Revealing mistake: When the CD's embedded into the DJ's head, the second CD we see cut into his skin has fishing line coming off it.

Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth (1992)
Revealing mistake: During the nightclub massacre, there's a brief shot of a woman having the skin around her eye pulled off. You can tell that she just had some fake skin over her face and had her face painted with a "blood" texture beneath. The effect is incredibly cheap and unconvincing.

Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth (1992)
Continuity mistake: When the cop cars explode, suddenly the cops vanish between cuts. Obviously, they were meant to be killed in the explosion, but they just aren't there in the wide shots of the actual explosion.

Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth (1992)
Audio problem: When the two cop cars stop during the climax, virtually none of the female cops' dialogue matches her mouth movements. And even when it does, the overdub is a woman yelling much louder than the actress appears to be.

Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth (1992)
Continuity mistake: Joey runs up to the female cop. It then cuts to her partner getting out of his car, and you can see Joey run up to the female cop a second time in the background.

Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth (1992)
Other mistake: When Joey is fleeing down the city streets, two cop cars drive up. Instantly, between cuts, the cops appear outside their cars as Joey runs up to them. They don't get out... they're just suddenly outside of the cars between cuts, and the movie tries to cover it by adding in a car door opening/closing sound.

Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth (1992)
Revealing mistake: When the former bartender-turned-Cenobite blows a hole through the brick wall and comes out, you can see the "brick wall" bend like foam or rubber as he comes through, revealing it's a fake prop wall.

Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth (1992)
Revealing mistake: When Joey is running around the streets with the box, the former bartender Cenobite blows a hole through the wall and comes out. There's a brief shot of Joey cowering with her back to him, and you can plainly see one of the supposed "bricks" from the wall literally smack her on the side of the head and harmlessly bounce off, revealing it's a lightweight foam replica. The scene tries to cover by adding in her grunting "Ugh!", but if it was a real brick, it would have knocked her right out.

Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth (1992)
Audio problem: When Joey sees Doc as a Cenobite and flees as he blows up the storefront, she bumps into a random guy who is seemingly somehow missed the explosion that happened about 20 feet in front of him. Not only is it ludicrous he isn't fleeing, but his dialogue is also painfully obviously overdubbed.

Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth (1992)
Continuity mistake: When Pinhead pushes the second nail/worm into his hand, the camera cuts to an extreme close-up. In between shots, suddenly there's more blood on his hand.

Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth (1992)
Revealing mistake: When Pinhead pulls the pins (with attached worms) out of his head, there are two brief flubs. In the first close-up, you can see several of the pins on his head "wobble" unnaturally, revealing that it's likely some sort of rubber prop head. When he pulls the second pin out, the camera is in almost the exact same position, and he appears to pull the second pin out of the exact same spot, so it's likely just two different takes of the exact same effect.

Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth (1992)
Revealing mistake: When Pinhead is walking into the church, the stained-glass windows start to explode. In several of the close-up shots, you can see the supposedly stone walls of the church "wobble" as the windows explode, revealing they're just painted set walls.

Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth (1992)
Revealing mistake: When Joey sees the man's head explode in the hospital at the beginning of the film, pay attention. You can tell that the head was sculpted out of rigid foam (likely something similar to Styrofoam), painted, filled with fake blood, and then blown up. What gives it away is that you can see some of the unpainted white foam on some of the "chunks" of his head.

Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth (1992)
Visible crew/equipment: When Terri is attacked by JP, after she knocks him, there's a shot of her scurrying towards the door. At the bottom left of the screen, you can see a boom mic quite prominently for almost two full seconds. (Seen in the 16:9 Blu-Ray from Arrow Video. Some versions of the film appear to be somewhat cropped, so it may not be visible in all versions.)

The People's Joker (2022)
Trivia: The film was inspired by director/co-writer/star Vera Drew being commissioned to create a fan edit of the 2019 film "Joker." While working on the fan-edit, she began to think about her own life and ended up coming up with the idea of re-contextualizing "Batman" characters in order to tell a semi auto-biographical story about what she refers to as the "Holy Trinity" - gender, comedy, and mommy issues.

The People's Joker (2022)
Trivia: Was pulled from TIFF after a single showing because director/co-writer/star Vera Drew got a warning letter from an "unnamed" massive media conglomerate. (Widely believed to be Warner Bros./Discovery.) Eventually the movie was able to be released legally because, as a parody, its content falls squarely under fair-use laws.

Child's Play 3 (1991)
Trivia: Chucky's body in this film is the longest one he's inhabited. His body from this film gets stitched back together and is the same body he uses in "Bride of Chucky." "Seed of Chucky" mentions that it's the same body from "Bride." "Curse of Chucky" reveals that he's still using the same body, albeit with "prosthetics" covering his scars. And the doll's head is also seen still alive in "Cult of Chucky." The TV show implies it has finally been destroyed... 30 years after "Child's Play 3" came out.

Curse of Chucky (2013)
Trivia: Nica's night-robe was inspired by the lead character in the movie The Fury, which is one of director Don Mancini's favourite films.
