Nightmares - S1-E10

Continuity mistake: When Buffy goes to take her history test near the beginning of the episode and is talking to Cordelia outside the door about how she doesn't think she can pass, pay attention. As it cuts back and forth from Buffy to Cordelia, you see the same student (an African American girl with a black jacket, white shirt and earrings) enter the history classroom twice.

Nightmares - S1-E10

Continuity mistake: At the beginning, when Joyce drops off Buffy at school, pay attention to the car windows. They open and close repeatedly throughout the scene depending on the angle. (This seems to be for the benefit of the scene depending on the camera angle. They seem to lower the window the camera is shooting through while closing the one on the opposite side, and it switches back and forth. Still, it's a mistake).

Nightmares - S1-E10

Continuity mistake: At the beginning, when Joyce drops off Buffy at school, Joyce lets go of the steering wheel and lowers her arms. It then cuts to the opposite angle and Joyce is suddenly holding the steering wheel again.

Nightmares - S1-E10

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the episode, when we first see Cordelia, she's looking in a hand-mirror and makes a snotty remark to another student. Instantly between the second and third shots she goes from holding the mirror with hand to both hands.

Nightmares - S1-E10

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of the episode when Buffy and Willow stop at Buffy's locker, in the first shot, Willow has her backpack strap on her shoulder and takes it off. It then cuts to another angle and Willow's backpack strap is back on her shoulder, and she takes it off a second time.

Nightmares - S1-E10

Continuity mistake: In the beginning dream sequence, when Buffy is surprised by the Master and backs up into the wall, watch her two pigtails. As the scene cuts back and forth between Buffy and the Master, her pigtails move from behind her shoulders to in front of her shoulders and back several times. First they're both behind her shoulders, then only one is behind, then both are in front, then one moves back behind again, etc. Obviously multiple different takes were cut together in editing.

Chucky (2021)

Chucky Actually - S2-E8

Continuity mistake: When the living-doll version of Glen/Glenda/GG is revealed, after they thank Tiffany for giving them a makeover, the way they are holding the mirror changes instantly between cuts. This then continues throughout the rest of the scene, with them holding the mirror in a different way between shots probably a dozen times.

Barbarian (2022)

Continuity mistake: When Tess opens the lockbox at the beginning and realises the key is missing, she goes from having her left hand on the box to off it instantly between cuts when she finally gets it open.

Barbarian (2022)

Continuity mistake: The first time Tess tries to open the lockbox with the key inside when she gets to the house, the way she is touching/holding it changes between cuts. Specifically, she goes from only having one hand on it to both hands.

Spawn (1997)

Continuity mistake: After the birthday party, when Clown and Spawn are in the alley, Al gets up and walks away and Clown follows. You can see two extras in the background walking away from them. When it cuts to the next shot (an extreme wide shot), suddenly the extras are much, much further back than they just were. (You can use the dilapidated car in the background for reference... in the first shot they are in front of it, but in the next, they're behind it).

Spawn (1997)

Continuity mistake: When Clown farts in the alley and pulls out his underwear, his hand goes from his side to behind him instantly between cuts. (He starts to reach back in the first shot, but his hand is still at his side, and instantly in the next shot it's all the way behind him).

Spawn (1997)

Continuity mistake: When Clown and Al arrive at the graveyard, after Clown says "This is where old folks go after Florida, son!," watch Al. He goes from being right near the ground to almost totally sat up instantly between shots.

Spawn (1997)

Continuity mistake: When Al collapses in the alley and says "Feels like my skin is about to explode!", watch closely. In the first shot, he's about to flop down onto the right side of the stairway... but in the next shot, he collapses onto the left side.

Spawn (1997)

Continuity mistake: In the director's cut, when Clown squeezes the cream out of the donut in the alley and says "What does this remind you of?", suddenly the donut vanishes from his hand in the next shot. He didn't put it down... it just disappears between frames.

Spawn (1997)

Continuity mistake: After the birthday party, when Clown pulls off his clown outfit in the alley, he starts to throw it to his right side. However, two shots later, it's visible on the ground behind his left.

Spawn (1997)

Continuity mistake: After the birthday party, Clown puts down a drink and some snacks on a garbage can and rips off his clown outfit. When he puts the drink down, it falls over. However, just a few shots later, suddenly it's standing back up again. (He never picked it back up between the shots).

Pilot - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: In the very first shot, we can see there's a man with a dark coat, sunglasses, short hair and earbuds standing directly in front of the dean. When it cuts to the opposite angle, he's no longer there. When it cuts back to the first angle a few shots later, he's suddenly back.

Ginger Snaps (2000)

Continuity mistake: When Brigitte pries the photo of the werewolf out of her Polaroid camera, in the first shot, her hands are extremely pink/red. (I'm not sure if it's the lighting, or if it's meant to be blood from cleaning off her sister.) Regardless, the color is very obvious. When it cuts to a closeup of her hands holding the photo, suddenly, he skin is perfectly white and not pink. It cuts back to the first angle, and they are very pink/red again. Clearly the closeup shot was filmed at a different time.

Ginger Snaps (2000)

Continuity mistake: When Ginger and Brigitte are buying tampons, when Brigitte says "This one comes with a free calendar" she turns around to look at Ginger. The way she is holding the box of tampons and her laptop (I think that's a laptop?) changes instantly between cuts. Ginger also moves about a foot or two back between the same cut.

Ginger Snaps (2000)

Continuity mistake: When Jason is trying to get Ginger to smoke with him at the store, he leans in and says " nothing quite takes the edge off like a good toke!" His face is only about 4-5" from her face to her left. It then cuts to another angle, and we see he's longer that close to her in fact he's not even onscreen, meaning he moved back instantly at least a foot between cuts.
