Continuity mistake: When Jack has his temperature taken near the start of the film, the thermometer in his mouth goes from right-side up to upside down, then back to right-side up between cuts.

Continuity mistake: When Pinhead raises his blade to kill Joey, it's in his left hand. Suddenly, he's transported to the room with Elliot Spencer, and it's in his right hand in the next shot.

Continuity mistake: When Joey drives up to The Boiler Room to find Doc, it alternates between not raining and downpouring, depending on the shot. (Ex. In the shots inside the car looking out, it's not raining. In the exterior shots of the car, it is.)

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: When Pinhead appears in the nightclub, there's a dramatic shot revealing him, and if you look, there's only one or two people to the left of the stairs. The scene then cuts away for about a second and a half, and when it cuts back, suddenly there's a whole crowd to the left of the stairs. Far too many to appear in such a short period of time.

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: When Joey has the dream where she finds the radio in her closet, there are a few quick close-ups of her hand turning the radio dial. These close-ups are done with a hand double because you can see that the hand turning the dial has a clubbed thumb (sometimes known as a "short thumb" or "toe thumb"), whereas in other shots, she has a normal thumb.

Continuity mistake: When Terri goes back to JP, when he's talking about "getting this out of the way", Terri's hands go from down by her sides to nervously up by her mouth between cuts. Yes, her back is to the camera in the first shot, but you'd absolutely see her arms move, and they don't.

Continuity mistake: When Terri goes back to JP and they're talking about the girl who "helped" him with the Pillar, when JP says, "You know what I mean, right?", Terri goes from facing him to facing away between cuts.

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: Right after Sandy's skin is ripped off, there's a shot of the camera moving towards her face as she screams. (Right before Pinhead yells.) When this happens, you can see the chain around her left shoulder fall off right before the shot cuts. It's back on her shoulder in the next shot. It happens quickly, but it's super noticeable if you pay attention.

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: When the statue comes alive and kills Sandy, as she's lifted from the ground, the statue's mouth is suddenly open, but it's closed in the shots before and the shot after.

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: When JP sits down next to Sandy and says, "Welcome!", his cigarette goes from in to out of his mouth between cuts.

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: When Joey and Terri arrive at the Pyramid Gallery, after the knock, Terri's hand goes from her side to pressed against the door between cuts. Her cigarette also goes from her mouth to in her right hand in the same cut.

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: When JP gets his hand bitten by the rat, after he throws it away from him, there's a close-up of his hand covered in blood. In every shot before and after, there's little to no visible blood on his hand.

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: When Joey and Terri are talking and the puzzle-box in the statue gets brought up, in the reflection on the window, you can see Joey begin rubbing her neck with her right hand. When it cuts to the opposite angle, her hand is no longer up by her neck.

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: When Joey gives Terri her cigarettes, when Terri asks, "You gonna have one?", her hands go from on to off the ashtray between cuts.

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: When Terri and Joey are talking about how Terri doesn't dream, throughout the scene she's carrying a cup of coffee. But at a certain point in the scene, her coffee cup just completely vanishes. There's no point where she sets it down. It's just there... and then it isn't. It's entirely possible she set it down in a deleted shot, but the way the scene is edited, it's all portrayed as one fluid conversation with no pauses, so it's a mistake.

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: When Terri is talking about how she doesn't dream, she walks around Joey's living room. The scene cuts to a different angle, and she flops down into the chair. However, before the cut, she wasn't close enough to the chair to sit down. Additionally, Joey's hands change positions between cuts.

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: When Terri goes to Joey's apartment and talks about how she doesn't have dreams, as she stands up, her hands go from far apart to close together between cuts.

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: When Joey meets JP, he offers her a rose, but when Joey walks away, it's no longer in his hand as it was in the previous two shots.

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: When the guy slams his hand on the bus window, startling Joey, in the first shot, only his right hand is on the window. In the next shot, he's hitting the window with both hands. He then takes his hands off the window and starts lowering them, but in the next shot, his right hand is back on the bus.

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: When Joey runs towards the operating room and Terri leaves the hospital, in the first shot, Terri begins to open the door and walk out in the background. The camera cuts, and we see her do the exact same thing a second time.
