Factual error: When Christian Slater and Minnie Driver are trying to get out of the water before it reaches the transformer, there is a real big problem with this scene. If there really was a flood and it was rising that high, the city should have shut off the electricity to the entire city, to prevent any electric hazards that may happen in that situation.
Hard Rain (1998)
Directed by: Mikael Salomon
Starring: Morgan Freeman, Christian Slater, Randy Quaid, Minnie Driver
Continuity mistake: Near the end when Karen is handcuffed to the banister, in one shot her hands are handcuffed but not to the banister. This is before Tom shoots the handcuffs to free Karen.
Audio problem: When Jim has been pushed out of the boat by Sheriff in the church, his voice is heard echoing "no" at exactly the same time that he is spitting water out visually.
Trivia: The original title of this movie was "The Flood."
Henry: I'm going to row back there and see if he will shoot you. Or me. It's fine either way.
Tom: I was looking for a place to hide it.
Wayne Bryce: From what? Swamp Thing?
Tom: Watch your step.
Question: What music is playing in the background of the church when Christian Slater gets knocked out?
