Mistake Visible crew/equipment: As the camera follows Cooper's grenade on the floor, we can briefly see the shadow of some equipment move along the floor.

Mistake Continuity: When the troop is having a rest, Cooper says "I have a cracking story about this place". Joe is sitting with his hand in a paper bag. When it cuts to a close-up of him, he is resting his hand on his waist.

Mistake Factual error: When the house explodes, the only survivors were Private Cooper and the dog, who were hiding in the cellar. With an explosion big enough to destroy the house, the cellar would have been destroyed too, if not from the fireball then definitely from the shockwave.

Mistake Continuity: In the beginning with the campers as the guy says "You were right, this is definitely better than being," the girl is holding her cup with both hands around it. When it cuts, she is holding the handle of the cup.

Mistake Continuity: When they get to the house, there is no fog surrounding the house. When they park the car and get out, fog is completely surrounding them. The fog appears and disappears several times.

Mistake Other: The werewolves have cut the power to the house, but in half the scenes there is an electrical light source. How is this possible?

Mistake Factual error: Quite a few of the squad actually hold their weapons in either hand, in other words sometimes they have them left handed (Cooper actually has it left handed throughout). This is seen when they are together, so it is not through flipping of the negative. Apart from the fact that it is highly unlikely they would be skilled enough to be this ambidextrous, the SA80 is almost impossible to safely use this way. The ejecting cartridges would be fired out far to close to the face to be safe - if you look at the weapon in some shots you can see the port through which they are ejected - it is covered with a flap behind the cocking handle on the right hand side of the rifle).

Mistake Continuity: After Spoon has reported the status on their ammunition, Cooper places his gun on the table. When it cuts, a piece of paper suddenly appears beside the gun.

Mistake Visible crew/equipment: In the scene where Spoon is used as a distraction he jumps out of the bedroom window, when it goes to the werewolf's point of view you can see the set of ladders he had to climb up to get to the "window", (as the house is just 2 walls and scaffolding). This is pointed out in the DVD by one of the producers.

Mistake Continuity: When the werewolf comes through the window and pulls Terry out, the damage on the blinds differs between shots.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where Ryan tells Cooper to shoot the dog, Ryan pushes the gun parallel to Cooper's chest, the barrel is horizontal. As the camera view changes, the barrel's direction changes, pointing up at a 45 degree angle. The pistol continues to do this 3 or 4 times as the view switches back and forth.

Mistake Continuity: The way the camper guy holds his cup changes during the shots. This can be seen as the cups handle points in different directions.

Mistake Continuity: When Sam the dog has a mouthful of Wells's guts, some of the guts are hanging out of Sam's mouth. When it cuts, no guts are hanging out of his mouth.

Mistake Continuity: When Cooper locks himself in the bedroom towards the end of the movie and looks for a way out, the wash basin does not sit on its support, a gap can be seen, but the next time it's seen it sits flush with the support. Also Cooper kicks at it rather tentatively actually not making contact a couple of times before a feeble looking touch sends it crashing.

Mistake Continuity: When Wells crashes into the oven, the bottom plate comes off and the gas hose falls out. He cuts the hose and in the next shot the bottom plate is suddenly back on the oven.

Mistake Continuity: When the camper guy gets his present from his girlfriend, he looks at her while saying "It's perfect". When it cuts, he is suddenly looking down.

Mistake Continuity: When Joe is complaining about missing the football match and Sgt. Wells says "Yeah, well it's nothing like this at all, is it Joe?", Wells is holding his hand under the front part of the machine gun. When it cuts we can see him resting his hand on top of the front part of the machine gun.
