Stupidity: When the bellhop is in the elevator and it looks like this is where he loses his arm, he spends a few minutes trying to stop the elevator. All he had to do was let go of the luggage and he would have been able to easily bring his arm in.

Charmed (1998)
Plot hole: When Phoebe and Cole are using the apple peel to find out her true love how does she not recognize that it is Cole? Even with the mask it's very clear that it is him.
Suggested correction: I was thinking the same, but it's possible she thought he was an ancestor/past life of Cole. When she visited her own past life, she recognized everyone there because of their "souls" so maybe she thought the same with him. Although you'd think they'd acknowledge that a little.

CSI: Miami (2002)
Stupidity: After talking to the bartender, Calleigh goes back the lab and talks to Caine, and he wonders if they got a false positive from the vic's blood alcohol. Calleigh then gives a detailed description of how that could happen; Caine already knows how (obviously this was done for the audience, to explain it, but in the context of the show, it makes no sense).

Charmed (1998)
Other mistake: After Sam uses the powder on the sisters, erasing their memories, they're visited by Leo who starts to say "he must have gotten the powder" and one of the sisters finishes with "our mother." But in a later episode we learn all white lighters have this powder.

Scream (1996)
Trivia: After the guests leave and Randy is alone on the couch watching Halloween, right as the ghost-face walks in, the Halloween theme begins. In Halloween the beginning of the theme means the shape is near.

The Girl Next Door (2004)
Stupidity: When Matt goes to the bank to close out the account he learns that it's been closed already by Kelly. Matt says he will be expelled, but he never did anything wrong except lie about who Kelly was. The bank teller is the one who was flirting with him and gave him the money with out any proper ID or papers, so if anything the bank would reimburse Matt/the school.

CSI: NY (2004)
Other mistake: Hawks is handed a pretty small container with some of the victims brains in it, and says there is about 50% of the brain still left out there to find. There is no way half of a brain is in that small container, it's not even filled all the way.

Jason X (2001)
Continuity mistake: At the beginning they show a close up of Jason, the skin around his eyes and ears (around the outside of the mask), are flesh colored and looks like normal healthy skin. When Adrianne takes his mask off during the autopsy they skin is grayish like it's decaying.

Jason X (2001)
Continuity mistake: When Rowan is stabbed by Jason she slides down to the floor and freezes sitting up. She remained undiscovered and undisturbed for over 400 years until the scientists find them. So how did she end up lying on her back covered up by what look like exhaust tubes? Aside from the unlikelihood of no-one stumbling across her for all that time.

CSI: Miami (2002)
Other mistake: When Boa Vista and Wolfe find the blotch of red marker ink under the tape from the bat it's a solid big red blotch, they determine it was transfer from the killer's hand. Then they show Cody holding the bat and he only has a small red smear on his hand, not even close to the amount needed to leave that kind of stain on the tape.

Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare (1991)
Plot hole: The pipe bomb that Maggie uses to kill Freddy is the same one that was found in Spencer's room earlier in the film. It's already been established that Freddy was erasing the people he's been killing from existence, so that pipe bomb wouldn't be there to use on Freddy.

Haven (2010)

16th Feb 2017

Plot hole: At the end of this movie, (1988) Kristi and Katie's mother died. In the first Paranormal Activity (2006), when the psychic is visiting he says it feeds off negative energy, and Micha says "I guess we can't have your mother over anymore."
15th Feb 2017
Jason Goes to Hell: The Final Friday (1993)
Plot hole: It appears no one even did the slightest bit of police work in the murder of Jessica's mother, if they had they would have seen evidence that Steve's story was true. Like evidence of someone going out the window and the cop's fingerprints on the knife.
30th Jan 2017
Fast & Furious 6 (2013)
Continuity mistake: In scenes showing how Letty survived the explosion it shows her crawling out of the car then getting blown down the hill, but in Fast and Furious she is still in the car when Phoenix shoots it, causing the explosion, so she couldn't have been blown down the hill.

The Secret in the Service - S11-E17
Plot hole: The chute is supposed to be so narrow that it injured the Secret Service agent's shoulder, but is wide enough for Hodgins to fit down comfortably in a sitting position.
24th Jan 2017
CSI: Miami (2002)
Plot hole: Alex determines the actress is only about 18 because her wisdom teeth haven't erupted yet. The problem is they don't always erupt, I'm 32 yrs old and mine have never erupted.

CSI: Miami (2002)
See no Evil - S9-E3
Continuity mistake: In the beginning the kidnapper has a large build, like a football player, but later when he's in the van with the girl his build is much smaller.
23rd Jan 2017
CSI: Miami (2002)
Factual error: After Horatio shoots out a window in the lab everyone starts waking up immediately, it would take much longer than one second for the gas to leave that size of a room and the people's systems.
16th Jan 2017
CSI: NY (2004)
Character mistake: When Flack and Lavoto are in the car he says "I never would have pegged you as an undercover" but he already knew she was, she told him this when they first met in season 9 episode 1.
