Suggested correction: It's not very dark outside, you can see the light from in the widows. It's just that's lot of windows are covered up so it's hard to tell. But the front door is in alcove with a roof eave over it that puts it in the shadow, which makes it look dark behind him.

Continuity mistake: LaPaglio wears the same clothes in both scenes while at his precinct: yellow shirt, black leather vest. Must have been filmed on the same day.

Suggested correction: I often wear the same thing on different days. Since I have several identical shirts, I sometimes wear what appears to be the same thing on subsequent days.

Continuity mistake: When Charlie goes onto the roof after Rose gets stuck by the closet, the lights are off in the hotel room because the power is out. But when they show Charlie climbing out of the window, the two windows in the shot have lights on, as though there were lights on in the actual rooms.

Suggested correction: You can see the lights come back on as Charlie is running towards the window. The power comes back on before he gets on the roof.

Question: I read somewhere that Mike Myers and Neil Mullarkey contributed a lot of stuff to the script for this movie (which ended up in the final movie), but were denied onscreen writing credit. Why?

Answer: The Writers Guild of America (WGA) determines who is credited and how, so they would have arbitrated this. In 1992, the LA Times reported that several writers had been involved in the script including Myers and Mullarkey, but also Howard Zieff, Barbara Benedek, Sally Robinson, Conan O'Brien and Carrie Fisher. In 1993, the LA Times reported that the WGA had awarded Robbie Fox sole story and screenwriting credit on the film.
