9 Baffling Horror Movie Mistakes You Never Noticed

9. George Clooney's Tattoo - From Dusk Till Dawn

Robert Rodriguez's From Dusk 'Till Dawn has a couple of infamous blunders. George Clooney's vest changes from white to black in-between shots. Characters are covered in blood one moment and are bone-dry the next.

But the most common mistake in this vampire extravaganza revolves around the neck tattoo of Seth Gecko. Even though Clooney's character is riddled in ink, this criminal usually wears a jacket so the tattoo on his throat is the only one that's regularly visible.

Now, fake tattoos are tricky to maintain in film since they have to be constantly repainted and touched up for the sake of continuity. It's even harder to maintain when the marking is an asymmetrical swirl like the one that Clooney bears.

Throughout the film, this tattoo disappears, reappears, changes position, and changes style. In the last scene, it noticeably smudges, proving it's totally fake. Considering this tattoo has nothing to do with the story, it makes you wonder why the crew bothered since it just made their jobs so much harder. Imagine how easy it would've been for the continuity guy if Clooney had a tattoo of a skull or a smiley face instead.
