“Terminator” Goofs List

  • Continuity: When the Terminator is stalking Kyle and Sarah in his police car, the sticker on the driver’s door reads ‘To care and protect’. When the car is later wrecked in a tunnel, the sticker has changed to ‘Dedicated to serve’.
  • Continuity: The police clerk looks up from his desk to see headlights coming at him. When we see the front of the car, the headlights are off.
  • Revealing mistakes: During the police station massacre, the camera is positioned on the floor, and shows the Terminator shooting through a door on the left. As he fires his gun, the supposedly dead cop in the foreground can be seen to jump.
  • Audio/visual unsynchronized: During the police station shoot-out. The terminator uses a shot-gun to shoot at an office. But it makes the sound of an automatic weapon.
  • Miscellaneous: Obvious stunt double for the Terminator when he first turns the police car around to find Sarah and Reese.
  • Crew or equipment visible: When the Terminator is rising to his feet after getting blasted out the window, a production vehicle and a huge stage light are visible behind him.
  • Audio/visual unsynchronized: Just before the Terminator kills the power to the police station, he comes to a door at the end of a hallway. He fires his shotgun, but we hear the sound of the machine gun instead.
  • Continuity: The black pickup truck that Sarah rolls onto its roof appears soon after undamaged.
  • Continuity: As Sarah is talking into the tape recorder, the microphone is up to her mouth. As the boy takes her picture, the microphone is not visible in the photograph of her and her dog.
  • Continuity: The terminator’s supposedly cut-out eye is visible through the sunglasses.
  • Revealing mistakes: Tanker truck obviously being towed.
  • Revealing mistakes: Near the end when the truck the Terminator is driving blows up, it’s obviously a model. This is made clear mostly by the front grill. Instead of a metal grooved and indented grill like on the real truck, during the explosion we see a front grill that is obviously a piece of silver cardboard with a few black strips of cardboard stuck on top of it.
  • Revealing mistakes: As the tanker truck is pursuing Sarah near the end of the film, the parked car that the truck smashes is already badly damaged from a previous take.
  • Continuity: When Reece and Sara are in the parking garage. Reece reaches over the rolled down window of a car and unlocks it. When they get in and close the door, the window is clearly rolled up all the way.
  • Continuity: When Reese tosses the third pipe bomb, we can see that the pick-up and motorcycle are almost at the end of the tunnel. But when Reese tosses the fourth bomb, the two vehicles still have a long way to go. After the fourth bomb explodes, the truck and motorcycle have cleared the tunnel.
  • Revealing mistakes: The wire pulling the tanker truck is visible several times.
  • Continuity: When the Terminator gets into the tanker truck, there is a close-up shot of his left hand grabbing onto the type of door handle that protrudes from the door, and pushing the button on the handle with his thumb. But when the Terminator is chasing Sarah and Kyle with the truck, the door handle is the rectangular type that is recessed into the bottom right corner of the door.
  • Revealing mistakes: Obvious stunt double for Kyle when he and Sarah are switching sides in the pick-up truck.
  • Continuity: In the tanker truck scenes, the truck’s wheels go from Daytons (five-spoke hubs), when it is running over the Terminator, to Budds (10 lugs) with aluminum wheels when the Terminator is chasing Sarah, to Budds, with five-hole steel wheels when the truck is burning. The truck also changes from an International Cabover, to a Kenworth Cabover (two round headlights change to four smaller round headlights).
  • Revealing mistakes: Obvious dummy for the Terminator when he is sliding on the asphalt after getting hit by the pick-up truck.
  • Continuity: In Tech Noir, there is a man wearing a white and black tank top on the dance floor. In the next shot, the same guy is standing behind Reese as he’s preparing to fire at the Terminator.
  • Continuity: When Reese starts his explanation in the Ford LTD, he appears to have a brand new wound under his lower lip. When he continues his explanation in the other car (which is only a few minutes later) the wound has been healed and replaced by a scar.
  • Continuity: Reese’s burns/scars.
  • Continuity: In the parking garage Reese’s shotgun goes from sawn-off to full length as he breaks the dashboard to hot wire the car. Before this and after this he is shooting at the terminator with a sawn-off shotgun.
  • Revealing mistakes: At one point during Reese’s explanation, Sarah begins to say ‘Ky…’ and then stops herself. Linda Hamilton obviously forgot that Sarah doesn’t ask Reese’s first name until much later.
  • Continuity: In some scenes, Reese has a clean shaven face. In others, he looks like he’s growing a beard.
  • Continuity: The bandage on Reese’s right hand disappears when he and Sarah climb into the black pick-up truck. During the following chase, it is back on his hand.
  • Continuity: Position of Sarah’s right hand (on Reese’s cheek) before she starts kissing him and when she is kissing him.
  • Continuity: The burning cab that the Terminator jumps out of is not the same type as the one he jumps into.
  • Continuity: When Sarah tries to escape from Reese in the car, he is seen grabbing hair. In the next shot, his arm is in front of her chest. The next shot shows him grabbing her hair again.
  • Incorrectly regarded as goofs: The three ‘Sarah Connors’ are listed in different sections in the phone book when Reese, The Terminator and Sarah Connor look them up (right page, left page, right page). They might have been different editions, though books at pay phones are generally all replaced at the same time.
  • Continuity: The second Sarah killed is given the full name of ‘Sarah Louise Connor’. However, she is listed in the phone book as Connor, Sarah Ann.
  • Incorrectly regarded as goofs: When Reese and Sarah Connor get back from the police massacre, Reese is bleeding from a bullet fired by the Terminator. While the car’s windows were not broken during that gunfight, the driver’s window is either rolled down or missing, and he could easily have been hit through it – or indeed he may even have been hit by a stray bullet while making his way through the police station, which, throughout the Terminator’s attack, is riddled with gunfire.
  • Continuity: The broken window in the Gray Ford changes sides during the movie.
  • Continuity: When the Terminator comes through the window after the police chase, he turns on a light to reveal his damaged right eye. However, when he sits down to fix his arm, which is also damaged, his damaged eye is his left one, and it remains this way during the rest of the movie.
  • Revealing mistakes: During the police station massacre, you see the terminator get shot, then you see the shooter get shot and when the camera goes back to the terminator only then does he have the fresh bullet hole in his chest.
  • Continuity: When the Terminator stumbles out of the burning cab, he collapses and burns in the fire. Its skull is clearly shown burning with no internal machinery. Later, when it rises out of the fire, it does so from underneath wreckage of the cab. These two inconsistencies have led some to erroneously believe that there was someone else in the truck.
  • Continuity: The events from the time Sarah and Reese arrive at the hotel until the love scene are all during the day. In the middle of this Sarah calls her mom’s cabin and talks to the terminator. The shot of the cabin is at night, as is the following shot of the terminator riding his motorcycle. Then everything is daytime again until he arrives at the hotel.
  • Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): When the Terminator is heading into the gun store, there is a sign on the glass that says ‘Clearnce Sale’.
  • Continuity: The message on Sarah’s answering machine goes, ‘Hi there… Ha-ha, fooled ya. You’re talking to a machine…’ with a pause between ‘Hi there’ and ‘Ha-ha’. When the Terminator has shot Ginger, the answering machine starts and we hear the words immediately following each other. Also, when the police call Sarah’s apartment, the message changes/speeds up; it is much quicker.
  • Revealing mistakes: Shortly after the Terminator in his police car discovers Reese and Sarah in the Cadillac, Reese hot-wires the car and starts to speed away. For the
