Mistake Continuity: At the prom scene after the bucket of blood has fallen there is a frontal shot of Carrie without the tiara she had been wearing. The subsequent overhead shot shows the tiara clearly visible.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where Carrie is looking at herself in the mirror in her room, the glass smashes and you see the fragments fall on the dressing table. On this dressing table there is a night light figure of Holy Mary holding baby Jesus and it has clearly been broken. Later in the scene, you see the night light again and it is intact.

Mistake Revealing: At the very end, when the girl is walking towards Carrie's grave site to place flowers on the grave, a car in the distance crosses an intersection backwards, giving away the method used to create the weird walk - playing the film in reverse.

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: When Carrie is hurling knives telekinetically at her mother near the end, spot the wire attached to (and subsequently controlling) the last few knives, particularly the vegetable peeler.

Mistake Continuity: At the end when Carrie's mom stabs her in the back and she rolls down the stairs,we can see blood on her back.But later when Carrie has telekinetically killed her mom and is dragging her into the closet,the blood has disappeared.

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: As the house is crumbling in on itself in one of the last scenes, there are a couple of shots of the ceiling being pushed in by some 'unseen force'. if you look closely as the last bit is falling, you can catch a glimpse of a hand and black sleeve pushing it in.

Mistake Continuity: When Carrie breaks a mirror in her house late in the movie, you could see it was shattered. But when her mother enters, the mirror only has a few cracks in it. If Carrie put the pieces back with her mind, wouldn't there be more cracks?

Mistake Continuity: The 1967 Chevelle SS changes to a GTO, then back to a Chevelle as it crashes.

Mistake Continuity: When Billy and Sam are placing the pigs blood above the stage, Billy spills three drops of blood onto Sam's torch, but in the next shot there is only one drop on it.

Mistake Revealing: After killing her, Carrie drags her mother into the closet, yet you can see her mother is walking.

Mistake Continuity: When Carrie and her mum are eating apple cake, Carrie tells her mum she's been invited to the prom and her mum puts down her cup of tea, still holdng the handle. In the next shot her hand is away from the cup.

Mistake Continuity: When Carrie makes the ashtray flip off of the Headmasters desk, a mess of ash and cigarettes fall onto the edge of his desk, but in the next overhead shot, the desk is clean.

Mistake Continuity: When Carrie is talking to the gym teacher on the outside bench, in the wide shots Carrie's hair is perfectly flat but in the closer shots, there's a big spot on her left side that's sticking out.

Mistake Continuity: When the teacher reads Tommy's poem in class, the position of Carrie's hair constantly changes from in front of, to behind her shoulder.

Mistake Revealing: When Sue Snell wakes from her nightmare, listen carefully as her mother comforts her. At one point, she calls her Amy, which is the actress's real name (they're mother and daughter in real life).

Mistake Continuity: The amount of pigs blood on her Carrie's face and dress changes, after it is dumped on her, through a couple of shots.

Mistake Continuity: After Carrie wreaks havoc on the high school prom and exits the high school Gym at the end keep an eye on the streamers in the windows. They aren't even burning. You can tell the fire is super-imposed by the camera.

Mistake Continuity: When Carrie's mother locks Carrie in the closet, Carrie takes a box of matches, lights the match, then lights a candle and places the matchbox down on a Bible. In the next shot the matchbox is gone.

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: When Carrie is hurling knives telekinetically, the first knife which hits her mother in the hand, you can see the metal protection plate that the knife actually hits instead.

Mistake Factual error: In the DVD theatrical trailer for "Carrie," Stephen King's name is misspelled. It is spelled "Steven".
