Goofs

When Cheryl transforms into a demon and goes close up to the camera, you can see where her fake teeth begin (her real gums are showing).

When the helicopter first crashes through the ceiling into the cinema, the casing around the base of the rotor blades is missing or broken off, but in the very next shot it is in place and intact.

In the scene where George and Cheryl have climbed out onto the roof of the cinema, a shot across the city skyline shows that there is a crescent moon. In the final shot of the film, a full moon is visible in the sky on the right hand side of the screen (it's the same night).

What is the Metropol?

The Metropol opened its doors on October 25, 1906, as both a theater and concert hall. In time, the theater section became redundant. Five years later, the building then functioned as a movie theater, the Lichtspiele Mozartsaal, and, during 1926, UFA took over its running. In 1930, a new look brought modifications and the look of Art Deco. By 1942, its name became Nollendorf Palast. In 1951, it became the Metropol, which, also, had known many names: Mozartsaal, Mozartsaal Cinema, Nollendorf Palast, and the Neue Scala. In the 1970s, disco was its outlet and club kids enjoyed what was then the most popular nightspot in West Berlin.
