Visible crew/equipment: When Beetlejuice is first introduced, right before we see him, the camera rotates around the model and the sign above the grave lights up. Right before the sign lights up, you can ever-so-subtly see a part of the camera's shadow move over the model. It's subtle and easy to miss, but once you see it, it's pretty obvious.

Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth (1992)
Visible crew/equipment: When JP notices the box has been taken out of the statue and hears a noise coming from inside, there's a dramatic shot where the camera swoops from one side of the statue to the other, and you can see the shadow of the cameraman pass over the statue, plain as day. (00:18:34)

Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth (1992)
Visible crew/equipment: After the clubgoer's head explodes, we see Joey riding in a bus. In the first shot, as the camera moves towards Joey, towards the end of the shot, you can just barely see the reflection of a crew member in the window. He appears to be pulling or steadying the camera rig (probably a dolly camera rig or something similar).

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.)

Chucky (2021)
Visible crew/equipment: When Glenda electrocutes the security guard and his face bursts into flames, you can see where a flammable substance has been smeared on the prop head. It's sort-of whiteish, and the flames immediately ignite on it.

Chucky (2021)
Visible crew/equipment: When Father Bryce is locking the students in their rooms near the beginning, when he locks Trevor's friend's door, there's a close-up of the door handle. If you look closely, you can see the reflection of the camera with a black covering draped over it.

Chucky (2021)
Visible crew/equipment: When Lexy is scared in the classroom and stands up, there's a closeup of her eyes, and you can see a very clear reflection of a lighting bounce-card in her eyes.

Cult of Chucky (2017)
Visible crew/equipment: When Chucky finds Nica with her wrist slit, you can see a light reflected in Chucky's eyes, even though the room is dark. Obviously, a set light.
12th Feb 2024
Cult of Chucky (2017)
Visible crew/equipment: When the camera cuts to Andy's close-up as he's punching in his safe code, you can see a set light reflected in his eye. There's nothing in the scene in front of him that could be creating such a reflection.

Cult of Chucky (2017)
Visible crew/equipment: When Andy leans against his gun cabinet in the opening scene, you can see a bounce-card reflected in the glass.

Curse of Chucky (2013)
Visible crew/equipment: When Nica is pushed through the railing by Chucky, you get a quick but clear look at the stunt double's face, who looks nothing like actress Fiona Dourif. Her arms noticeably also get more toned when this happens. Finally, for a second, you can see her moving her one leg, which shouldn't happen since Nica is supposed to be paralyzed.

Curse of Chucky (2013)
Visible crew/equipment: When Chucky kicks over the bucket to electrocute Jill, you can just barely see something small and white sticking out from underneath the bucket, which moves when the bucket tips over. It appears to be part of the mechanism that actually "kicks" it over.
6th Feb 2024
Curse of Chucky (2013)
Visible crew/equipment: When Nica rounds the corner to answer the door in the opening scene, as she gets close to the door, you can see the shadow of the cameraman on her back for a moment. (It's right after she says "Well, I'm used to that.") You can also VERY faintly see it on the door a few seconds later.

Seed of Chucky (2004)
Visible crew/equipment: When Joan shows up to Jennifer's house and Chucky says, "It's that nosy bitch, Joan," for a brief instant, you can see what appears to be a puppeteer's hand behind Chucky's right shoulder. It's only onscreen for about 1 second, but if you know where to look, it's obvious.
3rd Feb 2024
Seed of Chucky (2004)
Visible crew/equipment: When Tony Gardner is beheaded, you can just barely see a black wire at the top of the frame to pull his head upward for a split second. (Pausing helps but is not required if you know where to look.)
3rd Feb 2024
Seed of Chucky (2004)
Visible crew/equipment: When Glen approaches the animatronics of Chucky and Tiffany in the FX room, you can see a bounce card reflected in Glen's eyes. Given he's facing a wall, there's nothing else that could cause such a reflection in his eyes.
3rd Feb 2024
Seed of Chucky (2004)
Visible crew/equipment: As Glen escapes on the truck, when he turns to camera, you can see a very, very obvious reflection of a bounce-card on his eyes. (There's absolutely nothing else that could possibly be creating such a consistent reflection given he's on a moving vehicle.)
3rd Feb 2024
Seed of Chucky (2004)
Visible crew/equipment: When Psychs is threatening Glen with the rat, you can pretty see a reflection of set lights and bounce cards in both Psych's and especially Glen's eyes during their closeups.
