Crew or equipment visible: After Melanie delivers the lovebirds to the Brenner home, the camera follows her as she walks back along the jetty to her boat, with the dolly track clearly visible.

Incorrectly regarded as goofs: When Melanie gets out of the boat after the seagull attack she appears not to have her purse on the pan-and-scan version.

Revealing mistakes: When Melanie and Mitch are together on top of the bluff at the children's party, each person casts two sets of shadows.

Revealing mistakes: When Melanie is climbing upstairs we see her shadow on the wall, even though the only light source is the flashlight she is using.

Factual errors: Many times, the car is on the wrong side of the road.

Audio/visual unsynchronized: In some shots, the car being driven by Melanie has no gear shift. The engine shifting sounds are obviously from a manual transmission, but she never makes a shifting motion with her right arm.

Continuity: Just before the gas station explosion, gas is shown running into the left rear tire of a red car. The next shot of that car, taken from a little farther back, shows gas running near the tail of the car but the area around the tire itself is completely dry.

Revealing mistakes: When the children are running from the school while being attacked, the birds attacking them cast no shadows.

Continuity: After the seagull attacks Melanie on the boat, her hair appears disarranged. The next shot shows her hair neatly arranged again.

Continuity: When Melanie brings Lydia some tea, while Lydia is in her bed, Lydia's hair first looks disarranged. Then her hair is neatly arranged, the next shot it is disarranged again.

Continuity: When Melanie gets out of her car and approaches Mitch's front door when she first arrives for dinner, she's wearing no glove on her right hand. In the next shot she turns to greet the family approaching from the yard, and is wearing both her beige gloves.

Audio/visual unsynchronized: When Melanie Daniels is driving the lovebirds to Bodega Bay you can hear the car changing gears from a manual transmission. But the gear shift lever is reflected on the floorboard of the car and has no hand on it and never moves, and it appears to stay in neutral.

Audio/visual unsynchronized: 89 When Melanie is driving to Bodega Bay, her car is heard accelerating, but her foot is flat on the floor, not on the pedal.

Factual errors: When Melanie is lying unconscious after the birds attack her, Mitch gives her some brandy to 'alleviate' the pain. However, in no way should he be giving her this because any liquids given to an unconscious person could cause them to choke, and they should especially not be given any alcohol.

Revealing mistakes: When Mitch tries to close the window shutter as the birds attach, his hand is extremely bloody. However once the window is closed, there is much less blood showing.

Continuity: At the end of the movie when Mitch gets in Melanie's car to take it out from the garage, he closes the window of the car. After a minute when he gets of the car in front of the garage the window is open.

Continuity: While in the car when the crows attack the school, Melanie's left hand is by her head when she beeps the horn. In the next shot, her hand is on the steering wheel while beeping the horn, the next shot her hand is by her head again.

Continuity: In the phone booth, Melanie has her back on the phone. But in the next shot, she is by the phone not front.

Continuity: After two birds break the glass on the phone booth, it appears that the glass isn't shattered when Melanie is grabbed out of it.

Continuity: When the gull attacks Melanie, at the 24th minute, we see Mitch jumping from the pontoon twice: once from Melanie's point of view, then a second time from the pontoon. And Mitch's attitude is clearly not the same in the two shots.

Continuity: When Midge is pulling Melanie out of the attic, he gently drags her out, and one of her shoes comes off. However, when he is carrying her down the stairs, she has both shoes on.
