In the scene where the power station is turned back on, they show several electrical things turn on by themselves. The third thing they show start up is a dryer in a laundromat. This wouldn't start for 2 reasons. One, the timing mechanism would have timed out months before. And, 2, the dryer would need its start button held in while the motor started up. [The timer could have been at the beginning of the cycle when the power was initially interrupted, and not all dryers need the start button held to start. Many laundromats I've used in the past would start as soon as the door closed, there was no start button.]

When the crazy-man that says the end is coming dies in Arizona, his body ends up in New York [He was always in New York. Randal Flagg was in Arizona and sensed The Monster Shouter (the crazy man) spouting off about the end and used his powers to kill him. No mistake here.]

At both the first town meeting and when the power first gets switched on, Harold is shown to be unhappy and brooding in all his close-ups, but in crowd shots he's smiling and excited. [When he appears to be smiling and happy, he's faking it. The close-ups are meant to show how he really feels.]

In many scenes throughout the movie, there are corpses strewn about. The only people who die instantly were the ones in the Army lab, the rest suffered from the flu for 3-4 days before dying. It makes sense for people to die in their cars while fleeing cities but, for example, there is a corpse sitting on a tractor when the four men are walking to Vegas, and a scene with a diner filled with corpses. With people dying everywhere and everyone is sick, no one will be drinking coffee or plowing fields. [This is actually true to the book, where dead people were found in various "every day" poses all over the place. People fool themselves every day, and with the onset of this killer super-flu, many people convinced themselves that they did not really have it (Claiming it was hay fever/allergies or a cold, nothing more), or that they would survive this like they had survived other flus before. So they kidded themselves into continuing with their regular lives, until they passed out, and eventually died, in their seats.]
