Continuity mistake: In the airplane, the window shade in the seat next to the main character repeatedly opens and closes between shots.
Continuity mistake: After the old folks turn into kids, Harry, the boy with the glasses, is seen climbing up the side of the house, yet in the next shot, he is running through the bushes toward the camera.
Revealing mistake: As Mr. Connor flies into the retaining wall after being thrown from the Vietnam setting, you can see the "stone" structure wobble.
Trivia: In the opening, the two guys are discussing TV shows including Twilight Zone. They specifically mention the episode with Burgess Meredith when his glasses broke. Meredith was also the narrator during the movie.
Question: I don't understand how they finished filming the first story if Vic Morrow died. It's unlikely that they would've filmed it all, then done the stunt where he died. Could someone please explain it to me?
Answer: They'd already filmed most of the episode. The stunt was one of the final scenes to be filmed. They were able to work the story around any missing scenes.
