of Mind, Out Of Sight - S1-E11
Audio problem: When Cordy and Buffy are talking and Cordy says "Well it beats being alone all by yourself, " pay attention. It's clear that part of the line was dubbed in, as there is a very hard cut between the words "Well" and "It."

Out Of Mind, Out Of Sight - S1-E11
Audio problem: When Cordelia wins May Queen, the clapping sound effect doesn't match the students clapping in the slightest. It's far too loud considering it's a small group outside, and continues on for about two seconds after the students clapping.

Nightmares - S1-E10
Audio problem: When the Scooby gang goes back to the hospital to try to wake up Billy, they talk to the doctor, who mutters "My hands." However, his words don't match his lip movements in the slightest. He seems to be muttering something else entirely.

The Crow (1994)
Audio problem: When Shelly is being wheeled away in the beginning, she makes a strained gasping sound right before they put the oxygen mask back on her. But her gasp doesn't match her mouth movements. In fact, it's impossible to make the sound she made with the mouth movements she made. Try it yourself. It almost looks like she's saying "F**k" or something similar, and they just dubbed it over with a gasp. Additionally, the gasp is far too loud and clear given how softly she's speaking. Bad looping.

Hellraiser (2022)
Audio problem: When Trevor is explaining to Riley how he wants to rob the storage unit, at one point there's an over-the-shoulder shot where he says "Totally anonymous... nobody's ever seen any one in there... but, like the shit..." If you look closely, you can tell Trevor is saying something completely different. True, his mouth isn't on-screen the whole time, but his jaw movements and his mouth movements don't match the words at all when they are visible, revealing they altered the dialogue in post.

Hellraiser (1987)
Audio problem: When Chatterer appears and shoves Frank back in the attic, we get a closeup of his teeth chattering, but when it cuts to a wideshot, he's no longer doing it. You could argue that he just stopped as the camera cut (a little flimsy, but arguably a valid correction), but the real issue? They continue to play the "chattering" sound effect for about a second after he stops even though his teeth are no longer moving. They try to mask it by fading it out quickly... but it makes the moment feel wonky.

Hellraiser (1987)
Audio problem: When Steve and the nurse discover Kirsty has fled the hospital, their lines don't quite match their lip movements when they are on-screen. Especially when Steve says "Maybe she's gone back to..." (Several characters were redubbed with American accents in post, which may explain the discrepancy). (01:10:04)

Hellraiser (1987)
Audio problem: When Julia and Frank are talking after Kirsty first encounters the cenobites, if you look closely, Frank's words don't quite match his lip movements a few times. It's especially noticeable when he snaps out "What I care about is a new skin!," which doesn't match in the slightest. (01:09:15)
6th Oct 2022
Hellraiser (1987)
Audio problem: When Steve says "What?" to Kirsty at the pet-store, it's pretty painfully obvious that the line was dubbed in during post. The audio is much more loudly spoken than he appears to be speaking. (Several characters were redubbed with American accents in post. Presumably this is the reason for the inconsistency). (00:45:33)
