Continuity mistake: When Tara, Sam and Ritchie enter the party at the end of the film, we see some people cheering for Tara's entrance. It then cuts to a wide shot, and all of the cheering extras/people are suddenly standing in slightly different places and in different configurations. (Likely they were told to wander around during the shots and just happened to end up in different places during different takes.)

Continuity mistake: When Chad is being chased by Ghostface, at one point he trips and falls next to some hay/leaves, then gets back up. As he is running, the amount of hay/leaves on him increases between cuts.

Continuity mistake: When Chad and Mindy get into a little argument about Chad going to look for Liv, when Minday says "Because she's probably already dead," she goes from looking forward to looking at Chad between cuts. Additionally, between cuts, she's also holding her beer bottle a bit differently, and the way the bag of chips next to her is open is slightly different.

Continuity mistake: When Ghostface kills Dewey and kicks him over to the ground, it cuts to Ghostface, then back to Dewey, and suddenly Dewey's body is in a slightly different position, for example, his hands go from pointed down to pointed out, and he has moved about 1-2' closer to Ghostface. (You can use the blood puddle for reference.) A few moments later, he's back in the original position and distance. The amount of blood around his head on the floor also changes repeatedly between shots as he's lying dead.

Continuity mistake: After Dewey shoots Ghostface through the cabinet, when he walks back over, Ghostface is in a completely different position and the cabinet is broken differently than before. True, Ghostface wasn't dead. But we didn't hear any movement, and it would have been impossible for so much change to have happened without it being audible.

Continuity mistake: When Dewey shoots at Ghostface after the elevator door opens, Tara immediately starts to curl into a fetal position for protection, but then it cuts, and she's no longer in that position.

Continuity mistake: When Ghostface is talking to Sam on the phone at the hospital, there's a prominent closeup of his hand holding the knife, and it's pointed right towards the wall. The camera cuts, and suddenly he's holding it pointed left towards himself. This mistake happens a second time a moment later.

Continuity mistake: When Ghostface tells Sam, "maybe you're too weak for this franchise," on the phone at the hospital, the way Tara is crawling away from him changes instantly between cuts. (She's suddenly a bit closer to the floor and on top of her hands that were still in front of her before the cut.)

Scream (2022)
Continuity mistake: When Tara is in the hospital and is about to (accidentally) hit Ritchie with the phone, the way she's holding the phone changes between cuts. In some shots, she's holding it right by her head; in others, she's holding it above her head.

Continuity mistake: When Gale tells Dewey she came because she was worried about him, he turns his head to his right. It then cuts and suddenly he's looking forward at Gale again.

Scream (2022)
Continuity mistake: In the final two shots, we see Judy's face. The amount of blood on it greatly increases between shots. True, she was off-frame for about two seconds, but she wasn't breathing or moving enough to suddenly make so much more blood appear on her face.

Continuity mistake: When Judy Hicks is being stabbed to death, in the shots facing up at Ghostface, you can tell she has her head tilted up off the ground. But in the shots facing her, her head is always on the ground.

Scream (2022)
Continuity mistake: When Wes accidentally scares his mum, in the first shot, he has a pair of white wireless earbuds in his ears. But then, the camera cuts and they're instantly in his hands. Then, the camera cuts again and his hands are suddenly about 6" higher in the air.

Continuity mistake: When Sam is driving away from the Meeks' house and has a vision of her father talking to her in her car, pay attention to the background outside the car windows. The backgrounds of the shots facing forward down the street and the side-shot facing Sam do not match in the slightest. She's driving by completely different houses and trees as it cuts back and forth between the two angles.

Continuity mistake: When the group is at the Meeks' house and Chad says, "Ok mom, we're good," Liv has her hand on his shoulder for two shots before she suddenly has her elbow on his shoulder.

Scream (2022)
Continuity mistake: When Dewey joins Sam and Ritchie at the Meeks house, after Ritchie says "Just because that guy showered doesn't mean he should have a gun," he goes from facing sideways at Sam to forward at Dewey between cuts.

Scream (2022)
Continuity mistake: When Dewey is about to start texting Gale, the way he's holding his phone changes instantly when it cuts from the wide shot to the close-up of his phone.

Scream (2022)
Continuity mistake: When Dewey calls Sidney, and she's pleasantly surprised to hear from him, she sort-of wedges her phone between her cheek and shoulder so she can check her fit-bit. Before the shot cuts, her left hand is still on the phone, but instantly in the next shot, she's holding it in front of herself to check her fit-bit.
