Factual error: Toward the end of the film, when Gary is riding a bus from Wyoming through Nebraska he should be traveling towards the east. As the bus pulls away from the stop near Loma, Nebraska the sun is on the left side of the bus, indicating that it is traveling to the west.

Continuity mistake: When Mitch is eating the sandwich brought to him by Griff, he originally takes a bite out of the right corner of the sandwich. A later scene shows him taking a second bite but it is now on the left side. A few scenes later, the bite mark returns to a single bite mark on the right corner of the sandwich.
Factual error: Although set in rural Wyoming, Einar's truck is a mid-60's Mercury brand pickup. Mercury brand trucks were only sold in Canada.
Einar Gilkyson: I expect you to be nice to who ever comes to my door.
Griff Gilkyson: Yes sir.
Einar Gilkyson: Unless it's some guy looking to sell his angle on God. There's no excuse for that bullshit.
Mitch Bradley: They call 'em accidents cause it's nobody's fault.
Einar Gilkyson: Do you believe they're still sending junk mail to my boy?
Nina: Well, maybe the dead are flattered to get a letter. Ever think of that?
Einar Gilkyson: I'll let you know when I'm gone. Maybe I'll send you a postcard from the other side.
