10 Horror Movies That Accidentally Filmed Things You Weren't Supposed To See
7. The Red Shirt - Gremlins
After Gizmo's offspring turn into gremlins, Billy's mother, Lynn, finds herself being attacked by the devilish critters. Hearing a noise in the living room, she suspects a gremlin is lurking inside a Santa stocking. After she hacks at the stocking, she discovers the gremlin had placed a wind-up toy inside as a decoy. (Never explains how the gremlin put the toy in there.)
Hearing a noise from behind, Lynn whizzes around, only to see a pair of glowing eyes from the Christmas tree. Before she has time to react, the gremlin jumps at Lynn, causing the tree to topple onto her.
However, Lynn should've noticed the gremlin wasn't alone if she gazed at the tree a little closer. If you look at the exact moment the tree is falling, you'll see it's been pushed by a crewmember wearing a red shirt!
Okay, movie mistakes like this happen all the time. It's not a big deal.
However, this slip-up stands out due to the crewmember's choice of wardrobe. If he wore a green shirt, he would've easily blended into the Christmas tree. But because the crewmember wore a red shirt, he's really easy to spot.
