Scream (1996)

Visible crew/equipment: When Drew Barrymore runs away after the killer just called her 'blondie', there's nobody behind her character, and yet a new shadow is cast on the wall to the left when the camera follows her around the corner to lock the front door. (00:03:50)

Scream 2 (1997)

Visible crew/equipment: Hearing about what happened at Omega Beta Zeta, Derek tells Sidney "let's get you home" and when she gets inside the camera comes closer to Jerry O'Connell for a dramatic shot...that catches in frame part of the stage light. Actually spotted by Wes Craven during the DVD commentary track. (00:38:35)

Visible crew/equipment: We get a good view of the Oscorp corridors, in particular the one outside the closet where Gwen and Peter hide. They kiss and there's a lovely light seeping through the door's window; when they start making out and also quickly when they open the door you can actually see the big spotlight that emits those warm rays.

Ghostbusters 2 (1989)

Visible crew/equipment: Vigo just knocked down the heroes who are looking at him powerless. Vigo then makes a gesture and parts the crates behind which Peter hid Oscar. As he does that gesture you can spot in the background on the left (mostly in the darkness) someone's arm doing the same (the movement is not exactly the same so it's not a mirror). (01:34:35)

Visible crew/equipment: One of the punks wisely escapes the beating making a run for it with the paper bag containing the cash. The shopkeeper curses him ""He got away with all my money, the son of a..." As Kurt turns the corner and the camera follows him, the camera casts its shadow on the wall. (00:04:45)

The Suicide Squad mistake picture

Visible crew/equipment: Waller is telling "Task Force X" about the additional mission they need to pursue, saving Rick Flag. Watch the shot when Bloodsport repeats "Rick Flag?" and Waller replies "I know." The team is going through dense, uninhabited tropical jungle, but in the trees there are people in T-shirts just standing around looking at them. (00:31:50)

The Mandalorian (2019)

Chapter 12: The Siege - S2-E4

Visible crew/equipment: The kid actors in the school scene several times break fourth wall looking very distinctly at the camera. The kid directly behind the Child does it right away as Carl Weathers brings it there, and when Gina Carano is heading out there's a kid in the foreground who steals a worried peek at the camera, impossible not to notice. (00:09:05)

Voodoo Passion (1977)

Visible crew/equipment: Throughout the whole intro, most bandmembers, in particular the second drummer from the left, are more focused on peeking at the camera than on anything else.

Visible crew/equipment: During Gibbons' funeral, when the camera pans up to eventually catch Vin Diesel sitting in the gallery, a few extras (such as the woman two rows behind the one with the flaming red hair) look up following the movement of the crane. (01:36:10)

Visible crew/equipment: The two protagonists are on their tour bus, driving to the tourist pick-up spot. When they get there and get off the bus to greet the tourists, you can see in the shadows behind them the real driver shifting into neutral and trying to sneak out of the way. (00:05:35)

Letter to a Duchess - S4-E6

Visible crew/equipment: Magnum stops in front of the bar building on the beach of the King Kamehameha club asking his friends about his odds. They laugh him off, of course. In Tom Selleck's close-ups you can spot in the sunglasses TC's reflection far in distance with his yellow polo, but there's a man standing much closer that shouldn't be there. (00:04:10)

One More Summer - S2-E16

Visible crew/equipment: Higgins is walking the lads through the now oh so empty estate; when the camera pans all the way back, to the right of the frame you can see there is in fact someone else in there; it is the animal trainer who gives instructions to the dobermanns. (00:26:50)
