TedStixon

Revealing mistake: When the cenobites appear to Kirsty, you can unfortunately see where Pinhead's makeup abruptly ends around his mouth, just behind his lips, as he speaks.

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: The blood smears on Kirsty's shirt change slightly between scenes from when Kirsty is in the attic to when she is walking outside later after fleeing. It's the same shirt and the same day, so it makes no sense why they'd be different.

TedStixon

Audio problem: When Kirsty first encounters Frank, he says "It's Frank! It's uncle Frank!" When he says "uncle Frank," the audio and his lip-movements don't quite match.

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: When Kirsty first sees Frank, he grabs the man he's killing and pushes him down to his waist-level. The camera cuts, and suddenly the man is back up and Frank pushes him down to his waist level a second time.

TedStixon

Visible crew/equipment: When Kirsty is going up the stairs at the house (right before she finds Frank), at one point, she rounds a corner and walks by camera in extreme closeup... and you can see her walk through the shadow of the camera. (The scene then cuts to an opposite angle, and there's nothing else that would have cast the shadow she walks through). (00:57:24)

TedStixon

Visible crew/equipment: As Frank is killing the last victim Julia brings him (the meek man), Kirsty slowly opens a door and slinks through. As she does, in the bottom left corner of the screen, you can see part of a shadow from either the camera or a cameraman. It's definitely a camera/cameraman shadow, since the shadow is wavering in a similar way to the camera's movement. (00:57:12)

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: After Larry storms away in confusion after Frank skins the rat, Julia's eyes close and her hand moves up to her chest between cuts.

TedStixon

Revealing mistake: When Frank skins the rat in front of Julia in a threatening manner, if you look close, you can see that the actor is simply running the knife through a pre-made cut in the dead-rat prop, and isn't actually skinning it. What really gives it away is that you can kind of see that the skin is already separated at the bottom and even briefly "bends" before the knife reaches it.

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: When Larry and Julia begin to kiss in their bedroom doorway during the storm, the way they're holding and touching each other changes a few times between cuts. (00:51:28)

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: After Julia sees the vision of Frank being tortured, she walks over to a window and faces it. The scene then cuts to a wideshot, and instantly Julia goes from facing forward, to facing sideways. (00:48:20)

TedStixon

Visible crew/equipment: When Julia sees the vision of Frank being tortured by the cenobites, at one point "Butterball" turns and looks at camera, and you can see a set-light reflected in his glasses for a brief moment.

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: When Frank grabs Julia's wrist/hand in the attic after she tells him to "Keep your voice down!," watch closely. The way he's gripping her wrist/hand changes a few times between cuts. Additionally, depending on the angel, her hand either is or isn't casting a shadow on her face. (00:43:36)

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: The shape of Frank's body changes a few times depending on the scene from when he is resurrected to when he absorbs his first "victim." In some shots, it's an extremely skinny body double when it's doing the weird crawling movements, while in other shots where it's the main actor, his body seems a bit "thicker" and "fuller." When it's the skinny body-double, the shape of Frank's head also changes slightly, and is a bit larger and rounder.

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: After Julia kills her first victim, the amount and pattern of the blood on her face changes once or twice over the remainder of the scene. (Most noticeably, it changes from before she drops the hammer, to after when she backs up against the door).

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: After Julia kills her first victim, she drops the hammer and backs away. As the shot cuts, suddenly, a large blood-stain appears on the victim's shirt between cuts. (It's on his shoulder).

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: When Kirsty leaves the bathroom and encounters Julia after Julia first meets Frank, the lighting on Julia noticeably changes between the wide and closeup shots of her. Her shadow on the wall also changes between the two angles.

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: After the dinner scene, Julia goes up to the attic and the shadow she casts on the door changes twice between cuts. We get a POV shot of her approaching the door, and right before it cuts, we see a teeny bit of shadow appear on the door (from Julia approaching it). It then cuts to a wideshot, and there's instantly a LOT more shadow on the door. Then a few seconds later, the shadow on the door changes again during the closeup of her turning the handle - there's suddenly much LESS shadow.

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: When Bill kisses Julia on the cheek as she's about to step away, he puts his hand on her arm, right under her shoulder. When it punches in to a medium shot from the wide, his hand is no longer there.

TedStixon

Continuity mistake: During the dinner scene, when Julia stands up to leave, as it cuts between her and wider shots of the table, the expression on her face and the direction she is facing subtly changes a few times between cuts.

TedStixon

Audio problem: When Kirsty is flirty with Steve at dinner and he says "So lay down," the audio doesn't QUITE match his lip movements. (Several characters were redubbed with American accents in post. Presumably this is the reason for the inconsistency).
