The Return of the Living Dead

Factual error: One zombie, who's rotted away all his organs, has two eyeballs looking good as new. Even if eyeballs didn't rot, they would fall out with nothing to hold them in. Just like the half of a woman zombie that talks with a soft sultry voice but with rotting or missing vocal cords.

Factual error: At the beginning of the movie, we find out it's July 3rd, 1984. Burt tells Freddy and Ernie to have a good 4th of July weekend. July 3rd 1984 was a Tuesday.

Visible crew/equipment: In the scene where Burt and Spider take the cop car to go get help, after they back up from the group of zombies in the street. You can see a cameraman in the front passengers seat holding a camera with a blinking red light on his shoulder as they drive away.
