Revealing mistake: When Mulder and Scully are talking to Theresa at the diner she suddenly gets a nosebleed. If you look closely at her forehead/nose you can see the flesh coloured tube that pumps the blood. (00:33:20)
The X-Files (1993)
1 revealing mistake in Pilot
Starring: Robert Patrick, David Duchovny, Annabeth Gish, Gillian Anderson, Mitch Pileggi
Visible crew/equipment: I don't know if this is visible in all formats, but on the newest UK release on DVD, watching in widescreen, it's amazingly obvious. When Mulder recovers from the vampire attack, he gets up from the floor and breaks up a chair to make a stake. There is a shot of his feet as he smashes the legs off and bends to pick up a piece. In the bottom left hand corner of the screen, you can see a crew member's hand carefully and quickly placing a piece of wood on top of the pile for Mulder to pick up.

Mulder: Great, now my crotch will be up all night.
Trivia: The Cancer Man smokes Morley cigarettes, a fake brand that has appeared in a number of TV shows and movies since the '60s.
