Revealing mistake: When David Arquette is preparing to drive his rocket car, he does a u-turn to get pointed in the correct direction (towards his friend who is filming). The image is reversed at that point, so that he appears to be driving from the passenger side of the car.

Starring: Winona Ryder, David Arquette, Joseph Fiennes, Ty Burrell
Continuity mistake: When Farley drives through the fence after tying the rope to the front bumper of his van, the rope remains tied until the head on shot of him looking terrified traveling straight down crashing toward his buddy, Simon, when the rope disappears. Magically, it returns (still tied to the vehicle's front) a 10th of a second later in the following side shot of the van, right before crushing poor Simon. (01:07:50)
