Continuity mistake: When Roger shoots the blue car during the chase sequence towards the end of the film, the car does several rolls on the grass and loses its hood in the process. But in the next scene, when we see the car rolling from a different angle, the hood has suddenly re-appeared.

Continuity mistake: When Roger rams the red truck during the car chase scene, it is on the right hand side of the road, but in the next shot when the truck collides with the RV, the red truck is seen on the left hand side of the road.

Continuity mistake: When the RV is being pursued by a white truck, Roger throws off one of the scramblers from the rear bike rack. When we see him doing this, the RV is driving down a narrow single track road with bushes on each side. In the next scene, we see the white truck driving along a much wider road with a central divider.

Revealing mistake: During the car chase towards the end of the film, the man who is trying to put gasoline in the RV gets killed when he is hit by the by-pass. The 'dead' man falling off the RV is a dummy as its legs and arms look unnatural.

Continuity mistake: During the car chase at the end, a white car is heading towards the RV and Kelly shouts, "Roger, look out!" Roger then swerves to avoid the white car, and you will notice that the RV has a smashed head light. In the next scene we see the view from the white car and the RV is going past it again with a completely intact head light.

Continuity mistake: When the RV leaves the holiday park after the group find Ginger killed, Frank puts his coat on a chair and drives off. But when Alice opens the cupboard to find a rattlesnake hiding, we cut back to Frank, and he is wearing his coat again.
