Just something to notice about Peter Jacksons cameo: He eats the sandwich and it's covered with embalming fluid. Gross point in a gross, yet pretty cool, movie. See more...

Mistake Factual error: As the Thug Zombie is on top of the lawnmower and is getting hacked to bits, his body parts don't fly off. E.g. his arms would've flow out everywhere when the blade reached his shoulders, and the same goes for his head.

Mistake Continuity: The zombie baby keeps changing size throughout the movie.

Mistake Continuity: When Lionel's mum gets bitten at the zoo, the colour of her sleeve material changes from black/dark blue to light blue.

Mistake Revealing: As the three zombies go rabid at the house party, and McGruder and Thug tear the skin off a guy's face, the switch from actor to dummy is visible.

Mistake Continuity: Despite being absolutely drenched with blood during the zombie massacre, Lionel's sweater and pants are completely dry in all the following scenes. His pants are amazingly clean, too.

Mistake Continuity: After being bitten by the rat-monkey, Vera's hands are empty. In the next shot she has her handbag, a tissue and a glove.

Mistake Continuity: The chain for the necklace is on the left hand side of the medallion when it stops spinning . But when they show it again before pulling away there's no chain on it at all.

Mistake Continuity: Just after the Kung-Fu Priest scene, and Lionel is feeding the zombies tranquilized porridge, Nurse McTevish swallows some and it pours out of her throat. After Lionel has put it into the nurses throat, the porridge has disappeared.

Mistake Other: As Lionel is hanging from the ceiling and the zombie priest and nurse come toward each other, the pitchfork that Uncle Lez shoved into the priest impales the nurse and it is covered with blood. A split second later it is clean.

Mistake Continuity: When Roger drops a box off at the shop, his clipboard jumps from his hands to under his arm.

Mistake Continuity: When Lionel takes the zombie baby to the park, you can see he's got it caged behind barbed wire so it can't escape. But in an earlier shot, when he walks past a couple and shakes the pram about, you can see the barbed wire isn't there.

Mistake Continuity: In the park Selwyn rips all of the stuffing out of the teddy. In the next shot all the stuffing has vanished.

Mistake Continuity: When Paquita is trying to get Rita back on her feet, and the top of that zombie's head slides toward them, Paquita kicks it. It flips onto its side, but the next shot has it sliding right way up again.

Mistake Revealing: When the Thug Zombie has been torn in half and it is crawling toward Lionel, you can see the shadow of the actor's body being dragged behind it.

Mistake Continuity: Lionel stands in front of iron bars as he tells the story of his father drowning. Once he finishes the story, the bars are gone.

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: At the park Selwyn makes Lionel fall backwards and his head nearly hits the swings. Then as Selwyn gets up you can see black rods attached to his arms.

Mistake Continuity: In one scene Lionel is cleaning bloody footprints off the floor. Then Paquita comes round, and Vera eats her dog. Then Vera attacks Lionel, and they roll down the stairs. As they roll down the stairs you can see the footprints are now different from before.

Mistake Continuity: After Lionel is swallowed by his mother's stomach, he is absolutely covered in blood and intestines, but in the next shot, when he's helping Paquita, he's nearly clean.

Mistake Other: When Lionel has been dragged back up to the ceiling by Thug Zombie's guts, chews the intestine, falls back down and collides with a zombies head, he doesn't really make any contact with it and yet it STILL explodes...

Mistake Other: Towards the end when the top half of the zombie thug is on the lawnmower blades, you can see the jets of 'blood' being sprayed up at different angles.
