Mike Ragan, Bobbi Jordan, and Louis Quinn in The Wild Wild West (1965)

Goofs

The Night of the Death Masks

The Wild Wild West

Edit

Continuity

James West gets shot in the lower right shin, but in the next scene he has a bandanna wrapped around his thigh. Not any where close to the blood and ripped pant leg where the bullet supposedly grazed him. Update: Note that the injury from the bullet was in the upper calf, too close to the knee for an effective tourniquet to be tied below the knee, so tying one above the knee is the best location. Also, the thing wrapped around his leg is the tie he took from one of the dummies he encountered.
Just after West is shot in the leg, he hobbles over to the 'dead body' and discovers it is a dummy. The close-up of the dummy's face clearly shows the top button of the shirt buttoned - but does not show a tie around his neck. West clearly unties the dummy's tie and ties it around his leg as a makeshift tourniquet.
When West takes the dummy's tie to use it as a makeshift tourniquet, he wraps it once around his lower thigh. Later, after he wakes up, it is clearly wrapped around twice.
After the fight with the troopers, Jim's hair is messed up as it would be after a fight. As he walks out the door with the lady, his hair looks blow dried.

Factual errors

At 41:06, West shoots two holes in the side of a horse trough at a guy hiding behind it. However, the water in the trough shoots up in the air before the holes appear in the side of the trough.

Miscellaneous

After Jim wakes up from passing out in the bar, as he's walking across the floor, turning over dummies, you can clearly see his kneepads through his pants.
At 27:07 when the camera pulls back and up to reveal the deserted town at night, in the upper left corner of the shot just past the back lot storefront you can see several pairs of headlights briefly moving from right to left in the distance.
There is no bullet hole in Jim's pants after getting shit. Not to mention not near enough blood. Even for a minor gun shot wound.

Plot holes

Character error

When Gordon wakes up on the stagecoach after being drugged, he takes no notice of either the mustache or the eye flap on his face. In fact, he never wipes his face with his hand after waking up - and after being drugged, one would think that wiping a hand across one's eyes and/or face to clear the cobwebs would be a normal action.
